Riding Clothing

I’m thinking of taking up horse riding. Should I buy the clothing before I start and what are the best items ?
I would buy a helmet. I would recommend one of the lighter helmets with the ventalation in them. Troxel is a good company, and you can find them fairly inexpensive. They are much more comfy than the traditional velvet helmets. Make sure that it fits snugly, you don’t want it to be loose.
You also need to have boots with a 1″ heel for safety.
Make sure you have a comfy pair of jeans, you may want to have a softer, stretch pair so that the seams don’t rub on your legs between the saddle.
If it is winter, you will want a good pair of gloves that will allow to to securely hold the reins, but will keep your fingers warm. A good jacket is important.
When you go, don’t be wearing dangly earrings and have your hair pulled back (make sure that it will still fit under the helmet).
A good place to look at helmets is your local tack shop. If you shop online, Dover Saddlery is a great place with great prices. But if you can, go to your local tack store, they are the best places, and people will be able to help you pick the right size and give you advice!
Good luck! Horseback riding is the best!
