what breeches to wear with a shadbelly?
hellooo!
so i have a pretty big show coming up this month, and i need my shadbelly for it.
i know that you’re supposed to wear high-rise breeches with it, but i was just wondering which brand/style would be best? i like tailored sportsman but i’m not sure which style would be best.
and if you have any suggestions, nothing over $250 please!
thanks!
Depends on what you want it for:
Dressage:
Stark White(You can also do a cream, but your coat HAS to be navy blue otherwise the colors don’t work), that comes up to your waist, full seat, preferably leather.
Some good brands:
High End: Pikeur, Trainer’s Choice, Cavalo
Mid Range: Ovation, Ariat, Kerrits, Irideon
Low End: Devon Aire
Jumping:
(I’m not as certain about this one) High waisted (perhaps not as high), tan breeches, knee patch again preferably leather:
Brands:
High End: Tailored Sportsman, Grand Prix
Mid Range: Ariat, Kerrits
Low End: Devon Aire
Pictures of good styles in each:
