    I guess I don't see your question?

    Like Hunter tack, nothing is explicitly prohibited—just considered unconventional.

    Have no tips for you because I can't braid worth a darn, but John (whose video you posted) used to braid my horses in Texas... He's a character but he was and still is the best braider I've ever...

    Haven't ridden in them yet, but I'll definitely report back after a few rides and washes. The Bradleys pilled terribly after just one or two washes, so I was really displeased with them. I used to...

    Really? Do you think you could go down a size? The seam on mine (wearing them now—LOL!) is about the same place as all my other Euroseat breeches. I might also just have a bigger butt. ;)

    Why was this edited/what did the original post say?

    I just got my pair yesterday (after being backordered forever) and I think they're pretty cute and nice for the price point. Haven't ridden in...

    You can get the VAT refunded. Also, yes, while the Euro and pound are stronger than the dollar, most European items (Pikeurs, GPAs, Parlantis, Animo stuff, etc.) are still much, much cheaper across...

    Her family has their own barn, Staysail, in North Salem. Craig Pollard manages the horses and I think Nikko Ritter works for them too?

    The cheaper soft-shells are obviously cheap for a reason—the fabric doesn't seem the rest as smoothly, or it looks "shiny".

    Unless you're willing to splurge on one the Grand Prix TechLite coats...

    Are you thinking of COTH's favorite European vendor? :lol: Or is there another who is equally terrible?

    Thanks!

    Proud to say that all three are from my barn... Skyfall would definitely be mine if I could swing it. :D

    You would be a 26R in Pikeurs as well. I've not found the sizing different.

    Safari is the tan (show-appropriate) color. I also like the navy and the anthractite.

    My only caution to you would be this: you might be showing favoritism to the rich clients, as they might be your bread-and-butter at the moment, but are they REALLY in it with you for the long haul?...

    I think that 3'3"+ is too broad for Jumpers. There's a big difference between a kid doing the 3'3" Ch/Ad Jumpers and someone doing the Jr./AOs at 4'6", so maybe a bigger jumper section if you think...

    Ruby Link mentioned it, but I LOVE the Purpose face wash... It's cheap and not a "fancy" brand, but it's soap free, so it's really good for sensitive skin. I don't necessarily have acne, per se, but...

    Canine SmartPak

    So, after spending money on a month's worth of SmartPaks, the dog's decided that he won't eat his food with the supplements on them.

    My misfortune is your reward. Want a month's worth of SmartPaks...

    I don't see why it would be illegal, or even how they could find out that it's being performed.

    From what I know about it (which is more about its use in humans, rather than horses), the blood...

    It was atrocious because it was a pro... I'm not saying pros don't ever miss, but a good pro will take a chip over a long spot any day. Sorry, but a long spot at 4'+ is pretty scary.

    I do agree...
