I recently started english riding, and can't afford britches, riding boots, etc. What I'm wondering if what I have right now is good or safe enough for schooling in an indoor arena. Right now its summer where I live, and my riding gear consists of:
- Certified English riding helmet
-A short sleeved T-shirt ending just below my waist
- Tight jeans
- Rubber boots with an heel, but a low one, that go up to about 5 inches below my knee.
Do I NEED to buy professional gear if I'm not jumping or doing very fast work?
Also, if you have some general riding tips, those would be greatly appretiated!
