Answer 1

Ask you local show people or registration people at your show

Answer 2

can u read this coz my answers aren't coming up :(

Answer 3

idk about the rules but if u r just doing trot classes, just wear riding pants, boots and a helmet! Just search and try to find a local store that sells that stuff. I recommend light, tanner colors because dark colors attract heat. Best of luck!

Answer 4

When I was competing in non-rated shows, I was allowed to wear a polo, tan breeches and I could get away with paddock boots and half chaps. For hunt seat equitation, you have to have to wear a white ratcatcher under a hunt coat with tan breeches and field boots. For the jump classes, you can wear a more colorfull shirt, but not too bright. If you're riding hunt seat, don't wear a black coat. Navies and grays are preferred. Good Luck!

Answer 5

If you are riding English classes, you wear traditional clothes, browns, greys, navy blue mostly, English attire.

Answer 6

I would call the people who are running the show and find out what the rules are.  Your trainer should also know.  Local schooling shows may not require proper attire.  If that is the case groom your horse well and pull it's mane.  You should be dressed neat and clean with riding pants, paddock boots, and a plain shirt.

If the show is more formal you should have your horse clean and braided.  You should also wear proper boots (paddock boots and guarders if you're under 12, tall boots if your 12 or over), riding pants, a shirt, a jacket, your hair should be under your helmet if possible.

In a formal show, follow these color guidelines for any hunter class:

Paddock boots should be brown or black with matching guarders.

Tall boots are black.

Breeches are Beige (Or Rust if you have brown tall boots)

You shirt can be colored as long as it is subtle

Navy Blue, or Beige jacket.

An equitation class is almost the same however you would not wear a colored shirt, you could also wear white breeches instead of beige (I wouldn't wear rust breeches), and your jacket should be navy blue.

Over fences classes require the same things as their counterparts in under saddle classes.  If you are in a show jumping class you may want to dress more towards the equitation side.  In some show jumping you don't need a jacket in which case I would say to wear a nice polo or sweater.  You can use a martingale in jumping classes, but always stick to a white saddle bad and clean tack.
