Winter has officially arrived so it's time for the first of several "How to survive the winter without going South" tips...
First you have to decide if your goal is to ride your horse through the cold, raw weather or simply be a passenger. On the days that actual riding is the goal you have to have the right breeches.

To find the right balance I rely on Kerrits Apparel. All of the fleece lined breeches are amazing! And the Pro Fleece Cross-Over comes in tan so it's my secret for staying comfortable on those cold and rainy competition days.
