Flying minis
Well-Known Member
so I'm just starting with the minis. Is a Western "rail" shirt appropriate for halter and halter obstacle and showmanship? I know it's probably fine for jumping and hunter? I've got a nice one that has the removable collar and cuffs, so I could wear it with a stand up collar for everything except showmanship, and figured it might be better with the collar and cuffs for that.
Otherwise, what is appropraite for showmanship? Does everyone wear the jackets? Going to a mini show in May, went only once before and only showed jumper and hunter, so this is kind of new. I show my Saddlebred saddleseat (no help there for clothes) and only limited western (which is why I have the rail shirt). I drive in a nice dress shirt, and use that for both the saddlebred and the mini, so have that covered (but may need to find a new shirt for that too LOL). At least all 3 of them are in the same color family (or can be, they at least all can do jewel tones, according to the Hobby Horse color wheel - they are pintos - silver dapple, grullo, and chestnut).
