So, what do you ride in? What brand and color saddle? What about the bridle? Do you use a special noseband? Any other pieces of tack you have? Pictures?
If you don't have a horse, describe the tack that your favourite lesson horse uses.

I ride my lease mare in a Courbette dressage saddle, which is mostly black, but the seat and knee rolls are in this other type of leather that I can't quite figure out. The leather isn't black, but more like a steel gray. Her bridle is not a from a certain brand (no marks to tell me otherwise) but it's a standard black dressage bridle with white piping and a simple caveson noseband. ^^

I have a beautiful chestnut Pessoa. I used to have a Courbette, but it was hard as a rock, so I bought something softer. I had to sell my horse though, so it has been waiting to be ridden in again. Sigh, someday. I do love the look of martingales on a horse, my horses used to wear them, I love the motion they give.

I don't know much on tack, besides what I use for western riding.

I ride in my regular clothes, a pair of jeans, and my long-sleeve coat to protect against branches that I sometimes hit while riding. I'm honestly not sure of the brands of either of the saddles that I use. One is a brown-red endurance saddle that I ride western with: http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w22/Katy_1355/KSaddle.jpg I only use this saddle on Kelly, who has a swayback he was born with. The other is a black and blue western saddle that I ride Jet with. http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w22/Katy_1355/JSaddle.jpg Both of these have large seats, despite the fact that I'm 15, and very slim. I'm borrowing these saddles from the same people I'm leasing the horses from, and they are a bit heavier than I am. Kelly's is a blue side-pull. http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w22/Katy_1355/KBridle.jpg Jet's doesn't use a bit, because she will just pull on it the entire time you ride her with one. http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w22/Katy_1355/JBridle.jpg

I've only just started breaking my cob, so for right now he's either bareback (best way to start any horse!) or wearing a wintec wide all-purpose that's a little too wide for him (but not for long!). I ride in a rope halter, but plan on buying a sidepull soon, when we start real training.

umm well i don't own any horse gear ( cept my helmet, pants, chaps, gloves and crop) but my horse uses a kimberwick bit, and my favorite saddle in the riding school is an Ian D. Miller Saddle.

My friend has all the tack at her house and she usually jus' gives me a english saddle and bridle. So I don't really pay attention to the brand, but it's something that begins with a W o.o sweatdrop ....WINTECH o.o or somethin' like that.

I ride in a chestnut brown Billy Cook Trail saddle, my favorite western saddle ever <3 its very comfy' -nod- I ride in a matching bridle, full cheek snaffle (sometimes a french link) and a set of havannah bown english reins (At the moment)

When I ride english - I was in a chesnut-ish Passoa, also very comfy. With a O-ring snaffle. No martingale (Unless really needed for a short time - like when riding my horse on the trail), in my opinion, its just another one of those quick fixes and I don't like long-term use out of them.

I ride in a black Kincade dressage saddle with no name stirrus and leathers. As well, I have a no name girth and black flash(noseband) bridle. I have three other bridles. One that I have never used (black dressage with white piping) a blood red one with a flash and braiding. And for shows I have a GORGEOUS black flash with silver piping....yeah

Oh, that's so cool, Isilwen|! My mum and I are huge lime green fans too! ^^ I ride dressage, so there isn't a lot of lime choices, but I know Western riders ahev quite a selection to choose from. |Mum and I have done nearly our whole kitchen in shades of lime. If we see a green spatula, it ours! ^^

I ride in a Circle Y roping saddle. It is a deep mahogany brown in color, and has some silver trim. It also has a running pattern on the leather, which I think is leaf-like, but I am not sure. I am going to have to pull it out of my closet and take a closer look, heh ^_^

I have a HUGE obsession with polo wraps. i have black, white, white with the dutch warmblood brand, navy blue, teal, burgandy, red with wrangler on them, sparkly navy blue, sparkly medium blue, orange and purple. It's an obsession I indulge in, espcially as a dressage rider! We have a great store in my city that sells polos in ALL colors. Lime green, blue, red, black, white, pink, purple, orange. ANYTHING! I love that place. heart heart
