All About Equestrian Gloves

Gloves are used for different things in equestrian sports, as they are sometimes worn for safety and protection and other times they are worn strictly for show. It all depends on the events you are participating in. In horse shows, gloves that match the color of your boots are usually worn. In some events white cotton gloves are worn for show. If you are just out riding your horse, it’s a good idea to wear gloves for protection and warmth. Make sure the gloves are lightweight, but strong and durable and that they have some padding in the palms for protection. If they are summer gloves, they should be ventilated and breathable to keep your hands cool and dry, while giving you a good grip. Gloves come in various styles, colors, sizes and materials.
