You should wear show pants that match the color of your chaps. You shouldn't wear jeans unless it is a small local open show or if your a man.

How did english horseback riding start?
-English riding is not only in England -Its really fun though -A common activity in English riding is showjumping in which you are judged on how fast you complete the course and how many errors you made. I do this. -another activity in English riding is dressage which is a very diciplined riding technique where you are judged on a variety of things like being precise and behaviour of your horse. - saddle and bridle etc. is different to western -English riders wear helmets/hard hats rather than cowboy hats like western -You also wear breeches, chaps, boots and carry a crop -If you are thinking of participating be prepared to fall off, be bitten etc. but its worth it in the end when you know how to ride. -The jumps and lines into jumps all have different names -There is a wide variety of horses used for English riding. Hope this helps
