The Best Riding Tights For Summer

Horse riding tights are the big buzz-word in the equestrian world, and it's obvious why: they're easy to put on, comfortable to wear, and packed with features to enhance your time in the saddle. They're also stylish and look a lot like yoga pants, so a lot of riders are wearing their riding leggings on and off the yard, and even to the gym! Hey, why not, if the technical fabrics are just as helpful for exercising on and off your horse?

Summer riding tights are further designed to make sure you're comfortable when the weather turns warm, the days get longer, and we get to spend more time at the yard. Breathable, lightweight fabrics can stop you feeling overheated, sweaty and constricted when the Sun is already trying it's best to make you uncomfortably hot. We've brought together some of our favourite summer riding leggings to help you choose a pair that suits you and your riding, and to stop you getting hot and bothered in breeches!
