I'm mostly a western rider, but I want to start doing english at shows. I don't have tall boots anymore, and now have jods and half chaps, but not leather ones for shows. Would jod straps be okay for shows, even though im 13? Or should I try to get leather half chaps, since I can't use my suede ones?

what is the usual price for half chaps? it's not like i'll be doing huge shows or anything. how do i know my size?
Well price depends on what brand, style, ect. you want. Leather ones are normally pretty expensive. And as for size you would have to try them on... different ones fit differently.. There are kid sizes and adult sizes. And the sizes are normally extra small, small, medium, large and extra large. If you are 13 then you will probably be in the adult sizes unless you have tiny calfs.

they are for kids under 11 usually. some people think even 12. i got tall boots when i was off a medium pony at age 11. so id consider getting half chaps :) :) :)

im not sure rly how to put it into words, but id think the best way wuld be this

its "traditional" to wear the straps. i know for a fact that in A-AA rated shows they will look at that in the ring to see if you are dressed properly. but if you are only doing small shows, then youll be fine :wink:
