I'll start this post with a photo of me wearing my most "traditional" riding stuff, this is an old photo of Speck and I in the hunt field...and I am wearing a lot of stupid things (as you can see by the look on Speck's face, he feels the same)
Hairnet-Annoying to put on and has that knot that digs into your forehead leaving a red mark that stays there for the rest of the day
Stock tie-I HATE these, it feels like you are getting strangled and is next to impossible to tie, especially while on a galloping horse attempting to catch up with the rest of the hunt because they left without you while you were trying to tie the damn thing in your truck's rearview mirror. I eventually got the pre-tied version which looks equally as dumb as the one you tie yourself and does an equally good job of strangling you
Wool coat-Heavy, itchy, dry clean only. No thanks.
Tan/white breeches-The worst idea known to mankind, light colored pants around horses. They also look good on approximately 0.000000000001% of the population (which I am not a part of)
Tall boots-No pain no gain when it comes to breaking these in, and your feet freeze during the hunt. I'll pass.
