Dress code reminders
Western boots or equine lacer with sewn
on sole and drop-down heel (minimum of
1/2”) are required in all events using a
saddle except for riders being rescued
and Bareback Relay riders. While
competing, riders must wear neat, clean
attire suitable for a family orientated
equestrian event. No ripped jeans or shirts,
no shorts or cut off pants or tank tops
permitted. Long pants are required.
Sleeve length is rider’s option. Sweatshirts
or jackets are permitted over approved
shirts. Western hats are preferred, but
baseball caps and visors are permitted as
long as they do not contain alcoholic
beverage, cigarette, tobacco, or
narcotic advertisements or logos, or crude
or offensive language or innuendos. All
clothing, hats, and equipment are subject
to Judge’s approval. Judges have the
right to inspect clothing or equipment at
any time. Judges must give a mandatory
warning prior to disqualifying any rider for
improper attire or equipment. The Judge’s
call is then not contestable. This rule on
attire applies
to all shows except Interstate. Interstate
requires clearly identifiable western wear
and baseball caps, visors, and similar are
prohibited. Western wear or polo shirts
may be designated by show secretary,
must be clearly identified on entry form
and posted at show office.
