A Beginner's Guide to Foxhunting

Attire

For fox hunting, traditional attire typically includes:

  1. Hunt Coat: A tailored, usually dark-colored coat (often navy or black) that fits well.

  2. Breeches: Light-colored breeches (cream or tan) made from a durable fabric.

  3. Boots: Tall, polished leather boots, often with a slight heel for riding.

  4. Shirt and Tie: A crisp white or light-colored shirt with a hunt tie or stock tie.

  5. Hat: A black or dark-colored top hat is traditional for formal hunts; a helmet is often worn for safety in less formal settings.

  6. Gloves: Leather gloves are standard for both style and grip.

  7. Accessories: Consider a waistcoat or a hunting vest, especially in colder weather.

Make sure everything fits well and allows for movement while riding!
