I shall be popping into my nearest Aldi this
weekend, apparently they are targeting the 'horsey set' as the Daily Mail
headline puts it. They are launching their own cut-price equestrian clothing
range to kit out horse riders for no more than £50 (god, I'm sure I paid more
than that for just jodhpurs in the past). They don't say whether their range
will include ancillaries such as crops or whips.
Equestrian Life magazine editor Zoe Molesworth
described Aldi's move as 'fantastic' and added 'Riding, whether for competition
or leisure, is at an all time high in the UK'. I wonder if leisure would broadly
include my particular interest.
It occurred to me Aldi is German owned, right, so
they're bound to be decent quality. And as for crops well German riding
instructors are noted for their strictness aren't they
or have I just been having dreams again.
Have a fun weekend.
Have a fun weekend.
