Love Roeckls!

I got turned on to Roeckl riding gloves a few years ago when a friend gifted me a pair that didn't fit her. I know they're pricey, but they are so worth it. Since that first pair, I haven't even considered riding in anything else. 

I started with a plain black pair, but when those wore out, I bought a cute black pair with brown detailing. In the meantime, I also bought a white pair for showing. When the black and brown pair wore out, I moved on to the navy with white piping. Those have been my favorite, hands down.

Last wash job for this pair!

My navy Roeckls have been showing some serious wear though, and I am even starting to get some thin holes on the palm side. It's been time for a new pair for a while. The problem with Roeckls is that while they are AMAZING, they also cost the same as a month's supply of LMF feed. Or what it costs to trim Speedy's feet. Or half the cost of a local show entry. 

Yeah. They're aren't something I like to buy frequently. A second problem was that Riding Warehouse (the cheapest place for everything) doesn't carry them in the color I want - navy with white piping. Until now! Yep, that's right. I sent the lovely ladies over at RW an email and asked if they might pretty please think about adding some new colors to their Roeckl line up. I can't say I was surprised when I got a follow up email saying they would work on it. That's just how they are.

Over the weekend, the two-tone navy blue gloves and the cute black with red piping ($49.95) were added to Riding Warehouse's Roeckl collection. Guess what's now on its way to Bakersfield?

Navy with white

Black with red

Of course, I couldn't order just a pair of gloves, so a second tube of Body Glide is also on its way along with more fly spray. You can never have too much fly spray.

Riding Warehouse, you are simply awesome!
