WHAT TO WEAR

Rule number 1

Be practical

You'll be mostly outside and you'll be clocking up some miles walking through the 1200 acre park, no matter what the weather decides to do. So, for all that walking, whether on the paved roads, muddy tracks, dusty paths or dewy grass there's nothing more practical than the waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX-lined leather Country Boot range from Dubarry of Ireland. Save packing multiple pairs of shoes for your trip, take the one pair that will get you across a muddy field, then hose off and dress up for dinner or tailgating.

Dubarry Boots have become synonymous with spectating at the Three-Day Event.

A gentleman can never go wrong with a good tattersall shirt

Rule number 3

Expect real rain and hope for none

As the saying goes, "There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing" ... Pack a real raincoat. This will turn a rainy day from a wash-out to a winner.

We suggest something mid-to-lightweight and to allow for layering underneath (see rule #2).

Dubarry offers a range of great waterproof and breathable top-layer options, from our sporty Aquatech range to our spiffy Country Collection.

Rule Number 4

Accessorize

Accessories not only allow you to stay more comfortable in weather extremes but they can also help to finish your outfit.

A hat is one of the most important accessories whether for sun protection, warmth, rain or style or all of the above.



Spruce it up! A special pair of gloves, the right belt or bag or a sporty country motif on your tie or scarf can finish the look.

Good socks turn great boots into amazing boots. Whether you're looking to benefit from the comfort features of our technical socks, a color pop from our Alpaca socks, or the warmth of our faux fur-topped liners, we always recommend good socks as part of any long day out.

Rule number 5

Pick a Day to Dress Up

While the sport of Eventing has a very inclusive 'come as you are' attitude toward inviting spectators, it can add to your enjoyment of the event if you choose to take part in some of the traditional pageantry that surrounds equestrian sport by selecting a day to dress up.

This could be Cross-Country Day if you're tailgating, the stadium Jumping Day or one of the Grand Prix Jumping events scheduled for evening entertainment at the Horse Park during the Five Star. For this, you can't go wrong in classic country style, like one of our Tweed Jackets teamed with some of our layering pieces and accessories
