2. Chaps That Keep You Cool 

Ultrasuede chaps have become a staple in the show ring for good reason. Lighter and cooler than leather, Ultrasuede offers comfort, and its vibrant colors stay true, even through multiple washes. These chocolate-colored chaps feature a two-button back, fringed leg trim, and a silver buckle set at the front, giving them a sleek, classic look. $499.98; hobbyhorseinc.com.

3. Chocolate Caiman Boots

This chocolate boot by Macie Bean offers the look of exotic leather at a more affordable price, thanks to its realistic print design. While it may not be made from actual caiman, the striking pattern still delivers a bold, eye-catching look that’s perfect for the show pen. You’ll get the same standout style without the premium cost. $234.99; nrsworld.com.

4. Your Go-To Show Blanket

With its mix of dark espresso brown, sand, and chocolate tones, this oversized show blanket is a classic choice. These versatile colors pair effortlessly with a wide range of horses and tack, making
it a great option if you’re looking to have just a couple of go-to blankets in rotation. $250; emcustomshowpads.com.
