Be honest, did our name seem a bit odd when you first heard it
Or maybe it immediately made perfect sense?
Here's an explanation of what the name Ride Proud means.
Everything, or nothing. In our case, it's everything. But you'll come to know that I don't do much without it having meaning or purpose.
For as long as I've ridden, I've worked on developing my seat; as my primary aid, it's the start of everything. (Hint: that's why our pants don't have back pockets).
I've studied it, I've researched it, I've done courses, clinics and lessons on it. Hell, I've travelled across the world to participate in clinics focusing on it. I've read and watched almost everything I can, and I've observed.
My findings?
To me, the most effective, most elegant and most admired riders all share a particular posture – and that posture is proud.
When I was instructing and correcting position, I would sometimes hear myself say 'ride proud''. I've found that when a rider can take that proud feeling into her body, her seat immediately improves.
I know, it's simplistic, but sometimes the best things are, aren't they?
This is a photo of me riding at a clinic in Europe a couple of years back. Yep, I'm bareback and on the lunge, and I'll take every opportunity I can to be lunged. It's so good for improving the seat.
Here's a challenge (or maybe it's not). Organise with a friend to ride bareback and on the lunge. Maybe you can take turns. I'd love to hear how it goes.

Thank you Colleen for your assistance in getting the size right - I sized down, and the 10s fit perfectly. They are a lovely pair of jeans. I am looking forward to riding in them.
I ordered a shirt and compass ants. They both fit true to size and were comfortable all day in the saddle.
Only riding pants I wear 🩷 perfect for social and riding
I accidentally got the wrong size, but hope to return for the correct one. Thank you for being very fast with the order.
I ordered 2 pairs of pants, the Horizon and the Trail and received a free belt which I absolutely love, it’s beautiful quality and I’ll definitely be ordering another belt in Congnac as soon as it’s back in stock, first class products, thanku again
super love it
I absolutely love these jeans!! Nothing like these in the uk, great fit and so comfy
I absolutely love the colours in this shirt. Can't wait to wear it when I get back riding this spring (I am Canadian 😊).
I was able to ride a few times since I got these new riding pants. First, I love the heavy duty material and comfy, stretchy feel.
I got two different pant sizes to be safe coming from the other side of the world so that one would fit. One fits perfectly and the other slightly bigger. I feel if I want to in the wintertime I can wear terminals under them. I live in a cold climate. Thank you for a wonderful product! I love them! (But when I filled out the forms for the free belt bonus, I did not receive it in my package.)
I haven’t ridden in the tights yet (horse has eye injury) but love the fabric and the cut and styling. I think I am in between sizing, purchased the Sml but the fabric was way too loose in the thigh and knee (I have skinny chicken legs)! The exchange process was dealt with quickly and smoothly and I tried the Xs - these fit great everywhere, only the waistband is a bit tight but I think that will change with more wear. Very comfortable to wear around the property, they look great, I am taking them with me to Scotland this week for some pony trekking. Ride Proud are a friendly and approachable company who are selling a quality product. Great socks as well. Thankyou Colleen for your wonderful customer service!
Last week I received my new pair of Equitation Pants. I had one of those before, and they're still my favourite among the different options. However, I hadn't expected to be soooo happy (again). First ride was in a little competition, and I think they even boosted my confidence (we got ten ribbons!).
Blouse is beautiful, jeans are stretchy and super comfortable.
I am short and had to hem my Tights. Worth it. They fit great while simply sliding on. Love the material, and the stitching is great!
The change from wearing breeches to riding trousers has been difficult. Apart from dragging over your thighs, the riding jeans have been brilliant. The stretch material reduces the drag when mounting; the soft material means all day comfort. The suede is equally light and not bulky, but does its stickability job quietly. It is subtle, allowing for the jeans to be worn casually.
The stretch waist band is a winner. Unfortunately, my small waist means a belt must be worn so the waist band buckles at the back.
I will definitely purchase a second pair when I do not feel guilty - I now have 5 pairs of Ride Proud trousers!!!!
Absolutely love my shirts! They are so well made, fantastic fit and beautiful patterns. I also love how the logo is hidden amongst the patterns. Well done Colleen. You should be so proud of the product you sell. 😊
