TRANSCRIPT:
Hi there, it's Colleen from Ride Proud. How are you? I'm good.
It's cold up here. In fact, it's been bloody freezing up here.
A funny thing happened on that this morning I was messaging with a girlfriend friend of mine who lives down on the coast and we were saying how cold it is up here at the moment and she's warmer than me down there on the coast.
And we were saying, yes, bloody freezing. And then I got a message from another businesswoman from down south and she said to me, “is it cold up there?”, me,” yeah, freezing”
And I've been telling my mate how I'm sitting here in the office and freezing. I've got an oil heater between my legs, I've got my gum, sorry, my Ugg boots on, but it is cold in here. This office is actually an old carport that we've converted to the office. So, the Roof's not insulated and it truly is cold.
But when this woman messaged me from down south and I said, yeah, it's cold. And I picked up my phone so I could tell her the temperature. It's 22 degrees even I know that's not cold.
So, I was a little bit embarrassed about whinging about the chill in the air, but that's how people in the tropics feel about the winter.
Having said that, it is absolutely stunning out there. It's a typical North Queensland winter day. It's a clear blue sky. It's magic. I can't wait to get out there this afternoon, but I'm not here to talk about the weather and you don't want to hear about it.
What I do want to talk to you about this week is what we've got going on this week. Do you know that next week is International Selfie Day? Are you into selfies? Maybe you are.
A lot of the kids are into selfies.
It's not my thing, but I absolutely love receiving your photos and I appreciate every single one that comes in. And I want to tell you about our photo galleries. Have you seen the photo galleries on the website?
If you go to the website and.
Go right down to the bottom, into the footer, you'll see some dropdown menus there. And in that menu is a photo gallery. So, we've got fantastic photo galleries in there of you guys wearing the pants. I've got one for Equitation, one for the trail, one for the trainers, one for the horizon. I want one for the limited editions. I really love that. I have got a couple of photos there. If women were in limited editions, I'd love more. So, what I want you to do, please, is to send me your photos for next week. Send me your photos now. So, there are a couple of ways to do it. You can email them to me, you can go to the website and there's a little message bubble on there. You can click on that and send me a photo. There this is what I really love you to do. You can load them straight to the Facebook page or Instagram and tag us. If you just tag me with Ride.
Proud clothing, you'll have to use the three words because otherwise I won't.
It doesn't tag our page. I would love you to do that. And what I'm going to do, let's give it a week. Yes, maybe this time next week I'd love you to continue to do it. But what I'm going to do is I'm going to pick up all the ones that have tagged us or sent photos in between now and Wednesday. Next week selfie day is Tuesday, the 21 June. So up until the end of the 21 June, I'm going to go through them all and I'm going to pick one photo that I love. I love them all. I'm going to pick one photo and I'm going to send that person a gift. I don't know what it will be.
I'm actually waiting delivery of a fantastic new product.
Maybe I'll send one of those.
I'll think about it.
I'll think about what I'm going to send, but there'll be a gift in there for somebody who sends me photos. So please give it some thought. I really do appreciate it. And the other thing is, it's actually really helpful for other women to prospective.
Customers find it really helpful.
Sometimes I get photos, so I get emails from women who say, I really like the look of the pants, but I just don't know if they'll suit me. I'm not the same body shape or size as your models. Have you got any other photos? And what I'm able to do now is just flick them a link to that Gallery of all of the women wearing that particular style and they flick through it and they can see if they identify with any of those women. The other thing I get asked is I have a chestnut horse. Will that colour suit me? Is that colour a good choice?
And so, I'm able to say, well.
Have a look through, see what you think. So that's what I want to talk.
To you about today.
Something else I can tell you about is do you remember the blog?
How could you forget?
We sent the blog out last week.
About our confidence tips that Sue Franks wrote for us.Love the top, great service and even speedier than predicted
I’m 5’11” and finding nice riding shirts with long enough sleeves is not easy. I bought the Kaleidoscope button up and the Empress quarter zip and they both got great comments when I wore them! Even more importantly, *I* felt great in them! Thank you!
This is my second pair of the BEST riding pants! I love the fit and durable figure friendly material. I highly recommend.
The free gift did not arrive in the shipment but no matter! The pants are what I was looking forward to!
The comfort of the Gen 2 riding pants is tops compared to any other pant that I have ridden in. My lower back hurts me when I ride in jeans. With the Gen 2 pant there is no pressure. The cut of the suede seat is very flattering to a mature woman's shape and we can always use that. When wearing this outfit I feel put together, pretty, and ready for whatever the day will bring
Great service and nice to know I can swap clothes if I got size wrong.
Bought a gorgeous empress riding top. Its lovely and awesome service, thank you so much
My Riding Shirt in Empress is to dress for success!!!! Lots of “ohhhh where’d you get that?!!! Love it!!!” stateside. It fits beautifully, doesn’t cling on the back side, and I find I sit perhaps a bit taller in my saddle riding my fiery chestnut mare. Well done Ride Proud and, thank you!
I just bought my second pair of Legends. Not because my first pair is worn after two years of hard use, but because I want a second pant to change to for consecutive days of riding.
After such hard use the pant is as good as new except for the color in the places where the pant are touching saddle and horse and after countless times of being run in the washer.
The pant is very comfortable to wear both on the ground and in the saddle. And enough pockets to keep all the EDC items safe.
As a male rider there are not many good alternative's out there except for regular jeans, so this is what I recommend for all riders. And I regularly get compliments for having a good looking riding pants!
I just received this riding top. I have not had a chance to wear it yet, since it is too hot right now. I did try it on and it fits perfectly. The material is lightweight, but still very substantial and high quality. It looked amazing with black breeches and it will get a lot of use in the cooler months. I also bought one to gift to a friend who helps me groom at shows. It's a perfect one of kind gift.
As an English rider who does not like tall boots or even half chaps, I was thrilled to find Ride Proud pants, even if it meant shipping them from half way around the world (actually the shipping cost is super reasonable.) Kerrits and Irideon bootcuts are tight and the fabrics are thin, and to try to find any bootcut that doesn't have silicone is getting harder and harder to do. Enter Ride Proud. They have a substantial fabric weight, a suede full seat, and a generous inseam. Even better for my not-pear body type is that they fit in the waist as well as in the hips/thighs.
Customer service is phenomenal. This really is a business run by the owner.
My first purchase from Ride Proud didn't work out because the rise in the pants was too high. But some "mid-rise" offerings appeared, and they work great for me. Which brings me to two suggestions: since many of the styles of pants have nearly identical features, I'd love to see a chart developed for easy reference as to the differences. It would list features like fabric weight, pocket style, rise, fit (relaxed or slim), grip level, waistband style, etc., on one axis and the model of pant on the other axis, with checked boxes - or something that. The other suggestion would be to show an example of every color each pant comes in in the description, so there is no guesswork. These things would help customers to feel more confident in their purchases.
To sum up: Hallelujah for Ride Proud!
I loved this print but was worried how it would fit. You’re always taking a chance buying a new product online. Well, I wasn’t disappointed. This shirt is beautiful and the fit is perfect! I’m 5’4” and 130 lbs. and the medium was great! Not too big and not too tight! Everything about it was just right!
I spend a lot of time conditioning horses on trail. I love the full suede grip seat (super sticky for those unexpected spooks), the underfoot keeper keeps the pant leg from riding up and bunching at your knee, plenty of pockets, easy fasten at the waist band, and belt loops if you like riding with a belt. The pant withstands inevitable brush snags and do not tear like riding tights. They do stretch quite a bit with wear and I seem to be between sizes - the smaller size is a bit snug at waist and the next size up needs a belt to stay on. I’m an endurance rider and haven’t tried them on 25/50 miles yet, but I love them for conditioning rides!!
Riding Shirt in Windborne
I admit this stunning print seduced me immediately upon seeing it in an Ad. The top is stunning, quality fabric, construction & zip. A classic easy wash & wear piece -all boxes ticked for me. I look forward to purchasing your trousers next! Just brilliant, highly recommended. Thank you
Absolutely stunning bundle of Heritage Jeans and Riding Top in earthly tones. So so comfy I am wearing them other places. I have to say speedy to arrive and blown away to discover a free pair of socks. I am telling my friends these are the best - go shop!!!! This is where I choose to buy my riding gear. They have it nailed.
