#BlackFridayBreeches

Derriere Equestrian are joining in the #BlackFriday fun!

#BlackFridayBreeches

"Black Friday is the day following (Friday) Thanksgiving Day in the United States (the fourth Thursday of November). Since the early 2000's, it has been regarded as the beginning of the Christmas shopping season in the US, and most major retailers open very early (and more recently during overnight hours) and offer promotional sales. Black Friday is not an official holiday, but California and some other states observe "The Day After Thanksgiving" as a holiday for state government employees, sometimes in lieu of another federal holiday such as Columbus Day. Many non-retail employees and schools have both Thanksgiving and the following Friday off, which, along with the following regular weekend, makes it a four-day weekend, thereby increasing the number of potential shoppers. It has routinely been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005, although news reports, which at that time were inaccurate, have described it as the busiest shopping day of the year for a much longer period of time." Wikipedia
Our Derriere products are highly sought after and loved by riders in all corners of the globe. We felt this year, as treat to all of our dedicated brand riders, we should enter in with the Black Friday fun and offer a fabulous opportunity to replenish the breeches drawer! An amazing offer of buy one get one free!

Rotating underwear frequently, as well as using the suggested care instructions will greatly extend the comfort and life of your underwear. Although there is no set lifespan of your underwear, use your judgement when it comes time for replacing them. Use the same rules of comfort and fit as you did when you purchased them. If your underwear doesn't fit well, your outerwear will not look good. Take a look at our full range of garments for both the male and female rider.

New 2015 Seam lines ~ Fantastic Buyers Feedback ~ Breeches Offer


If you were a Derriere rider prior to June 2015, you may have noticed that our seam lines have been changed and improved.

Every pair of Derriere Equestrian underwear still undertakes over 50 quality control tests and is still produced using bonded seam lines, but this has been enhanced through the very light, very stretchy, simple seam that is now protecting the bonding.


This improvement was not lightly taken as we know how much our customers love our products and features, but the secure stitching ensures complete longevity of the garments, even when washed at higher temperatures. You can be assured that the stitched seam is so slight that it will not rub or irritate even the most sensitive of skin!


Since the launch of our new seam line, our buyers have been thrilled with the quality and how soft and discrete our seamlines are. We continue to receive feedback every week, from riders who say our products have literally changed their lives. Riding in the combination of Derriere Underwear and Derriere Breeches allows for total comfort, ultimate discretion and wave goodbye to any form of rubbing, chaffing or discomfort from traditional seamlines. 

For a little Breeches Treat take a look at this:

Katie Bedwin's Derriere Equestrian Endurance Season Roundup Blog 2015

DE Endurance Season Roundup Blog

They say time flies when you’re having fun and that can certainly be said about the 2015 endurance season! It seems only yesterday that I was planning the events for the year, and now I’m reminiscing about what a brilliant season 2015 has been, whilst watching my horse’s grazing in the field on their winter break.

I always set a main goal for each competition horse at the start of every season so that all of my team now what we are aiming for and how we are going to achieve it. Every horse is different, and I am fortunate to have three current competition horses at different levels.

My aim with my top horse Elayla, was to complete our first CEI *** 160km, which we completed back in April in a respectable 2nd place. Since then Layla has gone above and beyond my expectations, picking up a 1st in a 80km YR class, 2nd in a CEI ** 120km and 3rd in the prestigious Red Dragon 160km.

A big surprise for me this season is how far I have got with my home bred part bred Arab, Burfield Goodie Two Shoes. At only 13.3hh, my plan was just to see what happens this season, but yet again she has gone above and beyond my expectations. Before March this mare had never competed above 32km, but to date she has now successfully completed 5 80km classes, and won her first CEI * 80km back in September.

I am very lucky to have been given the ride of Penhwnllys Samala De Mons, or Marley as she’s known at home. Marley is only 6years old and has a big future in front of her. Having only started competing her in August we have achieved a lot in the short time we have been a combination. Before this time Marley had only competed up to 40km, but in September she completed her first 80km class and came 2nd. This has put her in good stead for her upcoming International debut in 2016.


In total this season I have successfully completed 1434km just in competition alone and not 1km was without my derrieres. They have become a part of my essential riding equipment and now I will not ride without them! My lucky pair may even have become part of my essential exam equipment for my A levels exams, but that’s another story….

With the only event left of the endurance calendar being the Annual National Awards Dinner at the end of November, it is time for me to start planning for the 2016 season, and I can all ready see with so many horses to ride I am going to need to become Lorenzo the Flying Frenchman!  As always I have big plans for next year, but I will obviously have to wait to see how the horses come out of their winter break and start their training in the middle of December.  With Layla qualified for the Young Riders European Championships and the Senior World Championships, these will take priority and her season will be tailored towards these championships and the selection process to get there. I hope that Shoes will have her first attempt at a CEI ** 120km class in 2016, whilst also having a slightly mad desire to take her up to Scotland to do the scary Cairngorm 100miles in 24 hours! In order to start on the International ladder Marley needs to complete another 80km and then she will be ready to do her CEI * 80km early next season.

Meanwhile for the rest of the year I am concentrating on my next horse to start on the endurance ladder. 4 year old, Nahzira Bint Chatanz, or Izzy as she’s known, is backed and ready to go and is enjoying schooling and her first baby steps out hacking. She has a long way to go before her first competition, but I am looking forward to her making her endurance debut in 2015.

So this just leaves me to say thank you Derriere for all the support I have received this season and here’s to many more Derriere Endurance miles! The entire season in my lucky derrieres and I actually wore for all my A- level exams because I hoped they would be lucky for exams as well as horses!

Well done on a fabulous season Katie from Team Derriere
We are right behind you all the way ;-)

Derriere Equestrian's Dressage Star Of The Future Rider Erin Orford Reports On Her Season And Her Derrieres!

Derriere Blog Update November 2015

Erin Orford


The 2015 season has pretty much come to an end and the last few months have been fairly busy, with 3 Internationals over 4 months, supported by the BD National Championships in September.

At the beginning of the year I gained the ride of Annie Whittet’s Dior UKH (Pimms) a 12 year old 17hh chestnut mare by Dimaggio, and I can’t express how proud I am of her performances this year and how far we have come together. It always takes time with a new horse, finding out what makes them tick and particularly with all the demands of travelling and staying away at different venues, Pimms was definitely thrown into the deep end! Thanks to our amazing support team and my trainer, Stephen Moore (who to say has been instrumental in our success this year would be a huge understatement), we’ve managed to get to grips with her fairly quickly.


After strong performances at Hartpury in July, she finished winning all 3 classes at Bishop Burton CPEDI 3* in August on PB’s before becoming Grade 2 National Champion in the KBIS class at the BD Nationals in September. The following month we completed our last International of the year at Bury Farm CPEDI 3*, where we were crowned overall Grade 2 Champions, Grade 2 Freestyle Champion and was a member of the winning GB Team. On top of her competition results I am thrilled with how much her confidence in the arena has developed and she really feels like she’s enjoying the big atmosphere – she loves to show off to an audience!

 
















As a result of our performance, according to the FEI, I’m now ranked #26 in the World (across all Grades), the 6th highest Brit and currently the 6th highest Grade 2 in the World - an amazing achievement in our first year together! In December, we have our last World Class Team GBR Squad Training of the year and then we will be into the 2016 season…campaigning for Rio Paralympics! Next year ,all eyes will be on selections for Rio, and with only 5 spaces for Team GBR, as always, competition will be tough, but we are ready to give it our best shot!


I’m proud to have been representing the Derriere brand and take #ThePerfectSeat message around the country with me! 

The underwear, in particular, is a lifesaver for anyone in the saddle and helps to prevent any discomfort that may have otherwise hindered your enjoyment with your horses. It was great to catch up with Claire at the Nationals and see the new products and I’m looking forward to a successful, and comfortable season in the saddle next year!

Many Thanks

Erin
