Video: Fitting an Equestrian Safety Vest

Equestrian safety vests are required for eventers during the cross-country phase, but many riders in other disciplines are choosing to invest in the added safety of a body protector. If you’ve never worn a safety vest before, or it’s been a while since you tried a new one on, you probably have a lot of questions about finding the right one. In this video, Caitlin McConnell from Tipperary Equestrian helps Horse Illustrated Managing Editor Holly Caccamise select the vest that fits her best.
