[RC] Equissentials - Kristi Schaaf

HHMMMM...well, why don't you let Susan know what you
think? I practically live online 8 hours a day, so I
have the knowledge/ability to go to a manufacturer's
website to glean info on possible purchases (and
usually obtain better pics), no matter where I make
the purchase. : - )

And I paid the seemingly outrageous price because once
my tights 'wear out', Equissentials will take the
leather (which accounts for a big chunk of the cost)
and put them on a new pair for a minimal cost and the
third or fourth time (can't remember which), they do
it for free. So my investment should last me decades,
at least hypothetically! That said, even though I love
the security of leather on leather, they're a bigger
pain to wash/dry than plain ol' tights so they
definitely have pros/cons.

I visited this site based on your recommendation on
Ridecamp.  This is what I would pass on to the
the site's proprietor.  My opinion is, before I am
going to be willing to pay $100+ for a riding *tight*,
I want to see a much larger, more detailed,
higher-resolution photograph!

The Endurance Leather-Seat Boot-cut tight costs $237
(more than most quality breeches) and the best
photograph supplied of the item is a paltry 5kb
198x240 pixel image? I'm thinking more like 350kb and
600x800 *at least*!

If someone already knew that this is what they wanted,
(perhaps because they had seen them at a ride), such a
pic would be adequate.  But for anyone studying these
tights for the first time and wondering just what it
is that makes the manufacturer think that they can
charge $237 for a riding *tight*--well...the photo
supplied does not make the sale!

Life's a journey, so enjoy the ride (and try not to fall off)
