One of the best equestrian-wear purchases I have ever made! I have owned my Kerrits Rain Pants for 5+ years. I purchased them at a local tack store in KC Metro. They are perfect for keeping your tan or white breeches clean at shows. For everyday barn wear, when the temperatures take a dip, or when it's windy, rainy, these are my go-to extra layer. They are not insulated, but make a huge difference in an extra, light-weight, warmth layer.
Side zippers are great for a quick off. But I usually zip to mine to the hip and then carefully pull my booted feet out through the waist area. It's faster for me than trying to restart full-length zippers again. with my arthritic hands.
My current pair are still going strong, but they are starting to show some wear at the ankles. I am ordering a new pair while they are still available.
I have also worn these Kerrits pants to other non-equestrian, outdoor events such as: football games, lacrosse games, theme parks, parades and I ALWAYS get compliments! Wish I had photos!
And, "No, I am not a product tester."
I'm just a satisfied Kerrits, equestrian, customer, granny in the Mid-West and jumping for all I can! Get over it, and, "Buy these pants!"
