Comfortable Riding Tights = Carousel

[Rightrider@cs.com]

Have been using Carousel Riding Tights for years now and love them.  A number 
of reasons, first they feel comfortable on me (I usually wear the 
lycra/cotton blend in hot weather and the straight nylon in cooler weather).  
Second they are reasonably priced.  Third, while not "indestructable" they 
hold up reasonably well to all the daily wear and tear they are exposed to.  
I've worn the "indestructable" type and just didn't find them physically as 
comfortable on my body, and since the Carousel tights are moderately priced, 
I've opted for comfort even though I may have to replace them a little more 
often than some of the other brands I've tried. Third, they come in a pretty 
broad range of body sizes.  I'm a heavy weight and not too tall, and their 
XLarge/short fits pretty well.  Fourth, they offer the padding or NOT.  I 
don't like padded tights, where they are sometimes just the ticket for some 
of my clients, so I really like having a choice in the matter.  Fifth and 
finally, I've always found Coleen, the owner of the company, to be more than 
willing to work with someone on a special order (size, style, etc.).  Last 
plus, they have a wide variety of colors and special "fun" fabrics for leg 
stripes, etc. Donna Snyder-Smith
