What size Dublin children's clothing should I order?
Dublin sizes children's riding wear two ways, and it helps to know which you are looking at. Tops, fleeces and the puffer vest are sized by age alone, within the Childs 6 to 14 range, though not every style is cut in every age. Breeches and riding tights are sized by age and waist measurement together, written as Childs 10/24 Inch: age 10 with a 24 inch waist.
How do I measure at home?
Measure round the natural waist with the tape snug but not pulled tight, then measure from waist to ankle bone for leg length. If the waist and the age point at different sizes, follow the waist measurement — a waistband that gapes at the back is the usual result of sizing on age alone. Not sure? Get in touch and our team will help you pick between two sizes.
Breeches or riding tights — which is better for a child?
Both do the same job in the saddle; the difference is how they go on and how they look. Breeches such as the Cammy Comfort Twill Breeches have a proper waistband and fastening, which is what most clubs and shows expect. Riding tights such as the Everyday Riding Tights pull straight on with a stretch waistband, which younger riders manage on their own far more easily.
A practical answer for most families: tights for lessons and yard days, one pair of breeches kept back for anything smarter.
What does "full seat" mean?
Full seat means the grip panel runs across the seat and down the inside of both legs, rather than just a small patch at the knee. That extra contact helps a rider hold their position in rising trot and over poles, which is why the Shona Denim Full Seat Breeches are a sensible first "proper" pair.
What should a young rider wear in winter?
Layers beat one thick coat every time, because children heat up fast once they are riding and cool down just as fast when they stop. Build it up like this:
- Base: the Sadie Panel Detail Long Sleeve Riding Top next to the skin.
- Mid: the 1/4 Zip Fleece Pullover, which vents at the neck when they warm up.
- Legs: the Thermal Riding Tights instead of standard tights.
- Yard duty: the Patrice Everyday Puffer Vest over the top, so arms stay free for mucking out.
What is worth buying first on a budget?
Legs and feet, in that order. A child who is comfortable in the saddle rides better, and grippy legwear does more for confidence than any other garment. Start with riding tights from £34.19, add the 3 Pack Socks at £13.49 so there is always a clean pair, and add the fleece when the weather turns. Tops and jackets can wait, and everyday clothes cover the gap in the meantime.
Frequently asked questions
What sizes does the Dublin children's range come in?
Children's sizes 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14. Breeches and riding tights add a waist measurement to the age, so Childs 12/25 Inch means age 12 with a 25 inch waist. Socks come in Childs One Size. Where age and waist disagree, order on the waist measurement.
Which items are available in the complete 6 to 14 size run?
Three, at the time of writing: the Shona Denim Full Seat Breeches from £49.49, the Everyday Riding Tights in black from £34.19, and the 1/4 Zip Fleece Pullover in Purple Violet from £35.99. Other pieces are down to odd sizes, so check the sizes listed on the product page before you plan an outfit around them.
Are riding tights allowed at pony club and shows?
Rules vary by club and by class, so check with your organiser rather than assuming. Riding tights are widely accepted for lessons, training and clinics. For turned-out classes most families keep a pair of breeches such as the Cammy Comfort Twill Breeches for a tidier look.
How should Dublin children's riding clothing be washed?
Always follow the care label sewn into the garment, as fabrics differ across the range. As general practice, wash stretch and grip legwear cool and inside out, skip fabric conditioner because it can dull grip panels, and air dry rather than tumble dry to protect the elastane. Fastening any zips before washing stops them catching other items.
What can my child wear underneath riding tights in cold weather?
Rather than doubling up underneath, which bunches and rubs, switch to the Thermal Riding Tights from £18.67, currently in stock in Childs 8/23 Inch black. Long socks such as the Dublin Kids 3 Pack Socks pulled over the hem keep the ankle gap covered inside jodhpur boots.
What happens if the size is wrong when it arrives?
Send it back within our 90-day returns window in unworn condition with tags attached and we will exchange it or refund it. Growing riders are exactly why that window is long. If you would rather get it right first time, get in touch and our team will help you compare the measurements before you order.
