Oh give me a break! The point of this thread is to suggest improvements to the website--not for some radical anti-animal products rant.
My leather brooks are the most comfortable saddles I have ever ridden and I do not find it "irresponsible" to use a piece of dead animal skin.
What, pray tell, should equestrian's use on their horses???? I suppose yoru response would be that we shouldn't "ride" any animal and should all be eating tree bark and fruits and berries?
