Retrospective Horse Riding Wear

I'm not exactly sure what particular era these monochrome photographs actually came from, but I do believe it could be the mid to late 1970's or even the early part of the 1980's.

If any one could help me identify exactly what decade thses pictures were taken then it will be greatly appreciated.

I am rather surprised that we haven't heard from Betty Ford, as four of these black and white photographs actually contain images of men dressed in horse riding apparel.

Notice how tight the jods where for both men and women in those days

I think that the three first are ads from either Pikeur or Eurostar. Pikeur still retouches the breeches to look super thight i their ads. The pictures look very much like Pikeur to mere. But definately from the 70's.

The last one also looks like Pikeur or Eurostar - but from the 80's - maybe early 90's.

I have the same model breeches from Pikeur - and they do NOT fit like on the picture. They have been retouched a lot :-)

I was amused by the HELMET HAIR on the Englebert Humperdinck guy.... it looked plastic like on the Burger King "King"! That hair would break combs! [I'm really just envious.]
