An apron or half-apron skirt should be worn, for safety’s sake.
The boots must be of black calf. Patent-leather or russet boots are not correct in the field.
A silk hat is correct, but a derby or a hunting hat, such as I have described in chapter VIII, may be worn, and a hat guard, such as I have there described, is necessary.
Either tan dog-skin or white buckskin gloves are correct.
An Ascot stock should be worn with a plain bar gold pin.
Attached to the two D’s on the off-side of the saddle should be a sandwich case with a flask in it, a sandwich in the case, and a drink in the flask.
Sandwich Cases and Flasks
A pair of white woollen gloves must be carried on the off-side under the flap.
In England a crop is always carried in the field. In this country it is correct, but a cutting whip may be carried instead. If a crop is carried it may have a thong, although, personally, I think it a great nuisance.
