    It's considered traditional "English" riding apparel. Many equestrian sports wear the same style of clothing. The clothing itself has nothing to do with fox hunting...other than the fact that they wore something similar when they hunted foxes. (It's not like they're wearing fox pelts.)

    For example, if you wear cowboy boots that wouldn't make you a cowboy.

    I don't think the way the show jumpers dress should bother wildlife supports at all.
