The age-old adage says “you get what you pay for.” So what are you most likely to spend some extra funds on? Last week we asked our readers what barn wear item they are most likely to splurge on to ensure they got a high-quality product. More than 1,100 people responded and we’ve tallied the results.

The majority of TheHorse.com readers indicated they are willing to pay more for high quality footwear. Of the 1,138 total respondents, 532 (47%) said they are most likely to splurge on riding boots to get a high-quality product, while another 313 (28%) said they're likely to spend extra on high-quality muck boots. Another 97 individuals (9%) said they were willing to spend a little extra money for a high-quality rain jacket, and 62 respondents (5%) indicated they would splurge on technical clothing. Fifty-four people (5%) said they would splurge on gloves, 30 people (3%) chose socks, 5 respondents said they would spend extra on a belt, and 45 individuals (4%) selected “other.” None of the respondents said they would splurge on a fashion item.
