    Equestrian apparel and accessories

    Equestrian apparel and accessories

    Horse lovers care above all about the wellbeing of their four-legged friends. Saddle pads protect the horse’s back during rides, and blankets offer protection from rain and cold. It’s for this reason that horse owners set such great store by functionality, including sweat absorption, water resistance, and breathability. They are at the same time very concerned about form stability, bite resistance and durability.

    And what equestrian sports lovers want for themselves more than anything else are fashionable textiles that fit nicely and are easy to care for and colorfast, as well as being free from illegal harmful substances.
