Accessories: Practical companions and lovely details for riders

Accessories: details that make riding life better

Rider accessories cover everything that completes your outfit and comes in handy at the yard. A good belt keeps your breeches in place, bags hold your phone, horse passport and kit, and hats and scarves keep you warm in winter. On top of that there are gift items for horse lovers of all ages, from key rings to grooming boxes for children who are just starting out with ponies.

Practical at the yard

Many accessories make everyday life with horses easier. A bum bag keeps your phone and keys safely on your body while you ride, and large bags and multi bags hold grooming kit, boots or a change of clothes. A wallet protects the horse passport on journeys and at shows. Belts in leather or stretch fabric are comfortable and look smart. A snood under your jacket keeps your neck warm without getting in the way while riding.

Little treats and gifts

Anyone who loves horses is delighted by small things with a horse motif. Key rings, notebooks, pencil cases or a unicorn night light make lovely gift ideas for children and adults. A filled grooming bag or a grooming box for children is a wonderful start for young horse fans. Hats and caps with an equestrian theme are perfect for birthdays and Christmas.

Frequently asked questions

What can I give a rider who already has everything?
Practical items that wear out quickly always go down well, such as riding socks, gloves or a new bum bag. Small things with a horse motif, like a key ring or a notebook for riding lessons, are lovely ideas too. A warm scarf or hat almost always fits the bill.

Do I need a belt for riding?
It is not compulsory, but it stops your breeches from slipping down when you lean forward. At competitions it is part of a tidy turnout. Stretch belts are particularly comfortable for riding.

Where is the safest place to carry my phone when riding?
Close to your body, for example in a bum bag or a phone pocket on your breeches. That way you can reach it if you have a fall. In a jacket pocket it is more likely to fall out.
