The Ultimate Guide to Winter Equestrian Footwear
An equestrian's Christmas wish list likely covers two things, practicality, and yearning. On the practicality side sit items such as a new pooper-scoopa, a better yard brush, new wellington boots and yet another pair of warm gloves (you can never have too many!). The yearning side likely says things like a new saddlepad, new fleece rug for shows, and new brushing boots because you want a smart pair for competitions. Riding tights and breeches float somewhere between the two as does a new hat silk, it’s practical to keep changing your hat silk right?
In this equestrian’s Christmas gift guide, we’ve picked out items that will make the perfect gift for any equestrian in your life.

Christmas Gifts for Horse Riders
The Stride Rhythm Seeker
A bit of tech always goes down well at Christmas, and this piece of tech is perfect for any equestrian. The Stride wireless riding speaker is easy to set up and link to your phone, plus this wearable wrist speaker is a true crowd-pleaser. Mariah Carey’s Christmas classics and Michael Buble’s timeless tunes will be blasting out in minutes, and you’ll soon be taking song requests from other people on the yard.
This speaker plays up to 6 hours of your favourite music in one go, the push of one button means you can answer phone calls while wearing riding gloves and the adjustable wrist strap lets you wear it under or over your coats. It’s splash-proof, and uses Bluetooth to connect to your phone. It also has a Micro SD slot for any music you have saved on a portable device.
Leah Grange shows us how easy it is to set up the riding speaker:

Our socks are lightweight but warm, finished off with a ribbed top and a thicker knit on the foot and heel for extra comfort. And they’re loved by you:

What did Megan Blake think of the Perform Saddlecloth?
“I’m absolutely obsessed with the colours and pattern of the Perform range, I’ve never seen anything like it before and I cannot wait to get out in it more. I plan on using them for my new cross-country colours and I’m going to purchase the matching base layer to top it off!”
The Protechmasta Quarter Rug
The product guaranteed to make any horse owner jump for joy. Year after year it features on letters to Santa and year after year it receives glowing reviews from horse owners.
