UK-based equestrian shops/brands recs?
Hi chat,
I'm currently looking into coming back to riding after quite a long pause (6 or so years) as an inspiring amateur dressage rider but I have zero knowledge about good local equestrian shops. Apparently there is a completely different set of brands available to the common public, and my "usual suspects" are not so prevalent.
The "usual suspects" are quite outdated probably from my part of world and would be Pikeur (everyone wanted a full seat jeans bridges)/Eskadron, Roeckl, Equeline, Equestrian Stockholm for their satin saddle pads, ANKY was huge. Safety gear looks the same between the two with CO, Uvex and KEP.
Soooo any recommendations? Also super interested in footwear specifically (tall boots for day-to-day riding as a start, don't want to invest into de-niro/celeris lvl stuff yet lol)
Looking for quality and durability in the first place.
