A well-planned tack setup should match your discipline, fit your horse correctly and support safe, comfortable riding whether you are schooling at home, heading to pony club or preparing for competition.
- Bridles, reins and related headgear
- Breastplates and martingales for front-end stability
- Girths, stirrups and competition accessories
Breastplates, Martingales & Front-End Stability
Horse breastplates, pony breastplates and martingales are useful for riders who want extra stability through the front end and a more secure saddle setup. These pieces are especially popular for jumping, eventing and horses working over varied terrain where keeping the saddle in place matters.
Stirrups, Irons & Rider Position
The right stirrup setup can improve grip, comfort and balance, whether you are flat riding, jumping or building a more competition-focused kit. If you are refining your overall riding setup, you can also browse our horse saddles and horse pads and saddle cloths collections.
Competition Tack & Everyday Essentials
Alongside everyday riding essentials, many tack setups also include competition accessories such as bridle numbers and horse number holders for show days and events. For horses in regular work, many riders also shop supportive gear such as horse boots alongside their tack setup.
