They’re the kind of presents that feel just right when the temperature drops and there’s fresh air to be enjoyed.
Barbour, Schoffel and Dubarry are great brands to explore in our women’s countrywear and men’s countrywear collections. Wrap up a little country comfort this Christmas, with practical layers that will be reached for all winter long.
Gifts for Their Christmas Stocking
What’s Christmas morning without a few goodies tucked into the stocking? Cosy riding socks, warm gloves, winter hats and handy yard accessories are all lovely little surprises to unwrap alongside the bigger presents.
And when it comes to horse riders, a gift they can put to use on their very next trip to the yard is always a good shout! Have a browse through our gifts for the rider for stocking-filler ideas that bring a little extra cheer to Christmas morning.
Gifts for Every Day at the Yard
There’s a little extra excitement in unwrapping something you can’t wait to wear, and Christmas is the perfect time to give their riding wardrobe a treat! Think riding leggings, jodhpurs, baselayers, paddock boots and cosy jackets for all those hours spent riding, grooming and getting jobs done around the yard. Ariat, SandStorm, Mountain Horse and Jod-Z are great brands to explore for practical favourites they’ll be delighted to find under the tree.
And don’t forget the younger equestrians! A new pair of jodhpurs, riding gloves or a jacket could make their Christmas, especially with lessons and weekend rides to look forward to.
