MY GO-TO GEAR FOR RIDING HOLIDAYS

Ariat Wythburn Waterproof Boots

Horse riding boots, warm and waterproof

Waterproof, warm, breathable, and comfy enough for long rides on mixed terrain. I rode through rivers in Iceland with them, and they stayed totally dry. I also use them at the barn or for lessons when it’s cold.

Uvex Riding Helmet

My go-to helmet in summer, super light and breathable. Also really easy to carry.

I’m a big fan of Uniqlo. Layering is key, especially when trekking. Their stuff is warm, simple, and pretty sleek.

Safari / Desert Trek Long sleeve Shirt

This safari shirt saved me from some brutal sunburns and kept me cool during my Wadi Rum desert trek in Jordan. Also perfect for rides in Egypt, Morocco or any other hot summer trail spot.

A signature look in the arena. I take these everywhere, even on trail rides, since they’re super handy for carrying essentials like phone, keys, and more. They attach right to your belt.

Comfortable breeches/ jodhpurs by PC Racewear

Cool Irish brand with nice jodhpurs. They’ve got summer versions that I love for safaris or treks. Not as tight as dressage ones, which makes them way more comfortable for outdoor riding.

Waterproof Raingear by Redingote Equestrian

One of my favorite pieces of gear. It used to be my go-to when I rode through Canadian winters. The jumpsuits and rain gear are all solid. Also worked great in Iceland.

TECH FOR THE RIDE

GoPro Hero 12 Black

GoPro Hero 12 Black the best camera to film your horse riding trips

I got the latest one but realized I mostly just use my phone for content. That said, it’s great for spots where your phone might get wrecked, like rivers, super sandy desert trails, and so on.

DJI Mini Drone to take the most beautiful shots during your horse riding vacations

I take this anywhere I’m allowed to. Just a heads-up, some countries like Egypt and Jordan don’t let you bring drones, so make sure to check the rules before you go.

Iphone Case with cord, ride and film at the same time making sure your phone stays safe.

Super handy for keeping my phone around my neck and easy to grab for content. I leave it loose enough so it can slip into my jacket pocket when I’m not using it.
