Best gifts for horse lovers and equestrians
37 Equestrian Gifts to Fit Any Budget
Find the perfect gift for the horse lover in your life. Ordered from most to least expensive, you’re sure to find a gift they’ll love no matter your budget.
1. Tucci Sofia Tall Boots – $1,095.00
Tuccis are the gold standard when it comes to tall boots. Riders love the custom feel, impeccable Italian leather, and sharp show-ring look. Tucci boots are heirloom pieces, something an equestrian might not buy for themselves—which makes them the perfect gift for special occasions.
2. KASK Star Lady Hunter Helmet – $690.00
For those who prefer Kask’s Italian design and ventilation, the Star Lady Hunter is a close contender for most-wanted helmet. It offers the same sleek silhouette and wider brim style as the Miss Shield, with lightweight comfort that makes it perfect for long show days.
Note: Getting the right fit for a riding helmet is critical to the safety of the rider, so be sure to get accurate measurements before buying. Use our helmet measurement guide to get started →
3. Samshield 2.0 Miss Shield Dark Line Shadowmatt Helmet – $649.00
This helmet tops just about every rider’s wishlist. Accompanied by Samshield’s legacy of making safe, durable helmets, the design of the Miss Shield Dark Line is unparalleled. The matte black trim gives it a polished, professional look that elevates any show look. It’s an investment piece that riders wear for years, and for many, it’s the ultimate helmet upgrade.
4. Custom Tack Trunk – $600-$1200+
A custom tack trunk is the gift riders never forget. These solid wooden trunks are personalized with vinyl panels in your barn colors, monogram, or name—the ultimate way to keep your gear organized and show-ready. They take about eight weeks to make and are well worth the wait. (Trust us: this is the one piece of equipment most of us don’t have, but wish we did!)
Note: Due to the custom nature of this product, the lead time is generally 4-6 weeks. That means early November is the latest you want to order this so it arrives in time for Christmas!
5. EGO7 Aries Dress Boots – $599.00
EGO7s come in a close second to the Tucci in that they are more budget-friendly but still high-performance. They’re sleek, durable, and widely praised for their easy fit right out of the box. Retailing for $599, these boots are competitively priced compared to other boots of equal value.
6. Equiline ATIRK Women’s Knee Grip Breeches – $389.00
They should already have riding breeches, of course, but they don’t have breeches like these. If there’s one pair of breeches riders rave about, it’s the ATIRK Knee Grip Breeches from Equiline. They’re buttery-soft, flattering, and built for movement. They don’t lose shape, even after long show days, and the subtle branding keeps them timeless. Available in black, blue, white, and beige, they suit every show style and dress code.
7. Welligogs Women’s Rockingham Wool Gilet – $370.00
A perfect gift for the fashion-forward horse lover! Welligogs is well known for their warm, well-made outerwear inspired by traditional English equestrian fashion. The Rockingham Gilet is one of our favorites because it looks amazing—the wool outer is soft and stylish, perfect for layering. The silhouette is flattering, and the silky paisley lining is like an elegant little surprise.

Show how proud you are of your equestrian with a gorgeous garment bag for their show jackets.

This is the coat for riders who work in chilly climates. The Cavallo Reza coat is warm without being bulky—perfect for teaching lessons, riding, or walking the grounds in all kinds of weather.

15. Penelope Phone Pocket – $104.90
We’re big fans of this one because it solves a real problem: where to stash a phone when you ride. The Penelope Phone Pocket clips securely to a belt or waistband and keeps cellphones safe, secure, and easy to reach. It’s perfectly sized to accommodate both newer and older models of smartphones comfortably, even with protective cases. Best of all? The soft cow leather looks gorgeous and comes in three different colors, so it still looks great even with show gear on.

18. Vagabond House Equestrian Glassware – $90-$300+
These glasses are a favorite among those who love to entertain just as much as they love horses. The pewter accents and classic designs add just the right touch of “horse girl chic” to any bar setup. They’re the kind of gift that feels special without being fussy.

Gifts that trainers and groomers actually appreciate

- House cleaning service: A clean home they didn’t have to scrub themselves? Heaven.
- Meal delivery service: A week of Home Chef, HelloFresh, or similar makes show season (or winter chores) a lot easier.
