21.01.2022 Compositi stirrups.... You might have seen us review the 'Profile' Compositi's last year but today i will be reviewing the Compositi 'Reflex' Stirrups! Just as awesome as the 'Profiles' but these bad boys have some more awesome features, especially for those that get a lot of knee and joint pain with the tension from normal stirrups irons. The 'Reflex' stirrups are made from high-tech lightweight polymer, they feature wide treads with grippy footing to stabilize your feet, th...e treads also have a shock absorbing layer in them to relieve tension in your knees, ankles and joints. Not only that but the nice slender design of these stirrups are made so that in case of an emergency there is quick foot release for the riders safety! In true Compositi style these stirrups do come in all 14 colours of the rainbow for the treads and 3 base colours (black, silver, carbon look and brown). However to my extensive research and knowledge the treads for these stirrups are not interchangeable like the 'Profile' stirrups. I've had these stirrups for a while now and i have fallen in love with them from the first moment i put them on my saddle, they honestly feel like my feet are on pillows when im riding and i have found that i have never lost my stirrups yet with these ones and because they are a bit more wider than the Profiles i can find my stirrups very easily compared to the Profiles that sometimes require kicking them around a little to get your feet back in them! You can purchase a pair of these stirrups for $50 - $60 from Goodwood Saddlery, Newmarket Saddlery and any local tack store that stocks Compositi products! I rate this product 10/10 - Laura **please excuse how dirty the stirrups are in the photos!!**
20.01.2022 Ever wanted one of those Anky saddle pads but just couldn't justify paying over $100 for one? We'll never fear WeatherBeeta - Australia has your back with their cool 'Elite' pads. So today I will be reviewing one! I'm all for finding good quality pads that are going to keep my horse cool during the warmer months without breaking the bank and these weatherbeeta ones are ticking all the boxes for me so far!... At first I was a little unsure from looking at the Anky pads how some silicone on the pad is going to keep my saddle in place without girth loops or anything so that's what turned me off the Anky pads in the first place because my saddle is known for slipping around when its not strapped into the saddle pad. I then came across these Weatherbeeta pads in a quick trip to Horseland and they stood out with there massive range of bright colours but not only that they look exactly like the Anky pads at a cheaper price with some even better extra's that not even the Anky pads have! the Weatherbeeta Elite pads feature: - sueded top side with silicone grip both sides. - girth loops. - air venting mesh down the spine to keep some air flowing in under the pad to keep your horse cool. - moisture wicking lining underneath - it's a nice thick pad to keep your horse comfortable. So far I'm loving this pad, it's holding up really well with just over a months use now, it's been pretty much everything I've needed in a saddle pad but not only that it's really fashionable right now! You can pick up one of these great pads from your local Horseland store or tack store that stock Weatherbeeta products. They RRP for $89.99 and come in a GREAT range of fun and bright colours! I rate this product 10/10 - Laura

15.01.2022 Don't you just LOVE it when all your horses are shedding their winter coats!? but do you know what makes the process a little better? a good shedding blade!! Today i will be reviewing the EquiGroomer! After seeing a bit of hype online about these EquiGroomers, i had to go on a hunt for them to see what they really are and after stumbling across many videos of people using them on horses with made them out to look like they has almost clipped a horse with them the results look...ed that good, so i went ahead and ordered myself one from Grosvenor Park Products. I received its very quickly in the mail from them and the EquiGroomer turned out to be just a piece of hacksaw in a piece of wood.... who would've though that something so simply could make such a great product! I have now been using the EquiGroomer every day for the last month or so and it has worked great and the results are definitely there after using it every day and not only that the EquiGroomer is super easy to clean, you don't have to worry about brushing your horse for a few strokes only to having to stop and clean your brush out again. Over all im really happy with this product and i will be continuing to use it every day! You can get yourself one of these brushes from Grosvenor Park Products, they come in two sizes (Small & Large) and come in a great varity of colours (purple, royal blue, turquoise, green, pink, orange, yellow and red) and range from $30 - $36 depending on the size you want! I rate this product 9/10 - Laura

14.01.2022 Apologies for my absence! When it comes to horse gear, unless products are trendy, they tend to go unnoticed, even if the product is great and innovative! One way to purchase new, different, and fantastic products on the market without breaking the bank is to purchase a subscription box! Subscription boxes usually consist of around 4-6 full sized products that generally are items you would not think of purchasing, items you might unintentionally scroll past when online shop...Continue reading
12.01.2022 Owning a grey can be one of the most frustrating things in the world. You will spend hours to make your horse 'White' again only for it to roll in mud 0.50 seconds later. You could easily say it's a continuous cycle of grooming. One way around this dilemma is to purchase a "skinny hood". ...Continue reading

08.01.2022 Hey guys! Finally we are back with a review. So let’s jump straight into it shall we!? I know everyone goes through tones of jumping boots year looking for the perfect pair and it’s something i struggle to find myself as I’m always on the hunt to find something that will keep my horses legs a bit cooler.... I ended up finding these Weatherbeeta Lite Open Front Jump boots and decided to give them a try! So far I’ve been pretty happy with them, they mould to your horses leg, they are lite, they breathe very well even on those warmer days, they have good protection in the area needed and not only that they look very professional and are super easy to wash! These boots feature: - pro mesh on the outside - breathable neoprene on the inside - user friendly sandwich velco closure These boots come in Black or White and range in sizes from Pony right up to Warmblood and RRP $89.95 You can purchase them from your local Horseland store or any place that stocks Weatherbeeta products! I rate this product 9/10 Happy riding! ~ Laura
07.01.2022 Bell boots. Possibly one of the most important types of protective boots when used correctly. Made for the purpose of protecting horses front legs from over reaching in both the paddock and arena. ... There are so many kinds and styles of bell boots on the market, and for many equestrians, one of the most difficult things is choosing between practicality and 'Looks' of the boot. But what if you didn't need to choose? Allow us to introduce you to Hufglocken! Hufglocken offers absolutely gorgeous fashionable bell boots, that are high in quality and low in price! Today I am going to review the Hufglocken copper python bell boots. My first impression of these bell boots, when looking on the Hufglocken website was just wow! When they arrived however, I reached a whole new level of amazement! The boots are made of thick quality neoprene with a patent copper python coating and reinforced edges. The fluff is only at the top rather than the whole way through the inside of the boot, which is good as it protects rubbing and also allows the boots to keep clean- especially during the winter months! And the velcro at the back is double layered meaning the boot will not attach easily during riding! Keeping the boots clean themselves is actually surprisingly easy, all you need to do is wipe with a wet towel or chux cloth and the fluff at the top didn't get all clumpy and grotty like I expected it to! The actual style of the boot is absolutely stunning, the cream fluff at the top of the boot and the brown reinforcement at the bottom as well as the brown velcro complements the copper python pattern on the outside patent shell, and as the entire boot is a neutral tone, it goes surprisingly well with every colour pad and polo bandages I have thrown at it. Likewise the price of these boots makes them incredibly worthwhile and affordable, only costing $39.00 AUD. Hufglocken do ship internationally which is a bonus to our 'Non Australian' readers and I believe their international shipping rates are incredibly reasonable! Overall we think the Hufglocken copper python bell boots are absolutely stunning, affordable, versatile, and high in quality and we can recommend them to anyone from dressage riders to eventers who want something a little different! I rate this product 10/10! You can purchase these boots from Hufglocken or: http://www.hufglocken.com/ Keep those heels down, Annie!

04.01.2022 We all have a saddle that's incredibly precious to us, perhaps the first saddle you ever bought- or maybe a good dressage saddle you only just managed to afford. Naturally you want to look after that saddle, oil it, nourish it, cover it to keep it safe from scratches and mice! Today I am going to review this saddle cover from the renowned brand, Snuggy Hoods. I must admit- my first impression of this saddle cover was quite high. Not only was it pink and cute- which in my o...pinion ticks all the boxes; this saddle cover also came in two sizes (S&L) making it more tailored to the two disciplines of saddles (jump and dressage) and after using their rugs and hoods before, I knew the cover would be good quality. Unfortunately my initial impression was short lived. The saddle cover itself is made with a beautiful soft fleece but unfortunately I found the fleece 'thinner' than my other rugs and quarter sheet from snuggy hoods. The print is beautiful and cute but sadly the elastic at the boarders is weak- not holding the ends of the saddle in place very well. The by far most disappointing aspect to this saddle cover is the sizing. When I clicked large on the website I expected it to easily fit my dressage saddle as it was the largest size available- however the saddle cover actually best fits my jump saddle not my dressage saddle- and when I have it on my dressage saddle, the moment I move the saddle; pick it up for instance, the cover falls off the two flaps of the saddle sitting on only the seat of the saddle and nothing else. Overall the saddle cover is inexpensive, and is a nice soft fleece with a beautiful print; however due to the impression I have from my other snuggy hoods products, I was incredibly let down by the sizing, elastic and thinness of the overall fleece. This saddle cover would most likely best suit a jump saddle or perhaps a children's pony pad rather than a dressage, although it is labelled as the largest size. This review is quite subjective, as I may have received a dud- and I would really like to express that all my other Snuggy Hoods products have been absolutely divine- however this particular saddle cover proved to be a disappointment for me. You can purchase these saddle covers at Snuggy Hoods Australia I rate this product 6/10! Happy trotting, Annie :)
