Riding safely: the safety gear every rider needs

Riding safely is a priority, so it pays to choose good-quality, suitable equipment. That is why Sellerie GZ offers a wide range of essential safety gear. ✅

Protecting your head

Wearing a riding hat is a must. It is designed specifically to withstand impact and reduce the risk of serious injury.

Here is our selection of riding hats:

- CASCO Mistrall 2 Edition riding hat

- QHP "Miami" riding hat

- Pro F1 Matt Sparkle riding hat

- BACK ON TRACK EQ3 Lynx riding hat

For better hygiene, we recommend using a spray to get rid of unpleasant odours, or cleaning your hat regularly.

- CASCO refreshing spray for riding hats

- CASCO riding hat cleaner

The protective vest

For extra protection in a fall, we recommend wearing a protective vest ❗️

When it detects a fall, the airbag inflates rapidly to protect your upper body, including your neck, back and vital organs. This helps reduce the risk of serious injury, particularly in a high-speed fall or a fall at an obstacle:

- SPARK 2 adult airbag vest

- Harcour x Hit-air airbag vest

Safety stirrups

Safety stirrups are designed to give riders additional protection in a fall. Their release mechanism lets your foot come free easily, so it does not get caught in the stirrup.

This helps prevent serious injuries, such as leg trauma or being dragged.

We strongly recommend wearing them: the single-branch design divides the load on each stirrup by three, easing the strain on the rider's joints and on the horse's back:

- FREEJUMP Soft'up Pro + stirrup

- FREEJUMP Soft'up Classic stirrup

And finally, protect your hands!

Protecting your hands is essential for comfort and safety during your rides.

Riding gloves protect your hands from friction and blisters. They also offer protection in a fall by reducing the risk of hand injuries.

- BACK ON TRACK gloves

- HARCOUR "Andy" gloves

- EQUITHEME "Grip" gloves

We hope you found this article useful and that it helps you choose the right gear to ride safely!
