Horse riding hats: an essential piece of gear for Aussie riders
Horseland has been supplying Aussie horse lovers with all the right gear since 1978, so we know what’s essential for pros and recreational riders. A great hat that will keep the sun off while you’re grooming or lunging your horse.
Our selection is easy to browse, so you can spend more time outdoors than online shopping for a horse riding hat. Simply filter your search by brand, type, colour, size and gender. We’ve got options for men, women and children, so there are options for the entire family. You’ll find some of Australia’s most trusted brands, such as Thomas Cook hats, that understand how harsh the Aussie sun can be on skin. Horse riders need durable options that will withstand wear and tear, and can be thrown in the back of a ute when it’s not in use.
What kind of horse riding hat do I need?
Horse riding hats should be comfortable, fit properly and be made of materials that will last years. The type of hat you choose should fit your personal style, and the conditions you’re going to be working in when mucking and grooming.
We have options that are similar to men’s akubra hats and ladies’ Akubra hats made by brands we favour for their durability and exceptional craftsmanship. You’ll find Thomas Cook hats that offer protection against the sun when you’re saddling up, and are stylish enough to be worn to the beach. For a more streamlined, casual feel, opt for a baseball-style cap. We’ve got all colours and designs, and some designs have mesh panels, helping you keep a cool head on hot days. Western-style hats are available too, giving you the look of having just stepped off the ranch.
In addition to picking up one of the best horse riding hats available today, you should protect your head properly when you’re hitting your strides on the track. We think riding is more enjoyable for everyone when you’re taking safety seriously. We’ve got helmets from:
- Vipa
- Weatherbeeta
- Derby
- Dublin
