Long time since I had this much fun decorating! Just finishing up the tack- and feedroom in our Pony-barn with room for two ponies. I bet someone will be having a great time in here!

‘15. Items every equestrian needs in their stable bag’

Author: Annalise Wagner

Ah the stable bag. A large backpack that accompanies the equestrian on their journey to the stable and back! ...But what should be in it? 

Above everything, a stable bag should contain a full name, horses name and list of emergency numbers to call, including what vet and farrier you use! 

Here is a list of the top 15 items we recommend for your stable bag!

1. Helmet

The helmet is quite possibly one of the most essential items on this list. 

Helmets save lives. Your helmet should be up to date with the current safety standards and should contain rider's full name, horses name and emergency contacts written somewhere inside it for safety purposes! 

We use the Samshield Shadow Matte. 

2. Gloves 

Another essential item! Whilst it’s nice to ride without gloves- sometimes that’s not an option! Especially in winter! Generally a softer glove, that won’t constrict your movement ability is preferred! 

We use the HKM (limited edition) Queens gloves. 

3. Spare pair of riding socks

We always get caught out on this! On the days we forget a spare pair of riding socks, the socks we are wearing at the time generally get soaked with water. Coincidence? Or perhaps the stable god's sending a hidden message?  Either way, a spare pair of riding socks makes it on our top 15. 

We use the HKM horse print riding socks. 

4. Water

Did you know that about 60% of an adult human body is made up of pure water? We NEED water to survive, and when you partake in a sport like horse riding, you sweat. This reduces your hydration and could make you sick if you leave it for too long! Make sure you always take a bottle of water with you and stay hydrated! 

We use Mt Franklin water

5. AntiBacterial Wipes 

Yes, I know. An equestrian shouldn’t be afraid to get their hands dirty. However, just incase the stable bathrooms don’t have any soap before you eat or after you visit the toilet- keep some antibacterial wipes on hand! 

We use grapefruit and mint antibacterial wipes. 

6. Lipbalm 

Trust me, your pony does not want a kiss on their nose if you have chapped lips (Haha!) However in all seriousness, chapped lips are a pain, and unless soothed, can get worse and worse. Save yourself the pain and keep lipbalm in your stable bag! 

We use House Of Horse Equestrians Lipbalm.

7. Pocket Tissues

We are pretty sure the person who came up with the name for hay fever was an equestrian. Whilst that is probably very inaccurate, fact is that the stables is a very dusty place. Chances are you may sneeze during the day. Avoid embarrassment. Keep tissues on hand. 

8. Tack Charm

Okay so whilst this isnt a necessity, accessorising your horse in a cute little charm is great fun! Tack charms are super adorable and affordable too! Always great to keep a spare on hand incase you forget someones birthday! 

We use Nickerknots.

9. Spare change

Have you ever driven past McDonalds, literally starving on the way home only to realise you have no cash with you? We certainly have, and trust me, It’s the saddest feeling in the world! 

10. Cap

Caps are multi-purpose to an equestrian! They can hide your awful case of helmet hair AND they can protect you from harmful sun rays in summer! 

We use Robin Ruth ‘München cap.

11. HorsePLAY 

For those moments when you don’t actually have anything to do at the stables, here is a fantastic educational game that you can play on your own or with your friends at the stables! I have personally spent hours playing this game! 

We use HorsePLAY game.

12. Bailing Twine Cutter

How many times have you been caught out in the feedroom, unable to find something sharp enough to slice the bailing twine on your new fresh hay bale. Keep a twine cutter on you to avoid scenarios like this! 

We use Bailing Twine Cutter. 

13. Shampoo infused sponge

These things are neat! Sweaty horse after a hard ride? The shampoo infused sponge is both shampoo and a sponge in one. It makes washing your horse so much easier- and they smell great! 

We use Mrs Conn’s Bath Day.

14. Hoof pick

Another essential! You simply can not equestrian without a hoof pick, however they seem to be the first grooming item to lose! Keep one handy incase the one in your grooming kit has mysteriously wandered off! 

We use HKM hoof pick with brush (And anti slip handle).

15. Stable Bag

Your trusted stable bag must be sturdy and able to withstand whatever the stables throws at it! The stable bag must also contain many pockets and ‘holders’ so you can store all your belongings and keep them organised! 

We recommend Samshield Iconpack.

So that’s it, our top 15 recommended items you need in your stable bag! 

What do you keep in your stable bag currently? 

What of these items do you already use? 

We would love to hear from you! Be sure to share this with a friend too! Sharing is caring!
