About Gloves
A good pair of riding gloves is essential for every equestrian. They protect your hands from friction burns and blisters, improve your grip on the reins, and provide warmth during early morning rides in the Australian winter. Our gloves collection ranges from lightweight summer gloves with mesh panels to insulated winter gloves, touch-screen-compatible designs and competition-grade show gloves.
Australian riders need gloves that can handle everything from dusty arena schooling to damp cross-country courses. Our selection features gloves with silicone grip patterns, reinforced rein fingers, breathable technical fabrics and flexible stretch panels that move with your hands. Whether you're a casual trail rider or a serious competitor, you'll find the perfect pair to match your discipline and conditions.

What size riding gloves do I need?
Riding gloves are typically sized in centimetres based on the measurement around your dominant hand at the knuckles, excluding the thumb. Measure your hand and check the specific brand's sizing chart, as fit can vary between manufacturers. A well-fitted glove should be snug without restricting finger movement.
Are touchscreen-compatible riding gloves available?
Yes, many of our gloves feature touchscreen-compatible fingertips, allowing you to use your phone or training apps without removing your gloves. This is particularly handy for coaches, photographers and riders who track their sessions.
Can I use these gloves for competition?
We stock a range of competition-approved gloves in traditional black, brown and white. For official competitions, check your discipline's dress code — most require conservative colours. Our show gloves are designed to meet EA and FEI guidelines.
How do I wash my riding gloves?
Most technical riding gloves can be hand-washed in cool water with a mild detergent, then air-dried flat. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying, as this can damage grip coatings and stretch fabrics. Always check the care label on your specific gloves.
What's the difference between summer and winter riding gloves?
Summer riding gloves are lightweight with mesh ventilation panels for breathability, while winter gloves feature insulation, windproof membranes and sometimes waterproof coatings to keep hands warm and dry. Some riders keep both styles on hand for year-round comfort.
Do you stock gloves for children?
Yes, our range includes smaller sizes suitable for children and young riders. Kids' riding gloves provide the same grip and protection benefits as adult gloves, helping young riders develop good rein contact from the start.
