What do I need for a dressage show day?
Rider: white or cream breeches, show jacket (navy, black or relevant federation colour), white shirt or stock with tie/pin, gloves, helmet and tall boots. Horse: white saddle pad, ear bonnet, clean bridle with appropriate bit, bandages or boots if permitted.
What should I wear for a show jumping competition?
Show jumping typically requires a show jacket, light-coloured breeches, show boots or half-chaps, a certified safety helmet and gloves. Check the specific show schedule for dress code requirements.
How early should I order show day gear before a competition?
We recommend ordering at least 5–7 business days before your show to allow for standard delivery. Express shipping options are available — check at checkout for current timeframes.

Yes — we stock coordinating saddle pads, ear bonnets and rider apparel from brands that offer matching collections. Browse the Show Day range to find colour-coordinated sets.
What grooming products do I need for show day?
Key grooming essentials include a body brush, mane comb, tail brush, hoof oil, finishing spray and chalk or whitening shampoo for grey horses. Browse The Wash Bay collection for our full grooming range.
Are there dress code rules for Australian equestrian competitions?
Yes — each federation (EA, PC, independent shows) has its own dress code requirements. Generally, appropriate helmets, show jackets and boots are required at most levels. Always check the specific show schedule before competing.
