Frequently Asked Questions: Riding Gear and Dress Code

Very little is required to get started at Five Star Equestrian. For your first month, we provide helmets to beginning riders so you can focus on learning before investing in gear. If you fall in love with the sport and continue riding, you will need to purchase your own helmet, vest, and appropriate clothing. The products featured on this page are examples of the everyday riding attire we recommend. Show clothes are more detailed and specific — if you progress to competing, we will guide you through exactly what you need. We also carry Five Star Equestrian logo'd apparel; contact Leah or Cassandra directly to place an order.
