We have now added a new FORUM to equestriantack.co.uk for the discussion of all issues relating to equestrian tack. Please visit the forum, sign up, and get the discussion going!
The forum can be used to exchange views, ask for advice or just to tell us about your horse or herd!
Please also feel free to use the comment section below or, if you prefer, just email us for advice.
Watch out for our forthcoming series of featured horse tack, explaining in detail an individual item, its fitting and uses.
First in the series we will be featuring the Running and Standing Martingales. We will also be covering long reins and their use, as well as breastplates and, of course, the different types of bits and bridles available.
We have brought together the largest selection of new and used equestrian tack in fully searchable listings at amazing prices. We guarantee that you will not find a wider selection of second hand or used horse tack at lower prices anywhere!
Equestrian tack comes in a whole variety of different styles and sizes and we pride ourselves that we offer listings of just about every type of new and used horse tack imaginable. We also have listings of leather and synthetic tack. Having said that, in the unlikely event that you cannot find the exact piece of tack that you are looking for, please feel free to use the ‘Search’ facility above.
We have listed our horse tack in the commonly used categories and will be adding more categories over time. Please note also that we offer horse rugs and second hand saddles at our sister sites uk-horserugs.co.uk and second-hand-saddles.co.uk.
All of our equine tack is available in leather but you will also find included in our searchable listings synthetic horse tack for those looking for the low maintenance option. Synthetic tack is generally lighter too and suitable for disciplines such as Endurance.
Finally a word about leather horse tack. There really is no substitute for good quality English leather tack! The market is flooded with cheap foreign imports of vastly inferior quality so do be aware of this. Good quality English leather tack that is properly cleaned and oiled will genuinely last a lifetime. Poor quality cheap foreign leather will certainly not do so. In addition, it can be prone to breaking, which can be highly dangerous. Always ask for English leather where your budget permits! As a general rule, if it is new and cheap then it is unlikely to be English leather.
Finally, a word about tack fitting. Most items come in Pony, Cob and Full sizes so it vital that you have the right size for your horse. It is essential that your tack correctly fits your horse. If you are in any doubt, do please ensure that someone who knows what they are doing fits your tack specifically to your horse or pony. An incorrectly fitting bridle, for example, can cause rubbing and may even lead to behavioural problems. This applies to all pieces of horse tack!
We hope that you will find what you are looking for at our site. We offer new and used equestrian tack of every type and size and to suit every budget.
We hope you enjoy the video on tack cleaning below and find it useful too! Do watch out for our listings of tack cleaning equipment and please remember that properly maintained leather tack will last a lifetime. Poorly maintained leather will dry and crack. Not only is this potentially dangerous but it may mean that your tack will need replacing.
