Ridingequipment.eu – Quality Equipment, Expert Knowledge and a Passion for Horses

Ridingequipment.eu is a Danish wholesaler and importer of equestrian equipment, care products and accessories for horses, riders and the day-to-day running of stables. The company distributes a wide range of international quality brands to equestrian retailers and other dealers throughout Denmark, Scandinavia and Northern Europe.

Riding Equipment primarily serves business customers. Its webshop is therefore designed as a B2B platform where registered dealers can view prices and stock availability and place orders. Private customers are referred to the company’s extensive dealer network. Riding Equipment also has a showroom in Randers, where dealers can explore the products and brands in greater detail.

A History Dating Back to 2005

The history of Riding Equipment is founded on many years of practical experience with horses and equestrian sport. The company has supplied quality equipment to the equestrian industry since 2005, and its professional expertise is closely connected to owner Pernille Bendix’s lifelong involvement with horses.

Pernille Bendix has experience across several disciplines, including dressage, show jumping, western riding and recreational trail riding. She has also competed internationally in western riding and is a former member of the Danish national reining team.

From 2015 to 2018, Pernille Bendix was the national coach of the Danish western riding youth team. During this period, the team achieved a silver medal at the EuroCup and sixth place at the Youth World Cup, as well as several gold and silver medals in disciplines including Trail, Western Horsemanship and Hunt Seat Equitation.

This broad experience in classical riding, western riding, competition and training has helped shape Riding Equipment. The company is not built around one particular discipline, but around a desire to source functional and durable equipment that creates value for horses, riders and retailers across the equestrian world.

Today, Pernille Bendix focuses exclusively on selecting, importing and distributing quality products to the equestrian industry. Her practical experience continues to play an important role when new products are evaluated and when dealers require guidance on product features, applications and target groups.

A Comprehensive Product Range for Numerous Disciplines

Riding Equipment offers an extensive range covering the needs of horses, riders and stables. The product programme is aimed at riders participating in dressage, show jumping, eventing, western riding, horsemanship, Icelandic horse riding, endurance, Mountain Trail, TREC, pony and miniature horse activities, as well as horse racing and harness racing.

The range includes equipment for everyday training, competition products and solutions for care, safety, transport and stable use.

Equipment for the Horse

A significant part of the range consists of equipment for the horse. This includes bits, bridles, reins, halters, lead ropes, rope halters, horsemanship ropes, lunging equipment, girths, breast collars, stirrups, spurs and various types of training equipment.

Riding Equipment offers a comprehensive selection of bits from brands such as Myler Bits. The Myler system is divided into different levels, allowing the bit to be selected according to the horse’s education, experience and need for tongue relief. The range includes both traditional and western bits, as well as accessories and educational material.

The western range is particularly extensive and includes western bits, reins, mecates, bosals, hackamores, curb straps, tie straps, off billets, spur straps, breast collars and other leather and training equipment. A wide selection of products for groundwork and horsemanship is also available.

Saddle Pads and Girths

Riding Equipment supplies saddle pads and girths for several different disciplines. The range includes dressage and jumping saddle pads, pony pads, endurance pads and a broad selection of western saddle pads.

The western range includes felt pads, shock-absorbing Air-Ride pads, contoured work pads, show blankets, liners and pads designed to accommodate corrective inserts. The products are selected with particular attention to fit, pressure distribution, ventilation and comfort for both horse and rider.

Professional’s Choice and Matrix Saddle Pads are among the key brands represented in this category.

Leg Protection and Therapy Products

Leg protection is another important product category. Riding Equipment supplies boots, overreach boots, brushing boots, jumping boots, bandages, wraps and specially developed Sports Medicine Boots.

The range covers everyday training, competition, transport and more demanding disciplines. It also includes cooling and therapy products designed to support recovery and the care and maintenance of the horse’s legs, muscles and joints.

Professional’s Choice and Woof Wear play an important role in this category. Both brands are known for using technical materials and for developing products that prioritise protection, freedom of movement and comfort.

Care Products for Horses and Equipment

Riding Equipment offers a comprehensive range of care products from brands including Absorbine. The selection covers products for the coat, skin, mane and tail, as well as hoof care, wound care, muscle and joint care and protection against flies and other insects.

The range also includes sun and UV protection as well as products for caring for leather equipment. It therefore covers both everyday grooming and maintenance and more specific requirements associated with summer, winter, competitions, transport and minor skin or wound-related problems.

Clothing and Equipment for the Rider

For riders, Riding Equipment offers breeches, riding tights, shirts, outerwear, waterproof clothing, socks, footwear, gloves, hats and headbands.

Heritage Gloves supplies riding gloves for different purposes and seasons, including winter gloves, leather gloves, children’s gloves and gloves for western riding, stable work and groundwork. The ranges from Woof Wear and Irideon include technical riding clothing and products for training, competition and leisure.

Reflective and LED products are also available to help make horses and riders more visible when riding in darkness or poor light conditions.

Stable, Transport and Practical Accessories

The product range extends beyond riding itself. Riding Equipment also supplies hay nets, hay bags, equipment bags, storage solutions, trailer accessories, repair products, heat packs and waterproof bags.

Brands such as Fidlock, Smart Tie Products, Grabber and Tear-Aid provide practical solutions for the stable, transport and everyday life around horses. A selection of products for dogs is also available.

More Than a Traditional Wholesaler

Riding Equipment aims to provide more than products alone. The company also places great emphasis on sharing knowledge about product function and correct use.

The company’s website therefore features articles and educational content on subjects including Myler bits, wound and hoof care, insect protection, sweet itch, sun exposure, leg protection and preparing horses and riders for different seasons and competitions.

This combination of a comprehensive product range, practical experience and professional knowledge makes Riding Equipment a valuable business partner for equestrian retailers and professional dealers. Its aim is to help dealers select the right products, advise their customers and build a relevant assortment for the various segments of the equestrian industry.

With an extensive dealer network, a showroom in Randers and distribution throughout Scandinavia and Northern Europe, Ridingequipment.dk acts as a link between international manufacturers, equestrian retailers and the riders and horse owners who ultimately use the products.
