Best Equestrian Gear in Canada 2025 — Top 9 Saddles, Helmets & Tack

The Schleese Obrigado is positioned as a best-in-class choice for English dressage riders who prioritize biomechanical fit and long-term back health; its adjustable, pressure-relieving tree and customized fit options make it especially strong for horses with sensitive backs or conformation challenges. Compared with the other saddles listed, Schleese emphasizes therapeutic design and extensive rider-horse fitting services, which can command a premium price but often reduces the need for frequent refitting or aftermarket corrective work.

The Venta represents the market-leader approach: premium materials, precise fit, and refined construction that prioritize long-term performance for serious riders in cold conditions. Compared with the rest of the list the Venta commands a higher price but delivers superior durability, wind-shedding softshell performance and a tailored fit that preserves maximum dexterity, making it worth the investment for riders who prioritize technical excellence over cost. For insulated softshell riding gloves it is the go-to for those seeking top-tier build quality and consistent protection in demanding use.

Greenhawk Soft Grip Web Reins combine traditional webbing with a soft, textured grip area to improve hand security in wet or fast-paced riding, offering a practical mid-range choice between plain web reins and higher-end padded or reflective models. Financially positioned as value-plus gear, they deliver better handling control than basic webbing like the Shires Topaz and are more affordable than purpose-built training draw reins such as the Kincade padded model.

The RAMM Flex-Fence Euro Stall System is positioned as a best-in-class choice for horse owners who prioritize corrosion resistance and modular, low-maintenance stall solutions tailored to equine facilities. Its polymer-coated and engineered-metal components deliver a long service life and lower lifecycle maintenance costs than many traditional steel or timber systems, making it a financially sensible option for large barns. Compared with other products on this list it stands out technically for weatherproofing and easy reconfiguration, trading a more utilitarian aesthetic for superior durability in wet or salty environments.

The Rambo Original Turnout is widely regarded as the market leader for horse blankets and rugs thanks to its battle-tested durability, heavy-duty waterproof outer and thoughtful shoulder and tail coverage. It commands a premium price but justifies it with proven longevity and a reputation for excellent fit and repairability, standing out against more budget-focused options like the Horze Nevada and offering more robust longevity than mid-range detach-neck designs such as the WeatherBeeta ComFiTec.

EquiStuds Original Screw-In Studs are a market leader in equine traction thanks to precision threading, modular sizing, and a reputation for secure fitment under dynamic loads; they are often chosen by professionals who prioritize consistent performance over lower upfront cost. Compared with the consumer-focused Mustad studs and the ultra-hard Borium Blue tips, EquiStuds sit in the middle financially but offer the technical advantage of easy installation and replacement for hooves and specialized tack.

Mad Barn Omneity ranks as the modern, science-forward option thanks to its all‑in‑one approach that combines fat-dense energy with digestive and micronutrient support tailored through data-driven formulations. It often commands a higher retail price because of its premium ingredients and direct-to-consumer model, but the technical advantages—personalized feeding guidance and integrated probiotic/prebiotic components—make it a strong choice for riders prioritizing metabolic tuning over simple cost-per-calorie comparisons with Gro 'N Win or Enrich Plus.

Pegasus offers a premium multimodal system that fuses pressure sensors, inertial measurement units, and synchronized video with AI-driven analytics to provide a comprehensive equine assessment for performance optimization and emergency diagnostics. It leads on technical breadth—delivering richer, cross-validated insights than single-modality competitors—and is positioned for clinics and performance centers willing to invest up front for reduced diagnostic time and longitudinal monitoring capabilities. Although its price point is higher, Pegasus can deliver financial advantages to institutions by consolidating multiple diagnostic modalities into one integrated platform, lowering total system complexity and long-term staffing costs.
