We would all like to believe that "Spring has Sprung" with shorts and T-shirts soon to be dusted off and adorned. March sadly has a different opinion and the old saying of "March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb" doesn't appear to be true this year! With the variable weather conditions, one day dry and bright with a promise of summer being just around the corner, to the next day listening to the met office issuing weather warnings, as yet another storm rampages across the UK. The unpredictable weather conditions have seen the sales of our Spring/Summer range of jackets and cooler weather apparel going down a storm (excuse the pun). The incredibly stylish Alpha Soft Shell jacket and the wonderfully versatile A...

Well, what a month February was. Here at Equetech we launched our Spring/Summer 2016 collection showcasing some beautiful new designs across the ranges. So far the customer feedback has been incredibly favourable not only on the new designs but also on our traditional designs and customer favourites. The new gender specific (ladies and mens fit) custom cross country shirts and custom Lycra hat covers are proving extremely popular with some lovely creative designs being ordered. This season's tweeds, as seen in both the Stowe and Adstock ranges are also being received favourably. The tweed used in the Stowe range is a timeless beautiful green herringbone with a navy and canary over check design. In the Adstock range we have used...

I'm sure all of our wonderful loyal customers and our new customers are now familiar with our new more intuitive website- we at Equetech love it! So, not only have we been working on a slick brand new website we also ran a hugely successful Facebook competition, based on the 12 Days of Christmas. A fantastic Equetech product was offered as a prize on each day of the first twelve days of December. The response to this competition was truly fantastic with some very imaginative pictures and imaginative festive comments. Thank you to everyone who entered, all of your support and "Well Done" to all 12 of our winners. Our sponsored riders have been enjoying so called "Down time" whilst the horses have a well-earned b...

Over the last few weeks some of our Sponsored Riders and Brand Ambassadors have been busy but not always with the horses. The eventing season is drawing to a close here in the UK,but the dressage and showjumping competitions carry on throughout the year. There have been some highs, lows and frustrations to contend with as well as some great photo shots for Equetech's AW 15/16 apparel. Amy Stovold and MacBrian (18 years old) had a fantastic result at the British Dressage Championships with a 5th placing in both the Grand Prix and Freestyle. This result was made all the more special as MacBrian was retired back in 2011 due to injury but came back in 2013 to win a Grand Prix at Hickstead before retiring for a second time. With MacBrian...
