The most useful Christmas gifts for riders are often the things that make everyday riding more comfortable. Think about when they ride, what they already own and whether there’s something they need to replace.
From warm gloves to waterproof trousers, this guide will help you choose a practical present. If you’re unsure about their size or preferred style, a gift voucher lets them choose for themselves.
A Gift Voucher When You’re Unsure
A Just Chaps Equestrian Gift Voucher is a thoughtful option when you don’t know which product or size to buy.
Available in multiples of £25, our e-vouchers can be redeemed against any Just Chaps product. The recipient can choose something they need and ask us for fitting advice before ordering.
This is particularly useful for half chaps and gaiters, where the correct calf fitting and height matter more than a general clothing size.
Riding Half Chaps and Gaiters
Half chaps and gaiters make useful presents for riders who need a new pair or would like a different style for their riding.
All Purpose Riding Half Chaps offer stretchy, washable neoprene for everyday use. Meanwhile, Saltos Leather Riding Half Chaps and Saltos Leather Riding Gaiters suit riders who prefer the appearance and feel of leather.
For younger riders, our range also includes children’s and toddler options.
Before buying, check the recipient’s measurements and the size chart for the product you’ve chosen. If you’re replacing an existing pair, check the style and size code rather than assuming all half chaps fit the same way.
Browse our riding half chaps and gaiters to compare the options.
Waterproof Riding Trousers
For someone who rides and works around horses throughout winter, waterproof trousers can be a welcome gift.
Dri-Rider Waterproof Riding Trousers provide waterproof protection for wet days in the saddle and around the yard. They include a non-slip riding seat, with three leg lengths across the range.
Alternatively, Dri-Rider Waterproof Country Trousers come without the non-slip riding seat, making them a useful gift for spectators spending time outdoors at horse shows and events.
Waterproof Full Chaps with Fleece Lining
Dri-Rider Waterproof Full Chaps with Fleece Lining combine waterproof protection with added warmth for colder days.
They’re worth considering for riders who want protection over their usual riding clothes. Children’s versions are also available for younger riders.
Horse Riding Gloves
Horse riding gloves make a smaller Christmas present that riders can use regularly.
Start by thinking about the conditions they ride in. Someone who spends winter mornings at the yard may appreciate warmth, while a rider who is often out in the rain may prefer waterproof protection.
Our range includes All Purpose Horse Riding Gloves, Waterproof Horse Riding Gloves and Competition Horse Riding Gloves, alongside other seasonal options.
Compare the features in our horse riding gloves range, and check the sizing information before choosing.
Georgie Campbell Foundation Base Layers
A Georgie Campbell Foundation Base Layer is another option for a rider who already has their everyday essentials.
The range includes White, Black and Purple. Each purchase contributes towards the Foundation’s work to improve cross-country safety and help riders establish their eventing businesses.

Choosing the Right Christmas Gift
A few checks can make choosing a present easier:
- Think about the recipient’s riding routine and the weather they ride in.
- Check measurements against the individual product’s size chart.
- Choose features they’ll use, such as warmth, waterproof protection or washable materials.
- If you’re unsure of their size or preferences, consider a gift voucher.
If the size or style isn’t quite right, we’re happy to help you exchange it for another size or style.
You’re welcome to contact Just Chaps for help choosing a product or understanding the sizing. A little advice before ordering can help you find a present the rider will enjoy using.
