Shires Equestrian has been producing quality horse and rider gear in the UK since 1968 — and in that time, they have built a reputation for combining genuine craftsmanship with prices that do not require a second mortgage. From the Karben helmet on your head to the fly mask on your horse, Shires makes gear that works in the real world, in real conditions, every day.
What Riders Ask About Shires
Is Shires quality as good as more expensive brands?
For the money, consistently yes. Shires is the brand most frequently recommended on forums when someone asks how to get quality gear without overspending. Their bits, particularly the stainless steel snaffle and Baucher lines, are used by competitive English riders who appreciate the construction quality at a price point well below custom or premium European alternatives. Their ARMA SupaFleece saddle pads, fly masks, and bell boots receive repeat purchases from riders who have tried multiple brands — which is the most honest recommendation there is.
What is Shires best known for?
Shires covers an unusually wide product range: the Karben helmet (MIPS-equipped, low-profile, increasingly popular for English schooling), the ARMA SupaFleece saddle pads (moisture-wicking, machine washable, contoured for closer contact), fine mesh fly masks with 70% UV protection and soft fleece trim, and a comprehensive English and all-around bit collection spanning snaffles, Pelhams, Bauchers, and combination bits. Their Moretta riding boots and Aubrion apparel line complete a full rider-to-horse lineup.
Which Shires fly mask is best for sensitive or light-colored horses?
The Shires Fine Mesh Fly Mask with Ears and Nose Fringe is the top recommendation for horses with pink muzzles or photosensitive skin — the nose coverage blocks UV and insects from the most vulnerable facial areas. The fine mesh provides 70% UV protection while maintaining airflow. For horses that hate ear coverage, the earless fine mesh version offers the same UV protection and insect defense with a less intrusive fit.
