Horse gear is expensive - but it doesn’t have to be. Discover how buying second hand makes horse riding more accessible, inclusive, and sustainable for riders in Sweden and beyond.
Whether you’re a seasoned rider or just starting out, the cost of gear can feel overwhelming. In Sweden alone, we spend over 4.1 billion SEK every year on new equestrian gear. That kind of cost creates a real barrier, especially for newcomers who want to try the sport but don’t want to invest thousands right away.
At Floccs, we want to break down that barrier.
Let’s face it - there’s pressure in the riding world to always have the latest saddle pad or the trendiest breeches. But high quality gear is made to last, and it shouldn’t lose value after one ride. We are here to challenge the idea that “new is better.” We believe second hand should be just as stylish, functional, and celebrated.
Trying horse riding shouldn’t mean emptying your wallet. Second hand gear makes it easier for beginners and budget conscious riders to enter the sport and feel confident while doing so. It’s a win-win for your finances, the environment, and the riding community.
That’s where Floccs changes the game!
Traditionally, second hand meant messaging strangers, negotiating prices, and hoping your item shows up. Not anymore!
