New Sponsor for Youth Festival of Dressage in 2025

 

Dressage NZ is excited to announce Saddle and Canter as its new sponsor for the 2025 Youth Festival of Dressage.

 

Saddle & Canter offers functional, practical equestrian pieces for children and adults alike and is a perfect fit for the Youth Festival of Dressage and Under 25’s Championships. 

 

We look forward to partnering with them this Season!

 

Jodi Walker, the co owner and founder of Saddle & Canter, has created a stunning range of high-quality equestrian clothing delivering on style appeal. 

 

The clothing provides a beautiful fit and classic design in a range of rich colours and classic whites.

 

Saddle & Canter riding clothing is hard-wearing, soft to the touch, and made of quick-drying, wicking UV-protective fabric, offering the ideal blend of durability and comfort.

 

Inspired by both the outdoors and the very latest international trends, Saddle & Canter equestrian designs outperform in both form and function. 

 

Saddle & Canter produce New Zealand designed clothing for young riders through to adults with an ever increasing collection suitable for young men too!
