Can You Spare A Pair? We Need Your Riding Attire!
|
When supplies at The Rider's Closet run low and we put out the call, our generous equestrian community is always there for us and those we serve!
As we ramp up for the 2026 riding season, we once again need your help in replenishing our depleted inventory. We're hoping you have some gently used riding apparel and boots you no longer need and are ready to pass along. We'll take it from there and make sure everything gets into the hands of deserving fellow riders.
We are currently low on/out of these highly requested items:
• Ladies' tan show-quality breeches, sizes 22R-30R
• Ladies' navy or black show coats, sizes 0-6
• Ladies' long-sleeve white show shirts, XS and S
• Ladies' schooling breeches, sizes 22R-28R
• Ladies' schooling tops, all sizes
• Men's breeches, sizes 28R-34R
• Youth breeches, sizes large, 12R and 14R
• Youth, ladies’ and men’s paddock boots in very good condition
We also welcome any other ladies', men's or youth show or schooling apparel you have to send. For safety reasons, the only items we cannot accept are helmets and protective vests. We also do not accept tack/horse apparel.

Founded by Georgina Bloomberg in 2006, The Rider's Closet became an EQUUS Foundation program in 2019. Recipients of Rider's Closet apparel include equestrians from scholastic riding programs, pony clubs, veterans programs, therapeutic riding centers, equestrian camp programs, equine charities, programs for disadvantaged youth, and individual riders in need. All donations to The Rider's Closet are tax-deductible as allowed by law.
Over 1,000 individual riders, scholastic riding programs, pony clubs, equestrian camp programs and equine charities received over 11,500 items of new and gently used riding apparel in 2025!
Our list of recipients grows every year. Our ability to serve them is only possible because generous riders and equestrian apparel companies keep the donations coming!
You can help make dreams come true for deserving riders!
