Essential Fall Horse Gear: What’s on My Shopping List This Season

Essential Fall Horse Shopping Guide: Must-Have Products for Your Barn

Though temperatures are still soaring over 100°F in Arizona, cooler weather is on the horizon, and with it comes more riding opportunities for horse owners across the state. As we gear up for fall, now’s the perfect time to ensure our horses are ready for the season ahead. From essential safety gear to tools for trailer upkeep, being prepared is key to keeping our equine partners comfortable and healthy as the weather changes. In this fall horse shopping guide, I’ll share my top picks for must-have items from trusted brands like Corro, Core Balance, and Revelation Ranch Performance Horse Supply.

1. Back on Track Boots from Corro Shop

One of my favorite ways to aid recovery is with the Back on Track Royal Quick Wraps from Corro Shop. These boots are infused with Welltex fabric to promote circulation and reduce inflammation, making them perfect for fall training sessions when your horse might be dealing with cooler weather stiffness or stocking up. My horses all have their own pairs, but Jack’s need some TLC and I should probably go ahead and order more before cooler weather gets here. Whether you're getting ready for a show or just keeping your horse comfortable, these boots are an absolute must-have for your tack room this season.

2. Core Balance Renew Electrolyte Paste

Keeping your horse hydrated and balanced is crucial, especially with the fluctuating fall temperatures. The Core Balance Renew Paste provides a quick and efficient way to replenish lost minerals after workouts. It’s an excellent addition to your feed routine as the weather cools down and you want to ensure your horse maintains peak performance. You can easily shop for this essential paste here.

3. Boss Collapsible Horse Buckets

Traveling to shows or hitting the trails? The Boss Buckets are a game-changer when it comes to managing water on the go. These collapsible buckets are lightweight, easy to store, and durable enough to last all season long. Whether you're hauling your horse to an event or just need reliable water buckets at home, these are a must-buy. They take up minimal space and are available in several sizes, perfect for fall horse events. Also, can we talk about the color selection?!

4. Impact Drill Set from Amazon for Your Trailer

Trailering horses requires not only attention to safety but also the right tools for emergencies. An Impact Drill is a lifesaver when it comes to maintaining and quickly fixing your horse trailer. Whether you need to change a tire or make a quick adjustment , this tool ensures you're prepared for anything. As the fall season brings more travel in the southwest, it’s a good idea to invest in this must-have gadget for your trailer kit. This one got good reviews on Amazon, but I’d be interested to hear your favorites!

5. Easyboot Cloud Boots from Revelation Ranch Performance Horse Supply

If your horse is recovering from an injury or simply needs extra support, the Easyboot Cloud Boots from Revelation Ranch Performance Horse Supply** are perfect for providing comfort and protection. These therapeutic boots are designed to relieve pressure and distribute weight evenly, reducing the stress on your horse's legs and hooves. Perfect for those long show weekends, trailer rides, or post-ride recovery, Easyboot Cloud Boots are a smart investment for fall.

6. Show Pads from Cuttinup Show Blankets

When it comes to making a statement in the show pen, a quality show pad is essential. Cuttinup Show Blankets offers a range of stylish and functional show pads that are perfect for fall competitions. They also support some of the local organizations I work with - which is a big selling point for me! Whether you’re competing in Western pleasure, cutting, or reining, these show pads provide both comfort and flair. Not only will your horse stand out, but the high-quality craftsmanship and countour ensures they stay comfortable for your horse during those long days at the arena.
