Whether you are riding cross country or are on a young green horse, a body protector never goes astray. 

Safety should be the number one priority when it comes to horse riding and this begins with head protection through the use of helmets. However, following this closely is the use of horse-riding body protectors or horse-riding safety vests. Horse riding safety vests or horse riding body protectors are a necessity when you are out riding cross country but also a great precaution to wear when riding a young, green and unfamiliar horse.

Horse riding body protectors, otherwise known as cross-country vests or safety vests, are designed as an added layer of protection when out on cross-country or if you are wanting to take added safety precautions on young/unpredictable horses. Simply wearing a vest can give you a vote of confidence in the saddle as you are at peace knowing you are wearing a safety layer. Horse riding body vests are designed with dense foam which allows any impact from a fall to be spread which can assist in avoiding critical injury.
