What does HKM make?
HKM (founded in Neuenhaus, Germany) is a broad-range equestrian brand focused on practical, keenly-priced kit for the yard, the field and the arena. In this collection you'll find horse rugs and coolers, turnout and stable rugs, fly protection, bridles and bridlework, girths, boots for both horse and rider, lunge equipment, competition clothing and safety gear. It's a good place to start if you want reliable everyday essentials without a premium price tag.
Which HKM range is right for me?
HKM organises much of its horse gear into named ranges. Here's a quick guide to the ones you'll see most often in this collection.
| Range / type | What it covers | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| HKM Antifly | Fly masks, fly rugs and fringes | Summer turnout and fly-sensitive horses |
| Softopren | Neoprene-padded girths, boots and overreach boots | Everyday schooling and hacking comfort |
| Winter Thermo | Insulated, fur-lined yard and stable boots (rider) | Cold, wet mucking-out mornings |
| Pro Anatomic / bridles | Anatomically shaped and padded bridles | Riders wanting pressure-relieving fit |
| Cooler & Eczema rugs | Sweat-wicking coolers and sweet-itch rugs | Drying off after work; sweet-itch management |
| Body & back protectors | Certified safety vests and back braces | Riders prioritising impact protection |
How do I choose a size?
Rugs are measured in the standard UK way — in feet and inches along the horse from the centre of the chest to the point of the buttock. Riding and yard boots follow standard UK/EU shoe sizing, though HKM boots can vary between styles, so check the size guide on each product page. For safety items such as the HKM Body Protector Easy Fit and back braces, correct fit is what makes them work: we'd always recommend being measured and fitted by a trained retailer rather than guessing from a chart.

HKM: your questions answered
Is HKM a good brand?
HKM is a well-established German equestrian brand known for offering practical, good-value kit across a very wide range — rugs, boots, bridles, fly gear and safety items. It's a popular choice for riders who want dependable everyday equipment without paying premium prices.
Where is HKM from?
HKM is based in Neuenhaus, Germany, and has produced equestrian gear for decades. The brand designs a broad catalogue of horse and rider products that it sells through retailers across the UK and Europe.
How much do HKM products cost?
Prices in this collection currently run from around £2.91 for accessories such as fly fringes up to roughly £105 for certified body protectors, with plenty of everyday items — girths, coolers and fly masks — in the £10–£35 range. Availability and prices change, so check each product page for the latest.
Are HKM body protectors safety certified?
Yes — HKM body protectors such as the Easy Fit are made to the EN 13158 Level 3 standard. For any protector to do its job, it must fit correctly, so we recommend being measured and fitted by a trained retailer before you ride in it.
How do I choose the right HKM bridle?
Start with the correct size for your horse (pony, cob, full) and consider an anatomically shaped option like the Pro Anatomic if your horse is sensitive around the poll or nose. Bit, bridle and noseband fit affects your horse's comfort and way of going, so it's best checked with a knowledgeable saddler or instructor.
Do you offer free UK delivery on HKM?
Yes. UK delivery is free on orders over £50, with next-day dispatch available on eligible items ordered before 4pm and a 90-day returns window. We're a family-run UK retailer that has served riders since 2010.
