The Husk - Brand new breathable products for your horse, all in areasonable price range

A new up and coming brand you may have heard of are the HUSK (Horse Active Sports Kit). Developed for the propose of bringing the fore front of innovation in horse equipment to the masses but keeping it reasonably priced! Good right?

Back in June Georgie and I tried out their very first prototype, a dressage numnah that is both comfortable and cushioned - it supports and distributes your weight evenly over the horses back, but being made of a breathable woven fabric, it subsequently allows air to circulate between the skin and the saddle. Therefore reduces sweat and keeps the skin cool, allowing the muscles to remain cool which is so important to reduce the likelihood of muscle damage when exercising.

And with all good equestrian equipment, you want it to look and striking and cool as possible. Which it does so, don't you think?

The technology behind HUSK. is that it's made up of this special honey comb woven fabric that allows air to flow under the saddle.

You can even see from the above photograph just how cushioned it is, it allows the saddle to mould to the horses back, therefore not creating any pressure points, but keeping the breathable structure.

The evidence - A saddle patch that is basically completely dry after exercise. This was after schooling in a HUSK. numnah for a solid 45 minutes. 

They've also created an entire range of new products too, not just numnahs. It's still a young  growing company, with advise being given by some of the best professionals to help build the best innovative products, without rushing it!

Prototypes are still being produced for the Jump pad, made to fit the monoflap and dual flap saddles. Cut perfectly to fit just right! 

We can't wait to have one for cross country!

Not just numnahs but a range of boots are on the horizon, just days now until they're released. We have a funny feeling they're going to sell out the first batch in no time at all.

I've written before about the importance of keeping tendons cool but supported, and now you can do so with the HUSK. tendon boots. They do look very smart indeed! 

Not only boots, but also bandages. A different type of support but a different role in equestrianism, same breathable system! Usually used for dressage, or just day to day schooling but keeping the tendon protected from knocks, strapes or just general support while the tendons flex, all while allowing air to flow over the tendon area and keeping it cool. 

They just look so smart and well made, we absolutely cannot wait to try them out! Keep your eyes peeled on our twitter for a release date. We'll be retweeting all the action from The HUSK.

Even more exciting is that we've been working with The HUSK. on a revolutionary new pad, and it's like nothing else out there. Won't spoil the surprise but it's traditional in it's look but revolutionary in it's design. 

Keep your eyes peeled for more info!
