June brings longer days, greener fields, and for many equestrian families, a full calendar of summer horse shows. For dads, that often means hauling trailers, fetching forgotten gloves, and cheering from the sidelines with coffee in hand.
Whether he's deeply involved in the equestrian world or simply your biggest supporter, Father's Day is the perfect excuse to show some love to the hardworking dad in your life.
At Equestrian Fashion Outfitters, we’ve rounded up five of our favourite gifts for dads—practical, thoughtful, and with just the right hint of style. And don’t worry, these picks aren’t just for horsey fathers. There’s something here for every kind of dad.
1. Petrie Outlander Boots
For the dad who’s always on the move (and somehow never complains about muddy fields)
These rugged, waterproof boots are built to handle anything from a rainy show day to a long trail walk. Made from durable nubuck leather with a soft calfskin lining, the Petrie Outlanders offer serious comfort and grip. Whether he’s walking cross-country courses or wrangling ponies at the trailer, these boots will have him covered—literally.
2. Schockemöhle Dale Vest
For layering up without the bulk
The Schockemöhle Dale Vest is a must-have for dads who like to keep things practical but polished. It’s lightweight, insulated, and perfect for those in-between weather days when a jacket is too much, but a T-shirt won’t cut it. Whether he’s helping load hay or heading into town, this vest adds a functional layer of warmth and timeless style.
3. HKM Softshell Sport Jacket
For the dad who’s outside rain or shine
Beloved by our own team (and not just the equestrian ones), the HKM Softshell Sport Jacket is a best-seller for a reason. It’s windproof, water-resistant, and effortlessly sharp-looking. From the barn to the grocery store to the sideline of a soccer game, this jacket is made for dads who do it all—while staying warm and dry.
4. HKM Men’s Breeches
For the dad who actually rides
If your dad is in the saddle (or maybe just aspires to be), the HKM Men's Breeches are the perfect blend of function, comfort, and modern style. Available in a wide size range from 30 to 40—including the ever-elusive size 33—these breeches are made to fit real riders.
They come in both full seat and knee patch grip options, so whether he prefers extra security in the saddle or more flexibility, there’s a pair to suit his riding style. Designed for all-day comfort with a sleek, athletic fit, these breeches are a practical and polished addition to any riding wardrobe.
5. QHP & HKM Dog Toys
For his four-legged best friend
Every great dad deserves some fun—and so does his pup! We carry a playful selection of dog toys from both QHP and HKM, designed to hold up to even the toughest chewers. From carrot-shaped squeakers to horse-head toys and extra-large toys for bigger dogs, these barn-approved favorites are perfect for games of fetch, tug-of-war, or just keeping his furry sidekick entertained while he’s busy with barn duties.
Show Dad Some Love This Father’s Day
From the barn helper to the trailer driver to the behind-the-scenes hero—dad deserves something special. Whether he’s an equestrian himself or just the ultimate supporter, we’ve got thoughtful gifts that are sure to make him smile.
