A correctly fitting hat is an essential piece of equipment for any horse rider to protect your head in the event of a fall. Some competitions and equestrian events require your riding helmet to meet specific safety standards; the standard it needs to meet depends on the discipline you are competing in.
The British Equestrian Trade Association (BETA) have created this useful guide (updated February 2024), so you can ensure the hat you choose is up to the job.
Is you mind still in a muddle over what you need? If you have any questions or would like help with choosing the right hat for you, please get in touch with our Trained Hat Fitting Specialists who will be pleased to help.
