Equiclass About Us

A Legacy of Tradition, Craftsmanship, and Excellence in Horse Riding Boots

Established in 2011 by visionary entrepreneur Gina Hornby, Equiclass Limited was founded to provide riders with premium-quality horse riding boots that unite exceptional performance with timeless style. The brand quickly gained recognition within the UK equestrian community for its commitment to quality, elegance, and comfort.

In February 2024, Equiclass entered a new chapter under the leadership of Victoria Saunders. With a profound passion for the equestrian lifestyle and a dedication to upholding the company’s heritage, Tory brings fresh energy and strategic vision. Her focus is on growth, innovation, and the continued delivery of expertly crafted products always rooted in the brand’s original values of craftsmanship, performance, and authenticity.

Exclusive UK Distributor of Secchiari Boots

Where Italian Artistry Meets Equestrian Excellence

Equiclass is proud to be the sole UK distributor of Secchiari Boots, a distinguished Italian brand renowned for its handcrafted custom boots, ankle boots, and tall horse riding boots. Each pair is a result of generations of artisanal expertise, blending traditional boot-making techniques with contemporary design.

Secchiari boots are designed to meet the needs of riders who demand superior comfort, fit, and durability without compromising on style. Whether it’s a tailored pair of custom boots or elegant ankle boots for daily use, every model reflects meticulous attention to detail and a rich heritage of craftsmanship.

The Human Touch Behind Every Boot

In an age of mass production, Secchiari remains dedicated to preserving the ‘human touch’ in every step of the manufacturing process. Every pair of horse riding boots is handcrafted by skilled artisans, using only the finest Italian leather carefully selected for its durability, softness, and performance.

This artisanal approach ensures that every pair of custom boots not only fits perfectly but also delivers a unique riding experience. The result is footwear that becomes a natural extension of the rider both in function and feel while offering long-lasting beauty and exceptional performance.

Looking Ahead: Building a Brighter Future

Under Tory Saunders’ guidance, Equiclass is entering a period of strategic expansion. Plans are in place to broaden the company’s product offering, including new styles of ankle boots, tall boots, and fully custom riding boots and shoes designed to meet the evolving needs of today’s equestrian community.

Equiclass also aims to enhance accessibility by partnering with tack shops throughout the UK and increasing its presence at equestrian events and trade shows. These efforts will allow more riders to experience the comfort, elegance, and craftsmanship of Equiclass and Secchiari products first-hand.

Whether you're an experienced equestrian competitor or new to the sport, Equiclass offers the perfect balance of form, function, and heritage through its curated selection of horse riding boots.

Equiclass remains committed to its founding principles delivering exceptional equestrian footwear, rooted in tradition and crafted for modern riders. Under new leadership and with a clear path forward, the future of Equiclass promises continued excellence in every step.
