Dear Friends,

​

As a young girl, my daughter rode ponies at parties with her friends and classmates. In her spare time during her teen years, she volunteered alongside her aunt at a local therapeutic horsemanship center. After witnessing some of the amazing results and miracles through which the local program was part of, her interest for horses increased even stronger than before. We began to research information on horses and statistics associated with them, and learned staggering numbers about these beautiful animals. The amount of horses dying every year from suffering under abusive conditions or being transported to other countries for slaughtering, is quite astonishing, and disturbing at the same time. Troubled by these discoveries, we combined our will to strike change with our family’s passion for clothing. Inspired by these two feelings and ideas, our family came up with a clothing brand that embodies “casual” but “classy” elements with a horse as the focal point.

As the United States colors significance represent Valor, Purity, and Vigilance, the horse represents similar meanings that of Bravery, Clarity, and Devotion. It was only appropriate for our signature logo’s details should incorporate a design that mimics one of the “Star & Stripe” horse! We salute and honor our heroes who fight for our freedom daily as well we acknowledge and support the horses whom are heroes to millions of people whose lives are enriched and motivated by them.
