Five reasons why we're inclined to think so
From the fervour around the Royal Ascot race to the rise of polo events in Asia, the love for horses and all types of equestrian sports just seems to grow worldwide. It’s something not lost on a plethora of luxury brands but few can boast as strong of a link as Hermès.
The French maison’s roots as a saddle maker ensure an intimate connection with the sport and its community. Although Hermès’s product offerings have expanded—there's the exceptional jewellery collection as well as an upcoming foray into skincare—they continue to produce hand-stitched saddles for riding and jumping in collaboration with equestrians themselves. It has also kept the beloved horse as a motif on many of its designs. The way the brand puts it, "the horse was their first-ever customer".
