At BARE, we know that being a young rider is about more than just the time in the saddle—it’s about the grooming, the ground-work, and the endless energy of stable life. Our youth riding tops are designed to keep up with every pony cuddle and practice round. We’ve combined breathable fabrics with high-stretch comfort to create a range that keeps kids feeling cool and looking effortlessly stylish.
Made for Play, Built for Performance: Kids Riding Shirts
From vibrant, "matchy-matchy" colours to our signature casual polos, we’ve engineered every piece to handle the high energy of a junior equestrian lifestyle.
The Junior Lineup: Our Three Signature Styles
We’ve kept it simple and effective with three core styles designed for maximum comfort and style:
The Mesh Back Training Tank
The ultimate secret weapon for summer riding. This sleeveless riding shirt features a full breathable mesh back panel to act like built-in air conditioning. It’s feather-light, moisture-wicking, and designed to keep young riders cool when the afternoon heat kicks in.
The BARE Emblem Performance Tee
Stand out in the arena with our signature Emblem Riding T-Shirt. Crafted from professional-grade sports performance fabric, it features 4-way stretch and a high round neck for extra sun protection. With hidden mesh armpit panels and metallic silver branding, it looks effortlessly smart paired with tights or your favourite jeans.
The BARE Logo Relaxed Tee
For the rider who loves a classic look, our Logo Riding T-Shirt is a wardrobe essential. This tee blends a soft, high-quality feel with the performance of a technical top. Featuring a metallic silver BARE horse head logo and a comfortable semi-relaxed fit, it’s the perfect "stable-to-anywhere" staple.

Youth Tops FAQ: Tips for the Rising Star
Are these shirts cool enough for a hot summer day?
Absolutely! Both our mesh back tanks and our emblem tees feature technical ventilation (like those clever armpit mesh panels) to move heat away from the body. They are incredibly lightweight and designed to wick sweat away instantly.
Can my child wear these for sports other than riding?
100%! Because we use professional-grade athletic fabrics, these tops are fantastic for the gym, school sports, or just running around. They offer more stretch and breathability than a standard cotton tee.
How do the sizes fit?
Our youth range is designed with a semi-relaxed fit, meaning they aren't "tight" or restrictive. They provide a flattering silhouette while allowing plenty of room for growing riders to mount, dismount, and groom with ease.
