still swiping in tinder to find as strong and long living relationship as matt and squarespace’s one

“That’s very American and it’s really cool.” Two things I’ve never heard put together by a European 😂 I’m loving the comparisons and talking about things you don’t do outside the US.

Oh you sweet summer child, never heard of tall boots without zippers. I'm so old.

Ahh you meant Veronica from the saddle club, the snooty tooty one 😂 And I could spend an entire day in that tack shop! Don't have many that size here in the UK

Matt you and Harriet are such a blast to watch shop.. love that you brought European eyes to view the omg boldness of American horse fashion.. you need to take Harriet on every shopping video.. add Jesse and Steve and you'd probably be asked to leave the store 🤣🤣🤣🤣

For some people it is shoes, for Matt it is saddlecloths. He does always look so well appointed - I love the looks.

😂 Luxury at Dover...not something I have ever thought.

They need to come to Texas and have someone outfit them in western wear and show them some of the trails we have here. I think it would be quite the experience!

Matt you are so young lol. I'm probably twice your age and when I was younger they didn't make boots with zippers normally. They were all pull-on (hence the boot-pulls). We used to wear nylons, not socks, as thin as could be and put powder in our boots to get them on. You would definitely need someone's help to get them off lol. Only custom boots were made with zippers, and only well-off kids could afford them, not your average kid.

Harriet is soo sweet ❤

I never thought of Dover as luxurious. Maybe they have added items, but I believe they started with cheaper items that they shipped to places that didn't have nice tack shops. Why don't you show the saddles?

No one: Matt: "aCiD tRiP bUt MaKe iT cOmPeTiTiOn" 😂

I can’t tell which surprises me more: My brother jump scaring me in the hall at 12:00 am, or the random SquareSpace ads. 😂 Lol, I love the video Matt! ❤

Boot hooks! When I started riding you couldn't get boots with a zipper (could be because I was poor) you needed boot hooks! It's wild that they're the rotary phone of the horse world. :)

Smartpak is a great amaerican tack store too Matt. And they actually do the halter engraving right on site

« I do love me a good chicken » « Acid trip but make it competition » i love this video so much 😂

Hey Matt, not sure if you can do it during this trip but I think it would be amazing to see how some of the high end saddle makers in the US make their saddles. I am going to list a few brands but feel free to look for more too! (Blue Ribbon and Harris -> Western performance/pleasure saddles) For english saddles it would be really cool to see Voltaire saddles being made (QH people at the world shows are going crazy over them). OR boots and helmets? I think that being educated about the work that goes into our equipment is important.

I so enjoy you and Jesse's videos. You both are so nice and down to earth. Thank you for sharing your videos and stories.

I don’t have a Dover catalog handy, but I think you can make a catalog purchase and get the the brass engraved plate on bridles, saddles and halters. They may even personalize blankets, and tack covers.

Absolutely loving y'alls adventures in American tack shops!

Love your videos - thank you for all of the hard work you put into them!! Just my experience with thinner bits - my horse has a very low, meaty palate and a thick tongue. I had used a regular snaffle on him and he was NOT comfortable - throwing his head and constantly working his mouth even when no pressure was applied. After visits from both my vet and an equine dentist, we determined that my boy would be more comfortable with thinner snaffle since there is no room in his mouth for a thick one. He also has a flexible roller in the middle rather than a joint so that nothing is hitting the top of his mouth. He is much more comfortable with a thinner bit. That said, a thinner bit with heavy/hard hands is awful and some bit designs are horrific!!

I've never been out of the USA, just to Mexico once, I love hearing the different names of things and styles from here than from other countries. Thank you, loved it ❤

It's been so good to see you again!! Loved your shopping videos, looks like you enjoyed the states! ❤

I've never been to the Dover in Wellington, but I do love the one in New Hampshire - not so much because it's high end in some way, but just because they have EVERYTHING. (I think European stuff is actually nicer and more "luxurious" overall.) But yeah - American riding/horse wear really is getting LOUD! People used to blame the Eventers for this trend, but now it's basically everybody.

American rider here, new to your channel and I’m loving your tack store videos. Got me thinking it would be cool to start some kind of exchange type thing and trade tack and stuff across the pond. Shipping would be horrendous but seemed like a cool idea.

And it’s ✨air conditioned ✨ best saying ever 😂

Haven’t watched the video yet, but i know it’s going to be amazing. I love you and your passion and love you have for your horses. Im thankful for you and the genuine joy you give me and so many others. You made me smile in the hardest patches in my life. You got me through so much. Thank you, I love and appreciate everything you do and what you did for me. Keep doing what you’re doing. Proud of you Matt❤️

I love Dover, but as Dutch living in US, I still order everything from Divoza 😂

I love that saddle pad 😍

Loved watching this video and the Tackeria video too Matt, so much beautiful equestrian goodies to look at, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧

"Unique" regarding that patchy Western shirt, so polite!

I love wearing colors! Also I have tattoos on my arms so those UV shirts are everything! Plus it’s a MUST here in Florida.

The Hallelujah chorus upon walking in.😭🤣

“It’s like a pajama” Thank you. Patterned sun shirts are so ugh

I remember when you stacked the saddle cloths on top of each other. There were piles everywhere. Please let us know how you liked the products. Thanks for taking us shopping.

LOVE these shopping videos. Harriet is perfect. :)

That cowboy hat on you looked great

The multi patterned shirt is symbolic of quilting who doesn’t love a beautiful quilt

I Love a Man who Loves to shop and BUY!! xo😊😘

The blue 💙 is lovely with your colouring

Yall cracking jokes about our clothing patterns has me losing it right now. 😂

Dover use to be Miller's. Have shopped there for years. I go crazy shopping for the English tack & hunt clothes. My horses are well dressed, blankets, halters, wraps,etc.

Haha, the "not so nice one" in "The Saddle Club" is Veronica... and the funny thing, I do have one of those bows :P And my name is Veronica. I'm not mean though haha.

Quicksilver is the best! White/gray horse must!

I love dover saddlery. I live one state away. We always took trips up to that store. It's the best in the north east us. 🎉

Super surprise to see Harriet!! Greetings from Germany! 🎉

Frequent this particular Dover! Loved this video❤

I used to shop Dover saddle when I rode English. I am now at my age riding more Western then English but I still have my English saddle from Dover

Dover is a big chain, but it's ABSOLUTELY NOT HIGH END LMAO it's usually super cheap crap imo. Tackeria where you were before is way more high end, as is everything in Wellington in general. It's not normal US stuff.

Love your videos, fun to see another horse guy out there! The halter of your dreams is Quillins from Paris Kentucky. The nicest nameplates ever and the Halters are second to none!

Yes! I use to use boot pulls to get my boots on. It was not good to not have a zipper especially if you got a cramp in your calf! 🤣

Veronica was the mean girl in the saddle club 🤣💀

I so love your opening music for walking in Dover…. That is how I feel when I walk in Dover…. Ahhhhhhhhh. I shop at Dover in Parker, Colorado.

I had questions before this video and the previous videos, and now I am comfortable with my first instincts. Being in the rural Southern US, western tack and clothing and riding were the common appearance (and tacky) but I was put off by that. I’m no “cowboy” and I hate pointy boots and cowboy hats but I loved horses. I believe I would have been a comfortable fit if I had been raised in Europe. Now at 59, it’s too late for me.

Omg i had those hooks to pill my boots on when i was a kid, and i used Mane and tail shampoo both for the horse and myself. Grew up in the states but now live in Europe. Have seen the mane and tail shampoo sold so expensive here, for humans tho.

Love, love DOVER,!!!

With chickens for Jessey pls!!! I already can see him feeding chickens like that...😅

Also our tack shops tend to be regional and breed oriented so if you showed stock breeds you might shop at Rod's, Dover or Stateline for hunters, etc. You will find a wide variety of different items in each of these shops.

Zippers are new and a godsend, the muti-pattern long sleeve shirt is ugly and no one I know would wear it. Looks like you had fun and hopefully learned a lot about us US riders. Not a bad spend and the brown was nice.

What a fun video. Although I wish Matt and Harriet showed us even more items.

I wish the Dover store where I live were this large. That was a nice store.

Still go into Dover, even though no horse now. Still need a few pet care items that I get from there, as it's just down the street from my house.

Dover is my favorite store!! :)

lucky braids for greys. i use it to pop her cornet white band

Oh Matt you have to come to the Land rover 3 day event in KY at the horse park. There is a lady there who makes engraved halters!! Lots of American equestrian items lol. :)

You can order name plates with any name on them for leather head collars, and put them on the head collar yourself. Personally for showing young-stock I use them. They only cost £7.

It’s zen, it’s quiet, it’s air conditioned- quote of life

All this beautiful stuff and the leather, I could nearly smell new leather! ❤😊😂

It's so crazy to see your reactions (culturally and generationally) lol I remember wearing full chaps! HAHA

FYI: Hunt boots don't have zippers. You use the hooks. You can get the halter name plates at Dover, or another horse store I've gotten them from Dover.

Matt you can actually order the head collar plaque’s and attach them to your headcollars!

Fun video! It's Matt learning what a Boot Jack is for me ((not judging but ...🤯😱🧐😜💓)). Thank you both! 😍

Loved this vlog! Matt if you want organisational advice for your saddle pad storage and general organisation message Tidy Tack Rooms here in the UK. She's actually my neighbour! She has done projects abroad before helping people to design their dream tack rooms. Honestly she's incredible, the way she sees things and her passion for organisation is so inspiring! She would be able to help you out :)

Sooooo.. I will say I live in Maine, US.. which to you is most likely Canada! Haha. Yes we do have a decent dressage culture here surprisingly! But, Dover has taken over what used to be State Line Tack. It was great for awhile.. but in most recent years Dover has turned very Hunter Jumper and is certainly not my favorite go to but also is my closest “big” tack shop. I prefer to just order online unless I am traveling.

Oh my gosh!! Haha! You never had pull on boots?! My first pair of Petrie’s were pull on! I still have them!

Dover is Awesome, should try the FITS line

You're really making me want to move to Florida.

The pouty face! 😂

The brand Walsh has halters wit a nameplate on it!

Truly the Best Equestrian store in USA , was called Millers in NYC … Jackie Kennedy Rockefellers & others 😂 all shopped there… Amazingly Gorgeous wear & tack They would have engraved ect .. Anything… I have my mothers Dressage boots still!! And yes the boot hooks & boot remover thingy.. Oh and one super Beautiful wool Blazer, that fit Like a glove … we purchased our saddles there as well With name engraved… maybe Manhattan Saddlery is The place now ..!!! No strip 🤣Mall … ThankYou ThankYou ThankYou M & H ..! 💜♾️🌟🐎🌟♾️💜

Hey Matt Happy Easter 🐇🐣🐇 to you and to your friend too. That was funny video you and your friend in the USA shopping at Dover Saddlery. I really enjoyed that funny video Matt. And please say Happy Easter 🐇🐣🐇 Jess too. With love 🤩💕😘❤❤ to all.

"Acid trip but make it competition." 😂👌

I love all your videos and been watching for a long time from Connecticut. I love this video so much. I wonder if you are willing to make a video about bits and the proper use of bits. I noticed that you made mention about some of the bits being harsh. However, there are not many videos on bits and the proper use of bits. Maybe you interview some experts in the field such as vets, trainers and bit manufacturers to get the various perspective and sound advice. Be well.

Dover is too gud

Now drive 45 minutes north to State Line tack…. They were my favorite when I lived in New England (oooohhh you are in Florida! I was wondering how you were wearing such light clothing in Massachusetts springtime - notoriously bone chilling damp). Well, next time you are in to the Boston area, you can price compare Dover V State Line

They are called boot pulls and boot jack

Fun video.

Tropical, flowery, or beachy pattern is very much bright and sunny Florida. Not much dark colors here because they attract sun/heat. 🌹🌺🌻🌼🪴🌴🏖🏝☀🔥

You should do more videos together. You match each others energy very well .... :D great video!

Hahaha I always folded the last part of the pantleg to escape the velcro :P so you fasten it and then fold it and then socks over ;)

I’m buying a horse this week. I would love to do a spree like this.😂

So who has the most saddle pads, Esme, Matt or Harlow?

That’s called a water fountain! Haha!

i love being roasted by yall as an american horse person 💀

ive gotten a saddle from here and they tell you to get the nameplate engraved at tackeria believe it or not! so you would've had to go back to tackeria to have them engrave a halter nameplate lol

“My American dreams are crushed.” Same. Lol Love, Most Americans

MATT, PLEASE DO THIS FOR YOUR FANS/VIEWERS!!!!!!! Got your attention?? Beacause Of your beautiful olive skin tone and Dark hair - I too am blessed with both- we MUST see you wearing a RED top, T- shirt, dress shirt, what ever style you wish; very soon in one Of your vids. Better yet Jesse needs to also wear a red shirt. You would also be a knockout in Royal Blue…..a light lavender color would be Great to break you into wearing color. In the USA , a large portion Of men for many years now wear many schades Of purple and pink. With NO stigma’s attached. Just Great fashion sense IMHO.

I am a western rider and there aren't any tack stores near where I live for both western and english.

It’s Veronica the mean in TSC

When were you at DOVER? It's right down the road from us !!;;;
