North Florida's The Gift Horse is Going Green


Walk into our store in Jacksonville or click through our online store and you'll find a small patch of "green grass" among all the other wonderful things we carry. Well, it really isn't real grass, but g.r.a.s.s. which stands for Green Riding Apparel for Style & Sustainability.

g.r.a.s.s., a division of Kerrits® , has created riding apparel that is manufactured from environmentally-friendly fabrics - including Organic Cotton, Recycled Poly, Recycled Poly/Carbon, and Bamboo Woven. g.r.a.s.s. is dedicated to finding sustainable solutions for future generations and creating earth friendly alternatives for riding apparel.

The green doesn't stop at the clothes either. The woven labels inside the clothing are made from recycled polyester. And, be sure to toss your hangtag on the ground. Yes, you heard correctly. The hangtags are made from environmentally friendly recycled seed paper, so plant your hangtag and you'll soon see some beautiful wildflowers sprouting!

So, what does the g.r.a.s.s. line look like? Here is a quick peek. Click on the thumbnails below to learn more about each item.






If you're in the greater Jacksonville area, we invite you to stop in to discover our new "green" section of g.r.a.s.s. and if you're not in the area, stop by our online website and check out these awesome clothes!
