At HORZEHOODS, every September marks a milestone in our journey, the launch of one of our AW25 Legacy Collection Themes. These collections represent the heart of our brand: designed exclusively in-house within our product development room, refined through our vision and textile expertise, and crafted with equestrians’ daily lives at their core.
This year’s legacy drop is The Porthole Collection, inspired by Franklin Roosevelt’s timeless words:
“To reach a port, we must set sail. Sail, not tie at anchor. Sail, not drift…”
A reminder that progress comes from movement, not standing still. Just as Roosevelt’s portholes gave sailors a glimpse beyond the horizon, our collection is built to give riders a window into confidence – in the saddle, at the yard, or in everyday life.

The Journey Behind the Collection
The Porthole Collection has been years in development, shaped across trips to our overseas manufacturers and countless in-house sessions refining every seam, fabric, and silhouette. It features over 103 brand-new products, each carrying the signature HORZEHOODS DNA: practical performance with hidden style.
This season’s design mood boards drew from vessels, naval detailing, and the bold look of brass portholes. The result? A collection that balances structural, technical design features with fluid functionality, breathable yet warming fabrics, streamlined cuts, and versatile pieces that transition seamlessly from saddle to social.
Our goal remains the same: to create equestrian wear that solves problems while elevating confidence.
The Basicz Range: Everyday Layering, Cost-Effective Styling
For the first time within a legacy collection, we are introducing the Basicz Range: 30 new pieces within the 103-product line-up.
The Basicz line was produced to complement our premium legacy products, providing:
-
Lower-cost essentials sourced by our team without compromising on quality.
-
A white-label sourcing model, elevated by our design team to meet HH standards helping keep basic more simple pieces more cost effective.
-
Mix-and-match versatility, perfect for layering with premium legacy pieces.
By combining the timeless craftsmanship of the Legacy Collection with the affordability of Basicz, we’re giving riders the ability to build wardrobes that are practical, stylish, and cost-effective, without sacrificing the aesthetics and performance HORZEHOODS is known for.
The Porthole Theme: A Legacy of Strength and Movement
Roosevelt’s naval-era portholes symbolised strength, endurance, and the vision to see beyond. Those qualities are deeply woven into this collection. Each September season our collections are created to tell a story, offer a feeling and a moment and memory. Circular detailing, metallic accents, and robust but breathable fabrics nod back to this history, while modern equestrian innovation makes each piece ready for everyday riding life.
Just as ships pressed forward across oceans, this collection is about moving forward with confidence, never anchored, never stagnant.
The Colour Palette
The Porthole Collection draws its palette from the contrasts of sea, sky, and vessel, a balance of strength and elegance seen through every horizon:
-
Navy & Silver – the depth of open waters cut with the glint of light on steel.
-
Black & Golds – the endurance of ironwork accented by brass and burnished metal.
-
Teal & Rose Golds – tides shifting from cool surf to warm sunset glow.
-
Peaches & Blush Pinks – soft horizons at dawn, casting warmth across the deck.
Between these anchors of colour lies a spectrum of blended Pantone transitions, designed to echo the way sea and sky bleed into one another, creating harmony, fluidity, and layers that riders can carry across every season.
Together, these shades create a wardrobe that can be layered across seasons, styled across settings, and lived in for years.

Don’t Miss Out
This is one of our most significant launches yet. HH are known for their jaw dropping edy themes year on year, true masters in the realm of imagination, innovation and practical concepts for horse owners. A true blend of history, innovation, and legacy. All legacy stock is limited edition as always and will only be available until sell out. Although we have created a projection of numbers/volume to try and see us through all of Winter up to February, some products do just sell out quicker than expected especially in popular sizes. Once legacy products sell out we currently have no planned re-production schedules for these; however The Basicz Range will be a staple for restocking in the future.
