This is a great English tack shop, the people who work there are *so nice* to someone so old she remembers riding when helmets did not even have harnesses! (Though I was a kid, and not allowed to have one)... They've got a great selection of boots and hats and are open about prices and price ranges, because All Dogs Go To Heaven since All Horses Pave Our Way To Financial Hell! Cats, bunnies, etc also go to heaven. The staff is patient and knowledgeable and it is clear they love animals and riding. Today (the owner's, I think) bulldog was dressed to go out into our weather from the North Pole- and he had a Mag Bar (are people from out of town allowed to call it that?) hoodie on!! So cute! Despite being animal-less at the moment, they even gave me free low sugar treats to bestow upon the next horse I ride. I bet after this cold, even the quietest schoolmaster will need a lunge! read more

Hitching Post Tack Shop - Sign out front, right on Main Street in Jeffersontown. - Horse Equipment Shops Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

See all

The saddle pad I've been using is no longer a good fit for my horse .... It's wonderful (Mattes half pad) but has become too bulky as my horse strengthens his top line ... And so the search began ... I contacted Sarah online at The Hitching Post who went above and beyond to help me ... I can't say enough about how terrific she has been to work with ...The five star rating says it all ...!! read more

Good selection of stuff, and friendly staff. My only qualm was that there wasn't as much of a selection for dressage. No full seat breeches or dress boots, however they do have dressage pads and girths. If you're an eventer or jumper, this is the place for you. read more

I have been shopping at Hitching Post for years and am so glad that, between online competition and Covid, that they're not only still around but better than ever. They have a great selection of clothing, footware, (English) tack and barn supplies and their prices are quite competitive with the online competition. Add to this a knowledgeable, helpful and friendly staff and you have a local treasure! read more

Great prices and selections! all the staff are very friendly and always willing to help with any questions I have!

This is the reason I love to shop with a small business! Customer service at its finest: a company that stands behind its merchandise, does whatever is necessary to make the customer happy, and does it all with a smile. Sarah is the epitome of a customer service super star. I had a problem, contacted her, and within mere days everything is solved. No stress, no headache, no problem. In a world of big-box stores, I'll take the small mom-and-pop every day of the week, and I'm happy to pay more to keep places like this in business! (Even though they had the BEST prices around, I might add) read more

Perfect shop. All the essentials at a competitive price. I will always shop brick and mortar over internet when possible. Friendly helpful staff as well. I'm in from SoCal and happened to find this gem thanks to Yelp. Loved the gift selection available and the large selection of helmets available. read more

Great deals and service, brought a couple of saddles, shipped to me. John worked with me to get the saddles to me in little to no time. 5 star. Thank you again read more

Love, love, love this store! My favorite place to buy English tack. The ladies in there are so helpful. They found the perfect pair of field boots and show pants for me. If you are a fairly regular customer, they remember what sort of tack, boots, etc . you have and make recommendations on that. I'm looking to buy a new saddle and will be going here, since they have a great trial policy. Excited about it and believe that shopping experience will be as great as the rest. read more

BEWARE if you are ordering from this shop online. This shop will not take ownership over their shortcomings. I ordered 3 items and still have not received them a month later. John is able to give excuse after excuse as to why the items have taken so long. YET! He refuses to ship the items overnight so that they arrive in time for a championship show. Had I known this order was going to take so long I would have ordered something different. I'm extremely upset with the way I was taken care of as a customer. I own a business myself and am quick ship something expedited if it means the customer is happy (like overnight shipping) -- especially if I promised the item would arrive in time for an important event. I will not be purchasing from this shop again. read more
