Meet the Riders Behind Birch & Bridle

At Birch & Bridle, we believe the people behind the sport matter just as much as the pieces they wear.

Our sponsored riders bring different experiences, disciplines, goals, and perspectives, and share their thoughtful approaches to riding, preparation, horse care, and personal style. 

In this feature, we’re introducing the riders we’re proud to support, sharing a little more about what they are working toward, and some of their favourite products from Birch & Bridle.

ZOE CAUCHON

Zoe has been riding most of her life, and currently competes in eventing with her 18-hand gentle giant, Tobias. After completing their first full season together at the EV90 level and spending two summers training in Ocala with Olympian Jessica Phoenix, they are now focused on building consistency, confidence, and an even stronger partnership, with hopes of continuing to move up.

Rider Tested: "The Stella Cavalla breeches have to be one of my favourites. They're the grippiest pair of breeches I own and they make me feel so secure in the saddle. I've also been loving the Sixteen Cypress dressage pad. The trim gives it such an elegant look, but it's also super functional and sweat-wicking, which has been perfect for our summer rides."

NIKKI KRZYNOWEK

Nikki competes with both her young hunter and her jumper mare across Ontario's Silver and Gold show circuits, while also supporting local Trillium and schooling shows throughout the season. Passionate about developing her horses and enjoying every step of the journey, she's focused on making the most of a busy summer alongside her horses and show team.

Rider Tested: "My current favourites are the Milrey blouses in both the short and long-sleeve styles. They’re incredibly stretchy and soft, and the perforated fabric is perfect for summer. They look polished and professional, making them just as suitable for riding at home as they are for the show ring."
