Inside the PreserveBarn work that arrives
before the class does.
Sun shirts, team polos, show hats, saddle pads, stall drapes, trailer lettering and sponsor banners — made in Wellington, not shipped in from three states away.
The problem we exist to solve
Almost everything a barn buys — custom saddle pads, coolers, stall drapes, tack room curtains — ships in from New Jersey, Georgia or Ohio on four to seven week lead times. That is fine in September. It is useless in February.
The Winter Equestrian Festival runs thirteen consecutive weeks. If you lose a drape panel in Week 3, pick up a sponsor in Week 6, or qualify for something in Week 12, a six-week lead time means it simply does not happen. We are inside the Equestrian Preserve, which means same week during season and, for most things, considerably faster.
Barn colours, matched properly
Your colours are not a suggestion and "close enough" is not close enough. Send a photo of your standards, your trailer or your existing kit and we will match thread against the actual object, not a screen. If you have a Pantone, better still.
What we make for barns
- UPF sun shirts — long sleeve technical with a zip collar, the garment riders actually live in
- Barn team polos, quarter-zips and jackets — performance fabric, embroidered left chest
- Embroidered show hats and performance caps — exact barn colours
- Custom saddle pads — barn logo embroidered, AP or jumper cut, single or by the dozen
- Coolers and dress sheets — barn colours, large embroidered logo
- Stall drapes, tack room curtains, stall signs and name plates — dress the whole aisle
- Horse trailer lettering — barn name and logo, both sides
- Arena, ring and sponsor banners — mesh, rated for wind and rail mounting
- Grooms’ shirts — the order most barns forget, and the one that earns the most goodwill
How we work with barns
- Same-week turnaround during show season
- We bring samples out to the barn — you should not have to drive in during season
- Thread matched to your actual standards or trailer
- Artwork kept on file for instant reorders
- Emergency reprints and replacements mid-circuit
- Season kits quoted as a package, not piecemeal

Some of what we have made
Barn questions
How fast can you turn barn work around during season?
Same week for most things, and 24–48 hours on decals, signs and small vinyl work. Embroidery on stocked blanks is usually two to four days in season. The comparison worth making is against the four to seven week lead times on shipped-in goods.
Can you match our barn colours exactly?
Yes. Send a photo of your jump standards, trailer or existing kit — or better, drop a sample by. We match thread against the actual object rather than a screen, because screens lie about colour. If you have a Pantone reference, we will work to that.
Do you make stall drapes and tack room curtains?
Yes — panels, stall fronts, doors, table covers and name banners in marine-grade fabric, in your barn colours. A full set is typically six to eight panels. Order by November for the January circuit; in season we can usually replace an individual damaged panel within the week.
Will you come out to the barn?
Yes, and we prefer to. Nobody wants to drive to a storefront during season. We will bring blanks, fabric samples and thread cards out to the aisle — mornings after feed, or whenever it is quiet.
Do you do sponsor and ring banners for the show grounds?
Yes. Mesh banners for ring rails and arena fencing, sponsor step-and-repeats, directional and booth graphics. Mesh matters outdoors here — solid vinyl on a rail acts like a sail and either tears or takes the fence with it.
What about grooms’ shirts?
We will make those too, and we would gently suggest you do. It is the order most barns skip and the one that buys the most goodwill in the aisle. Usually a simpler, more hard-wearing garment than the riders’ kit, and priced accordingly.
Can you do saddle pads for a whole barn?
Yes. Single pads are $98 with your logo; a set of twelve with a matching one-colour monogram is $1,020. Once your logo is digitised the file stays on record, so reorders through the season skip the setup entirely.
What we do not do
We are a decoration and signage shop, not a textile manufacturer. Custom cut-and-sew work — tailored wool coolers, bespoke dress sheets, Sunbrella show awnings — is genuinely better done by the specialists who have been sewing them since the seventies, and we will tell you who they are.
What we own is speed, signage, trailer graphics and the emergency reorder — the things a factory a thousand miles away cannot do for someone standing in a barn aisle on Pierson Road in Week 7.
Got a deadline?
We've got the press.
Send artwork, a rough idea, or a photo of a napkin. We will tell you what it costs and when you can collect it — usually the same business day.
