The start of ZAZA classics!

"Congratulations, Mom and Dad, on another business!" Our son Milan (9) beams as we unpack our first order of ZAZA classics. The hallway of our house is full of boxes, and we carefully tiptoe around to avoid stepping on everything, while the smell of leather slowly wafts. A bit unpleasant, to be honest, because we'd really rather keep the stable smell away from the horses.

But we are proud and excited about the start of ZAZA classics !

It's now July 2024, and we announced the arrival of a new brand in April. In no time, we had 900 email addresses in our database, from people all over the world eager to learn more. And we hadn't even done much advertising yet!

The idea arose through social media. While I (Wendy) was posting videos of my training sessions with explanations, questions poured in about what gear I used. I shared the brand names and online stores, but felt many items deserved an upgrade . Bridles, for example, sometimes didn't quite fit properly. My favorite reins were hard to find or immediately quite expensive. Things could be different, and that's what we've achieved with this first – small – collection.

We hope you enjoy these articles and are inspired to become an even better rider . Thank you in advance for your support, and we hope to hear from you soon.
