Inclusivity
At Kerrits, we strive to celebrate women and female riders of all colors and sizes. We want our brand—and our sport—to be inclusive, not exclusive. Every rider, regardless of body type, race or economic status deserves to be treated with respect. We want to have an open dialogue about how to better represent riders from a variety of backgrounds who bring their best to the barn every day.
