The Fine Print
We love our products and we're happy to take them back - even custom items. We'll happily take back everything from engraved halters to personalized jackets - even embroidered blankets that have been worn (minus the manure, please). But there are a few things we have to restrict returns on (silly federal regulations).
Undergarments
Health regulations require that undergarments (including bras) need to be in new condition (tags and packages intact) in order to be returned. (Even if it wasn't required, do you really want to shop from a store that takes back used undergarments?!)
Saddles
As riders, we know what a big investment a saddle is. That's why we're proud to offer the best Test Ride program in the business. You can keep our Test Ride saddles risk-free for five days, to really make sure you like the fit and the feel. We know that to truly try a saddle, you have to really ride in it. So go ahead and girth it up. Forget about wrapping your stirrup leathers. Try it with or without a saddle pad. Basically, treat it like you already bought it, so you can make sure you really want to. Because when you buy a saddle from us, we want to make sure you love it. Of course, we want our other customers to love their new saddles, too.
That's why we have a Test Ride option for each saddle we carry - so that all of the other saddles can stay in pristine condition, waiting for their new owners. For this reason, if you purchase a saddle outside the Test Ride program, it's still eligible for return, but must be free from any marks or damage.
So that's it. Seriously. Those are all of our "rules." Well, except the most important one - treating our customers the way we want to be treated. So if you have any questions or if there is anything we can do, please call us at 1-800-461-8898 or email CustomerCare@SmartPak.com. We are always happy to help.

I love my new helmet. So comfortable
Almost wore it home. Forgot it was on my head. Now, that's comfortable! The fit was right on per the measurement guide when ordered. Good ventilation. I am very happy with my new helmet. I hope I never "need" it but will be glad to have it on if I ever do. I am 62, female & just got my horse last Fall, or should I say Autumn as to not jinx myself. :)

Very comfortable and fits my head well.
I bought this helmet about a month ago to wear for the summer months. I moved from upstate NY to NC where I have to adjust to the humidity. I think this helmet will more comfortable and cooler than my older helmet.

Great for Larger Heads (or bigger hairstyles)!
I recently had an ethnic braiding hairstyle done and was told my regular helmet would fit over it. It didn’t, and I was so worried that I wouldn’t be able to find a helmet that fit my head for my upcoming rated show. All of the other large/extra large helmets I researched were over $400...I started to lose hope...until I tried this helmet. In XL, it had no problem fitting my head and hairstyle, all at a reasonable price! With a little finer adjustments with the padding, it fit perfectly! I am so glad I gave this a try!

safe and comfortable!
I've had one of these for years. My horse tripped and fell on me and it saved my life 8 years ago. I am a repeat customer for this helmet - it is all I will ever ride in! I am in the southeast, so it is HOT, but I never have an issue with this helmet. It is like I'm not even wearing one, but know that I will be safe in it!

Excellent for long oval heads!
I've tried a lot of helmets and always come back to the Tipperary Sportage. It fits, it's comfortable and I'll buy another one, when I need a helmet.

Finally - a schooling helmet that fits.
My purple helmet!
When Troxel changed their retention/fitting system a few years ago, the Dakota helmet no longer fit. Plus, I have never been able to wear a dial-fit in any brand.
The Tipperary Sportage, through the use of movable padding, is a perfect fit for my size 6 1/2 head.
Most importantly in S. Louisiana, it's cool!

Great helmet but not a fit for me
I really wanted this helmet but I’m guessing I have an oval head and it fits a round, lots of pressure against my forehead

Love the carbon fiber look
Helmet is very comfy. My hat size is 6 3/4 so I went with the Medium and added in the extra padding they provided. Fits great now. Light weight and venting should help on those hot and humid days. Cute color choices.

Best helmet for schooling!
I bought this helmet in matte black at my local tack store a few weeks ago and I'm so glad I did! I have always used Troxel helmets and they were very unflattering on me. This helmet actually looks good, and I love how protective it is for the back of the head. I recommend this helmet 100%!

Super comfortable, fun colors!
I really like this helmet for several reasons- it comes down just a bit more in the back, so it really protects the back of the head. It is lightweight, and has lots of air vents, so it keeps your head cooler. Comes with foam inserts so you can customize the fit! It is very comfortable, and came in a variety of nice colors. I was able to get purple!

Very comfortable. Color wasn't a cocoa brown, more of a dark chocolate. But better than black which I didn't want.

Excellent helmet for riding
Love the color and the fit. I only had to change out a couple pads for a perfect fit. It's light weight and breathes well, which is important in this New Mexico heat.

Lightweight and Comfortable
This helmet is so comfortable. The air vents help considerably (I tend to sweat a lot). An added bonus is how lightweight and low-profile it is. Great purchase at an amazing price!

Came Highly Recommended
While I haven't yet used my new Tipperary helmet, for those of you who measure just between medium and large sizes, the medium fit me perfectly (and my head shape is more oval than round). It's quite snug but very comfy and the padding has just enough give to keep it firmly in place. As to being lightweight and well ventilated, the Sportage came highly recommended by several endurance riders and they should certainly appreciate those qualities!

Love it!!!!
I have been looking for a light weight and breathable helmet for awhile now and so glad I tried this on at a local tack store. I have a very small narrow oval shaped head and tend to be hard to fit, the x-small in this fits me perfect ( I wear a 6 5/8 in Charles Owen Jr8). I love the venting in this and the low profile look.

This helmet saved my noggin
I am on my second Tipperary Sportage. I trail ride mainly. One year ago I was doing some transitions on the flat with my gelding. Some how picking up a canter from a walk he managed to stumble and toss me forward as he himself came down on his face. He flung me so hard his bridle came completely off with me. I landed square on the crown of my head as I cartwheeled over. Outwardly, only some mud was visible but I replaced the helmet with another. I chose Tipperary again due to how well it held up and cushioned my landing. The cover for the chin strap is unraveling from the Velcro so I don’t mess with it much. It fits quite comfortably and he padding is adjustable. I am prone to tension headaches and frequent migraines. I have to be cautious with hats and headbands. I honestly forget that it’s on until I bump the door frame of my car when I’m leaving the barn. I will continue to buy this brand of helmet and am currently eyeing the hybrid model. I love the blue so maybe they will tone down the royal with a navy shade soon. I never rode with a helmet until the last two years and now I won’t mount up and hack out on any horse without one. Nope, nope, nope. Thanks SmartPak for carrying an affordable and quality helmet.

Nice helmet
I purchased this along with a few other helmets, to try fit. This ended up going back, because the strap was set at an awkward place for me, and it cut into my throat. I found the large logo on the front a little obnoxious, but other than that, the helmet was nice quality and fit my big head.

Great Helmet
This is my 2nd Tipperary helmet. I previously used a T2 helmet and made a HellHat with it. I like the Sportage best. I bought this helmet to make another HellHat. It has a smaller visor than my T2 did, which I prefer for the HellHat. This helmet has a lot of ventilation slots in it, great for my summer trail riding. This helmet was made in March of 2017. I will get to use this one the full 5 years before I change to another. Very Happy with my purchase!

LOVE this helmet!
This is the second one of these helmets that I've bought, my first having gone through 7 years of riding, plus several international flights and two moves. This helmet is fantastic! First, if you have a more oval-shaped head like I do, this will fit great. It's actually one of very few schooling helmets that does fit! I especially like the shaping for the ears and how it cups the back of my head. The vents are also wonderful if you're like me and tend to get heat stroke in the summer. All in all, a wonderful schooling helmet for a decent price.
