Cantaloup began life as The Resplendent Rider in 2018,
Much changed for the entire world in 2020/2021 & during this time I reflected on my business.
Simply, our customers had increasingly embraced our more exclusive stocks with vintage & intricate detailing, which prompted the review the logos and branding, & The Resplendent Rider was relaunched as Cantaloup.
I see Cantaloup as a fresh reflection of our beautiful stocks & the wonderful customers that have embraced our designs & enabled our growth.
The constant through our evolution is honouring the partnership between horse & rider, of elegance and expression, & the fusion of vintage with technology through limited edition, bespoke and one-off stocks & stock ties for English equestrian disciplines.
Cantaloup is the blending of a pedigree littered with horsemen & horsewomen, dairy farmers, tailors & milliners, being lucky enough to have a dad start me riding as a little kid which continued throughout my life, & my own career in the fashion industry.
My fashion design, manufacturing & product development career spans more than 30 years, during which time I've designed technical apparel for extreme athletes, worked on exquisite couture bridal and everything in between.
I hope you enjoy riding with us!
Ros Fraser.
