Horsepower gallops ahead

HORSEPOWER is a recent addition to The Hills and offers a new concept for Sassafras by aiming to service the local community rather than the tourist.
Offering a wide variety of quality clothing and leather goods, it also stocks a selection of pet supplies and aquarium products. A range of R.M. Williams ladies and menswear and the ever popular boots are stocked.
The classical designs of this iconic Australian company are always of the highest quality and the hard-wearing boots and moleskins have become an Australian legend.
The winter range is extensive, offering pure cotton shirts for business or leisure, moleskins, jeans, trousers, cashmere jumpers and rugby tops. With the onset of winter, protective oilskin coats and Akubra hats give the opportunity to shield ourselves from the worst of weather conditions.
Also on offer is a variety of good quality jumpers and knitted lined jackets and vests.
Warming accessories including socks, gloves, hats, wraps and scarves will also help fend off the winter chills.
The store also stocks quality and unusual leather goods, including handbags, wallets, purses and travel bags, with brands such as Amada, Lambada, Manzoni, R.M. Williams and Mileni.
Horsepower has decided to concentrate only on quality items and therefore does not stock any vinyl products. There is also a section devoted to saddlery and pet supplies.
“Please come in and say hello and enjoy our lovely wood fire and what we hope will be an enjoyable experience,” said Horsepower proprietor, Graeme Johnstone.
