5 Things To Look For In Winter Riding Coats

Choosing a warm winter riding coat or winter riding jacket can be difficult with so many coats on the market. In this blog, we share five things you should look for when considering a horse riding coat for winter.

 Long Or Short Winter Riding Coat?

Looking for a quality winter jacket that is ready for the cold weather will be a priority for most equestrians. Long winter riding coats are great for full coverage in the saddle, whilst short riding jackets offer versatility when paired with your technical base layers and riding leggings. Some riders prefer to wear a short coat to wear an extra layer or two underneath. Other riders prefer to ride in a long coat because they can wear fewer layers on their bottom half.

What To Consider In A Winter Jacket

When looking for outer layers, you must decide what your priority is: warmth, waterproof, showerproof or water resistant. This is important to consider if you are looking for outer layers to ride in during all weather conditions. Our puffer jacket designs are water resistant, and our EQC Team Jacket is styled in a soft shell fabric with showerproof properties and a warm fleece lining. 

What Makes A Winter Jacket Suitable For Riding?

As a stylish equestrian, you want to look for those details which make the coat comfortable and fit for riding. Look for details that make the coat suitable for riding in. Longer-style riding coats should allow you to move in the saddle. Our Long Puffer Coat has side zips that you can unzip to allow freedom of movement when sat in the saddle. Inner chest pocket for stashing your treats and a removable and adjustable hood to give you the flexibility of fit. Our Exclusive Short Puffer Jacket is the perfect women's winter riding jacket.

Colourful Or Classic Winter Riding Coat?

Choosing a coat or riding jacket in a fashionable colour will enable you to wear it from the yard to the city with confidence.
