When the seasons change, your equestrian clothing needs to keep up with the autumn and winter weather. The temperature drops and rain becomes more frequent, so you need specialised clothing to protect you from the elements.
Here are some of our top clothing picks to keep you warm and dry outdoors in the winter months.
Keep warm with equestrian coats
Whether you’re mucking out the yard or out on a hack, you need a coat to protect you from wind, rain and cold. For equestrians, a standard winter coat won’t cut it – you need a lightweight coat that keeps you warm without restricting movement.
The Ariat Women’s Stable Insulated Jacket is water and wind resistant with a lightweight polyfill quilted lining. One of the leading equestrian brands, Ariat coats guarantee warmth with quality, lightweight materials. Shop all coats here.
Layer up with equestrian gilets
When the temperature falls, layers are your friend. Gilets are perfect for adding some extra warmth when a full coat isn’t needed. They allow free movement of your arms whilst keeping your body warm with an additional layer of padding.
The Hy Equestrian Synergy Flex Gilet offers ultimate flexibility and warmth with its four-way stretch fabric. If you get caught in the rain, the quick-drying material with micro-mesh side panels increases airflow to allow the gilet to dry fast. Shop all gilets here.
Stay dry with equestrian waterproofs
It’s not just your top half that needs to stay dry when you’re outdoors. Waterproof chaps are a good investment for the winter months to give you extra protection when you’re caught in the rain.
Adults Horseware Full Leg Cotton Lined Chaps are waterproof chaps to protect your jodhpurs from rain. With an adjustable belt and lightweight material, the chaps provide ultimate comfort whilst keeping you dry while you ride.
Protect your hands with riding gloves
Riding gloves are essential all year round, but having a high-quality pair that keeps your fingers warm in the winter is a must. Cold winter conditions can numb your fingers and cause dryness if your hands lack adequate protection.
The KM Elite Pro Grip Riding Gloves provide year-round protection for your hands. The close-fit design keeps your fingers toasty, while the superior grips ensure you keep control during your ride. If you find yourself getting a little too warm, the sweat-absorbing palm keeps your hands dry. Shop all gloves here.
