The Best Horse Riding Jackets
The lighter evenings are a sign that spring is on its way, so it's time to start switching to transitional outer layers. At this time of year, we equestrians can find it hard to know what outer layers we should wear as it's too cold to wear a base layer alone, yet often a warm winter riding coat isn't needed. So we've gathered together our favourite horse riding jackets that are perfect outer layers for late winter and early spring. Don't forget, you'll earn Rosette Reward Points and receive FREE UK delivery on all orders over £20 at EQUUS!
Rider Favourite
Weatherbeeta Kyla Technical Waterproof Jacket
Back by popular demand, the Weatherbeeta Kyla Technical Waterproof Jacket was so popular last winter that it completely sold out! It's back this year in its original classic navy and in a smart new grey colour. It's 100% waterproof, breathable, has a filled lining and a high collar to keep you snug, and is the perfect transitional piece to take you into winter.
