Riding In Style With A Pikeur Jacket

By Katrina Wheeler


Competitive horse trial riding needs to be carried out in the correct outfit and a Pikeur jacket is made with this in mind. Their jackets for women have a few variations in look and detail so a rider can find one that suits them best. Features that can vary from garment to garment include style, length, material and color. This ranges from traditional brown tweed to contemporary red soft shell jackets.

Men can buy their competition riding jackets from Pikeur, with a few selections available. These come in darker colors such as navy, grey and black. While the jackets available look similar in style there are a few noticeable differences. The number of pockets can vary, as can the length of the jacket and the style of the collar.

Pikeur is set up predominantly for the adult market although does provide an option for kids. The Skarlett competition jacket is designed for girls and is a shorter length garment made from washable material. Girls have the option of a navy or black color and can change the plain collar to velvet for a little added style.

Pikeur has a line of dressage jackets and coats. These are also known as tails because of the longer length, which typically hangs down to the back of the thighs. Both ladies and gents dressage coats are available and are produced in black or navy, with the dressage discipline of horse riding competition usually requiring conservative colors such as these. The garments are manufactured in wool or a polyester and wool blend

Away from the competition ground riders can opt for one of the Pikeur casual riding jackets. These come in a variety of styles and materials from practical fleece or down garments to more stylish blouson jackets. This gives plenty of options to find the perfect choice. This is especially the case for ladies, with the majority of the casual wear designed for them.

Riding in the rain does not necessarily have to be uncomfortable, with wet weather gear designed to make it more bearable. Pikeur waterproof jackets are made with keeping a rider dry in mind. The taped seams, as well as the elasticized sleeves and waist help to keep water out. The integrated hood will also keep the head drier.

The Pikeur style extends to life away from horse riding and there are a few jackets that can be worn at any time. Women have options such as the Latessa, which is a three-quarter length jacket meant for cooler weather. As well as being warm, it is also a practical choice. The chest and pat pockets provide some space to carry essentials and a vent and adjustment feature in the rear allow it to be altered for a better fit.

Anyone looking to buy a Pikeur Jacket has a couple of options open to them. The company has a selection of pre-manufactured garments ready for sale and these come in a range of sizes. The second option is a customized garment, which is available for some of the competition jackets. It can provide a more individual look although customers will need to wait longer to get the finished product.
