Riding In Style With A Pikeur Jacket

By Katrina Wheeler


Those that want to look their best out riding should consider a Pikeur Jacket. The ladies competition garments they have for sale are some of the best around. These are offered in varying lengths and while some of the styles are traditional others are more contemporary. Fabrics range from traditional tweed to a modern soft shell material and there is also choice in color from conservative black or grey to brighter red.

Pikeur offer a few options when it comes to competition jackets for men. These are typically offered in either a black or navy color although it is possible to find dark grey garments also. There are a few options to choose from, with some of the differences including length, number of pockets and collar style.

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.

Dressage tails are available for both men and women, with these getting their name from the distinctive length of material hanging down the back of the riders legs. Competitors usually go through their dressage paces in darker colors, so the tails on offer come in either black or navy. Material options include High Wool, which is almost one hundred percent wool or Cool Wool, which is a mix with polyester.

Pikeur does not focus entirely on competition outfits and also stocks casual jackets. These are designed to keep riders comfortable, with fleece or quilted down jackets keeping out the cold while those with hoods provide a little head protection. They are not only designed to be practical though, with styles such as blousons also being fashionable. The casual range is predominantly for ladies although gents will find one or two for them.

Riding is an all-weather sport and for wetter days a Pikeur waterproof jacket is a sensible choice. Wearing one will keep a rider drier out in the rain and make for a more pleasant ride. Features incorporated into the design that help with this include taped seams to stop water ingress, elasticated cuffs and waist for a tight seal, and attached hoods that can be used when needed.

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.
