Women's riding vests & waistcoats

Ladies' vests for horse riding, both protective and down, are an important element of every rider's wardrobe. Ladies' protective vests are supposed to protect your spine and the down ones to provide warmth.

Which vests to choose?

Buying a protective vest is just as important as buying a helmet. Helmet's job is to protect your head, while the vest's job is to protect your chest and spine. EQUISHOP recommends safe vests from a popular brand DAINESE, which applied their knowledge gained from longtime experience in the production of protective clothing for bikers into the world of horse riding. Such vest needs to meet a few criteria: it needs to have certificates, then it needs to be of proper size, which means that its length has to be just right so it would not catch the saddle and its width should allow you to freely move your arms. A protective vest can be worn either on clothes or under them. EQUISHOP has in its offer two models of ladies' protective vests. A full ladies' vest MILTON SOFT E1 that protects the back and chest. This model is allowed during eventing competitions. Another model is a ladies' vest ALTER REAL for the back. This model provides protection just for the back and is suitable for use during trainings.

Which ladies' vest would be best in stable?

In stable, just as during training, you can also make use of a vest. You can choose (as is the case with jackets) between various thickness. All vests for horse riding have a few common features: high-quality of used materials, functionality, and easy maintenance. Each season PIKEUR, KINGSLAND and EQUILINE release a few models of vests adjusted to the riders' needs.
