Riding In Style With A Pikeur Jacket

By Katrina Wheeler


A Pikeur jacket is the garment to be seen in for those that take their horse riding seriously. This equine and country clothing retailer offers a wide range of ladies competition jackets. These come in both short and longer lengths and a few different styles from classic to more modern. Ladies have a few materials to choose from such as tweed, polyester mix and soft shell fabric. Some of the colors available include black, grey, bronze and red.

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

Apart from competition apparel, Pikeur also offers a range of casual wear for riding. Some of the garments available include fleece jackets for anyone that wants a little more warmth and hooded styles to provide cover for the head. Other casual styles include quilted down jackets and stylish blousons. While the majority of the casual styles are aimed at women, there are some available for men.

Wet weather does not keep riders inside and there are a few waterproof styles available for those that go out in the rain. These include a few features that are designed to keep water out and the rider comfortable. Some of these include integrated hoods, taped seams, and elasticized waistbands and cuffs. These help to keep the jackets waterproof and windproof.

The company does not only make jackets for riding and there are a few options for those that want to retain the Pikeur look in their everyday life. The Latessa ladies jacket is an example of this. This mid-length jacket is designed to keep the wearer warm and has stylish features such as chest and waist pockets, stand up collar and back adjustment to ensure a perfect fit.

There are two basic ways to get your hands on a Pikeur jacket. The first is a ready-made garment, with the company having most of their jackets available for sale in this style. These came in many sizes to enable someone to find the perfect fit. For those that want to add extra touches to a jacket, a custom service is offered. This can enable a rider to wear something unique.
