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.

The competition riding jackets for men tend to be fairly sober in appearance and the options available come in black, dark grey or navy. The jackets are stylish though and gents have a few choices in detail. This can include the length of the jacket, how many pockets to have and they type of collar to opt for.

Plenty of kids enjoy riding and this can especially be the case with girls. Pikeur cater to this market through their competition jacket aimed specifically at young ladies. This shorter length garment is offered in two colors, with black or navy the choices. Opting for a velvet collar rather than plain can add a nice touch and the easily laundered material makes it the perfect choice for children.

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.

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 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.
