Dressing for success in the dressage arena isn't just about looking good; it's about functionality, comfort, and confidence. As an equestrian, the right horseriding apparel can enhance performance while keeping you stylish and safe. Below, Equestrian Essence, our equestrian store, explores essential dressage apparel items that every rider should consider adding to their wardrobe.
Top Essential Dressage Apparel Items Every Rider Should Own
Dressage Show Jackets
A classic show jacket is an absolute must-have. Opt for a tailored coat, like our Equestrian Stockholm Classic Show Jacket Striking Valley, that provides a flattering silhouette and allows free movement. Choose lightweight, breathable fabrics for comfort throughout your ride. Whether you’re competing or schooling, a well-fitted coat adds sophistication and professionalism to your horseback riding apparel.
Sun Shirts
As outdoor riders, sun protection is crucial. Sun shirts are a fantastic solution, combining comfort with UV-blocking technology. Look for lightweight fabrics that provide breathability while keeping harmful rays at bay. One standout choice is our Hannah Childs Sola Perforated Sun Shirt. This shirt features advanced perforation technology for superior ventilation, ensuring you stay cool on even the hottest days. Protect your skin without sacrificing style!
Riding Breeches
Invest in a good pair of riding breeches, like our NOVELLA The Smooth Fit Full Seat Breeches, that combine comfort, style, and durability. Look for options with varying levels of grip, stretch, and reinforcement to suit your riding style. High-waisted designs can provide added support, while silicone knee patches offer extra stability. Choose a classic color that complements your overall dressage look.
Saddle Pads
A quality saddle pad is essential for both your horse's comfort and your performance in the dressage arena. A well-fitted saddle pad can help improve your saddle's stability, protect your horse's back, and enhance overall communication between horse and rider. One standout option is our PS of Sweden Dark Ivory Dressage Saddle Pad. This saddle pad not only exudes sophistication but is also crafted with innovative materials that wick away moisture and provide excellent shock absorption.
