Riding In Style With A Pikeur Jacket

By Katrina Wheeler


Competitive horse trial riding needs to be carried out in the correct outfit and a Pikeur jacket is made with this in mind. Their jackets for women have a few variations in look and detail so a rider can find one that suits them best. Features that can vary from garment to garment include style, length, material and color. This ranges from traditional brown tweed to contemporary red soft shell jackets.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.
