Horse Riding Gilets & Bodywarmers
As horse owners ourselves, the Discount Equestrian team understand all too well the perils of the Great British weather – one minute the sun’s blazing so strongly we reach for the sun cream, the next, rain is hammering upon rooftops beneath thunder and lightning! So, we are continuously searching for the finest quality products for our fantastic Gilets range, without compromising on style, performance, or functionality.
We have all been out and about in our warm weather clothes, a Polo shirt and jodphurs on your horse or at the yard, and all of a sudden, the weather changes bringing in a chill in the air. On colder evenings, between seasons and for layering, a cosy, fitted gilet, or bodywarmer as they are also known, is one of those equestrian wardrobe essentials that you cannot be without. In fact, they are so popular, they are ideal to have ready to wear in a range of colours to suit different outfits for getting out with friends and leisure events, as well as around the yard! Available in a range of colours, styles, and for women, men and children, there is a gilet or bodywarmer to suit your needs in our extensive rider clothing range here at Discount Equestrian. Our prices are unbeatable, and our delivery is second to none, for a great range of rider clothing for riding your horse or off the yard, browse our range of horse and rider clothing now.
