Equestrian Cross Country Tops
Whether you enjoy rigorous training on the cross country course, or you revel in competing at hunter trials, or you love the thrill of the eventing phase in one-day and three-day events, you’re likely to wear cross country colours.
The purpose for utilising cross country colours vary from rider to rider, for instance, professional riders may select colours to match their sponsor’s brand theme, some riders may have an affinity for certain colours due to the good luck they’ve experienced while wearing them, and other riders choose their cross country colours because they love how the colour complements both their own style preferences and their horse’s coat.
It is important to remember that while colour is an essential consideration, a cross country top should also enhance rider comfort and safety. That is the reason cross country tops tend to have longer sleeves yet are manufactured using highly technical materials to allow freedom of movement while also preventing the rider from overheating.
Here at Discount Equestrian, we stock a wide range of ‘off the shelf’ cross country tops that can be teamed up with a matching colour jockey skull silk, to give you a beautifully co-ordinated look. We can also help you take colour co-ordination to a whole new level, since we stock a fabulous array of saddlecloths, horse boots, rugs, and headcollars that will match your chosen cross-country attire! We also offer options for bespoke design in our amazing Cross Country Tops collection, for those of you in search of wonderfully unique competition clothing.
