Fashionable and functional short riding jackets

A short riding coat sits at the hip rather than covering your seat, which makes it the easier jacket to live with for most of the year. It does not bunch under a saddle, it will not flap in the wind, and it is far less to carry when the weather turns out better than forecast. For riding, yard jobs, dog walking and everything in between, a short coat is usually the one that ends up on the back of the door.

We stock short coats for every season: sporty softshells for schooling, cosy padded and quilted jackets that layer well over a base layer, and classic blouson designs.

If staying dry is your first priority, our waterproof riding jackets are grouped by waterproof rating so you can compare them properly. And for winter riding, or if you want coverage over your seat and the tops of your legs in the saddle, a long riding coat gives you more protection.
