Autumn/Winter Coats: What to look for before making a purchase...

When it comes to staying warm and dry during the autumn and winter months, equestrians know the importance of a reliable waterproof winter coat. Navigating the challenges of autumn weather in an ever-changing climate requires forward-thinking, innovative design solutions. Focusing on a philosophy, we as a company believe it is important clothing can quickly adapt to the fluctuating weather conditions. The clothing's ability to perform across different seasons allows for a rapid adjustment to the diverse needs of the equestrian lifestyle. Whether you're hitting the trails or practicing in the arena, having the right gear can make all the difference in your comfort and performance. 

 

How can a waterproof coat enhance your equestrian experience?

1. Protection from the elements: A waterproof coat will keep you dry in rainy or snowy conditions, allowing you to focus on your ride without being distracted by discomfort.

2. Improved performance: Staying warm and dry can help you maintain flexibility and focus, leading to better performance in the saddle.

3. Extended riding season: With the right autumn/winter coat, you can continue riding even when the weather turns cold, extending your riding season and keeping you in the saddle year-round.

The Spinto Waterproof No-Fill Jacket provides unparalleled protection from the elements. Its waterproof construction and taped seams ensure that the rider stays dry and shielded from the weather, making it ideal for all disciplines. 

To enhance comfort, the Spinto has been expertly designed with equestrians in mind. The incorporation of a technical perforated laser-cut insert, covered with a storm shield across the rider’s shoulders, delivers an enhanced level of protection, ventilation, and breathability. A deep hood and high collar design further add to the practicality and relaxed fit of the jacket, delivering uninterrupted freedom of movement, in and out of the saddle, allowing optimal focus on performance.
