Outstanding Riding Clothes From Pikeur

By Gwen Lowe


Equestrians all over the world love the look and feel of top quality riding clothes. Many people are willing to pay a little extra for clothes that really fit and make them feel great. Confidence is a key issue, especially in the show ring and having any edge can make all the difference between winning and loosing. Those who really appreciate quality choose the Pikeur brand because they know they can rely on every item to meet or exceed their expectations.

The company is from Germany and has a long and successful tradition in the riding apparel business. They initially came to the notice of riders because of their beautifully designed dressage coats. Dressage is the most elegant of horse sports and requires many hours of training. Horse and rider work as a team and really have to have outstanding communications. Marks are also awarded for turn out and in a close competition only a few points may separate the winners from the losers. Every rider tries to get the advantage and having the very best clothes is all part of the picture.

Every rider needs a good pair of breeches or jodhpurs. These close fitting riding trousers are specially designed to stay comfortable even after hours in the saddle. The newer designs incorporate full seat suede patches that help the rider stay secure and can lead to higher show ring marks.

The long tails are weighted to prevent them moving around. This can be a distraction to the horse or rider and may result in a loss of points. The special blend of materials has created a coat with just enough movement to make the rider comfortable. Yet the coat still maintains its classic look. Models are available to fit both men and women.

Most of the products are still made in Germany by highly skilled craftspeople. Yet buyers in the United States and all over the world are still able to order on line. The ordering process is very easy and a conversion features show the price in the local currency. Sizing in Europe is quite different to North American sizing and can be confusing. Any questions can be directed to the highly efficient customer service department who are only too happy to help.

Show jackets are among the best selling products in the line. The Tosca show jacket is one of the newest additions to the line. The stretch jersey fabric is very comfortable to wear and provides all the movement needed even by jump riders. The contrasting piping and decorative trim make it very popular with younger riders looking for something a little more stylish and updated.

There is also a complete range of children's riding wear. Many youngster compete in shows and need a great set of clothes that will last them through the season. Parents can get everything their child needs including a highly rated safety helmet.

Helmets are one of the most important pieces of equipment. They should fit well and be comfortable. The company has realized that by providing both safety and style they have appealed to riders of all ages. Their helmets are loaded with extra features such as a four point harness and effective ventilation system.
