Women's Soft Shell Jackets

What are the advantages of soft shell jackets when riding?

The numerous advantages of the functional textile soft shell are also used in equestrian sports. Despite its light weight, the soft shell material blend has a considerable warming effect. The elastic fabric ensures a high level of wearing comfort, which is of great value for equestrian sports with a lot of movement and stable work. The material is water-repellent as well as windproof and at the same time breathable, so that a soft shell jacket offers you optimal protection in dry weather as well as in light rain. All these properties make soft shell an excellent material for outdoor activities, which is why it is also so popular in equestrian sports.
In our shop you can buy different designs and colours of soft shell jackets; the selection leaves nothing to be desired. Our soft shell jackets for riding have a high collar with hood, so you are optimally protected from wind and cold draughts. Practical pockets keep your mobile phone, keys or tissues safe thanks to the zips. Velcro fastenings and elasticated cuffs allow for adjustable hem and sleeve widths.

Are soft shell jackets waterproof?

Unlike a fleece jacket, which has the same level of comfort as a soft shell jacket, a soft shell jacket is more waterproof, but not completely waterproof. This is due to both the material and the fact that there are no waterproof zips and seams.
If you are going on long rides and want to protect yourself from the rain, you should choose a waterproof rain jacket. In our range you will find a large selection of different rainwear for women.

How should the soft shell jacket be washed?

Soft shell jackets usually have a water-repellent surface that can be ruined by washing too often. Therefore, only wash your soft shell riding jacket when necessary. You can remove light dirt with a soft brush. If you want to wash your soft shell jacket in the washing machine, follow the instructions below:

• Use a mild detergent
• Do not use fabric softener, which damages the protection of the fibres.
• Wash your jacket at 30°C on a gentle cycle.
• Set an extra rinse cycle
• Hang your soft shell jacket up to air dry.
