Women's riding shirts on Black Friday
The women's riding shirts bring together competition and training models from Horse Pilot, QHP, Vestrum, Romfh, Kingsland, Boss Equestrian, Tommy Hilfiger Equestrian, Equiline, Covalliero, Catago, and Harry's Horse. Short or long sleeves, closed collars for competition or more relaxed for everyday sessions, made from breathable and stretchy technical fabrics.
Elegant on the track, at a reduced price.
Competition shirt: white, fitted, closed collar
The competition shirt is recognised by its white or very light colour and its closed collar, designed to accommodate a breastplate or tie depending on the discipline. Under the jacket, it must remain perfectly neat: the Equiline Gelsa, from the Italian brand, the Horse Pilot Aeris or the Boss Equestrian Emma adopt a fitted cut that doesn’t bunch at the waist. The collar often fastens with snap buttons, which are quicker to handle with gloves than classic buttons. The Harry's Horse Venice, from the Dutch brand, and the Catago Nice offer the same competition look, with finishes designed to last through a whole day of competition.

Training shirts: colours and everyday comfort
At the stable or the club, the training shirt takes on more freedom: colours, open collars, and more fashionable details. The QHP Vaila, from the Dutch brand, comes in both short-sleeved and long-sleeved versions. The Vestrum Gemini, Markab, and Biarritz, from the Italian brand, focus on fit with stretch fabrics. Kingsland, a Norwegian brand, offers technical shirts like the Mandy and the Molly that transition from the arena to a leisurely ride. The Covalliero, in long sleeves, and the Tommy Hilfiger Equestrian complete this selection, suitable for group lessons as well as working with one’s own horse.
Short or long sleeves depending on the weather
Short sleeves, like the Romfh competition shirt from the American brand, keep you cool during summer events, while the jacket covers the arms in the ring. Long sleeves, like the Tommy Hilfiger Equestrian Avon or the Vestrum Markab, protect from sun, insect bites, and reins chafing on the forearm. The finest and most ventilated fabrics remain comfortable even in high heat. In winter, a long-sleeved technical shirt serves as a breathable base layer: it wicks away sweat from work and prevents you from getting cold once the session is over.
Feminine fit and care for technical fabrics
A women’s equestrian shirt features a fitted cut, tapered at the waist, with enough ease at the bust and shoulders to reach towards the horse's mouth. It should be long enough to stay tucked in during gallops and when landing jumps. Stretch fabrics, a blend of polyester and elastane, hug the silhouette without compressing. For care, button up, machine wash at thirty degrees, without fabric softener that would clog the breathable fibres, and dry on a hanger. White models should be washed separately. The Black Friday allows you to quickly update your competition and training wardrobe.
Frequently Asked Questions
Shirt or blouse for riding: what’s the difference?
No difference in essence: blouse refers to a fitted women's cut shirt, often finer. In equestrianism, the two terms encompass the same technical models, for competition or training, designed for the seated position.
Can you compete without a jacket in high heat?
In very hot weather, organisers may allow lighter attire, without a jacket. The competition shirt must then be white or light, clean, and neatly tucked in, which justifies the choice of a well-cut model.
What riding shirt is best for a busty rider?
Opt for a stretchy fabric and a closure with closely spaced snap buttons, which do not gape between buttons. A fitted cut at the waist but generous at the bust prevents the shirt from pulling while riding.
How many shirts should you have for a season of competitions?
Two competition shirts allow you to always have one clean, especially during two-day events. Add one or two training shirts, in more colourful styles, for sessions during the week and clinics.
Do technical shirts need ironing?
Rarely: polyester and elastane fabrics crease little and go back to shape when drying on a hanger. If necessary, a warm iron is sufficient; too high a temperature can cause synthetic fibres to shine or melt.
