Riding Jackets
Equestrian Competition Jackets.
These are formal riding jackets worn during competition.
The three main types are tail coat, hacking jacket and showing jacket.
- Tailcoat - worn for top level dressage and should be worn with a top hat, white stock, stock pin, waistcoat, long black boots, shirt, white or cream jodhpurs, spurs and gloves.
- Hacking Jacket - can be worn for riding dressage and jumping. The dress guidelines of each sport will dictate what color you should wear; for example in eventing a tweed jacket is acceptable for intro to novice levels, and a black or blue jacket is expected for intermediate and above, in the UK.
