Why A Musto Riding Coat Keeps You Dry

By Eula Nichols


There are many reasons why buying a Musto riding coat is an excellent idea. Outstanding value for money and a stylish product are probably the top of the list. Riders can be sure they will stay warm, dry and comfortable whilst still looking good. The coats have the advantage of being light weight and do not bulk up like many traditional riding clothes.

The ZP 176 line is famous for its outstanding ability to keep riders comfortable and dry. The outer layer is specially designed to wick moisture away from the body. This is done by adding a layer of breathable fabric that absorbs the moisture and then forces it out through a technologically advanced outer layer of material. This outer layer is cleverly constructed to allow dampness to escape, yet keep water out.

The Musto company has a long history of manufacturing high quality outdoor clothing. It was founded in 1964 by Keith Musto, an avid sailor. He was tired of having to spend hours in cold wet clothes and felt that a solution was needed. After a surprising lack of interest from clothing manufacturers, Keith himself set about designing a new line of water proof sailing clothes. These were specially designed with the needs of serious nautical people in mind and the line was quickly adopted by the Olympic team.

Riders face many of the same problems as sailors. They have to be outside in all weathers, caring for their animals as well as riding. Having the right kind of clothing makes all the difference between staying warm and comfortable or being wet and cold. Investing in a light weight but water proof Musto jacket is the perfect way to keep dry all winter long.

The ZP 176 line is a top seller with equestrians. It features a number of innovative technologies to help keep the rider warm and dry. All seams are taped to ensure a completely waterproof jacket. The moisture control layer actually works by drawing the dampness away from the riders body and forcing it out through the fabric. This helps a hard working rider stay warm, but dry. Even when they are riding indoors it is easy to work up a sweat and the breathable fabric is a huge bonus.

For more serious cold weather riding the Warm Up Jacket is a great buy. Retailing at around one hundred and fifty pounds it is the perfect way to stay warm and dry. The new technology incorporates specially taped seams to ensure a completely water proof fit. The breathable inner layers draw moisture away from the rider, to prevent chills and dampness.

The versatile and sporty Grooms Jacket is a great buy. It is practical enough to be the only jacket most people need. It is shower proof, breathable and wind resistant. The strong outer shell will last for years and the full zipper front makes it easy to put on and off. The navy blue color works well for both men and women. Sizes are available from eight to eighteen.

The company web site makes it easy to locate a local retail outlet. Alternatively it is very easy to order a Musto riding coat on line. There is a free click and collect option or the more traditional home delivery service. International delivery is also available for those living or working abroad.
