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.

Musto technological is particularly effective because it was first designed for use by sailors. The founder of the company, Keith Musto was an avid sailor who quickly became tired of being cold and wet every time he went out on the water. Keith thought that it must be possible to develop a range of wind and water resistant clothing that would make outdoor sports more comfortable. Eventually he went on to found his own company and his lines of riding and sailing clothes are now world famous.

The company has teamed up with Olympic rider Zara Phillips to produce a wonderful range of riding coats and gilets. These provide the opportunity for layering so that one jacket can be used for all seasons. Simply adding an extra layer underneath in the very coldest weather adds warmth but not bulk. It is still easy to ride even in the depths of winter.

The AP 176 Country top is a fast drying and stretchable liner layer that wicks moisture away from the body. It is the perfect lightweight jacket for indoor riding or the warmer spring days outside. It is made from ninety percent polyester and ten percent spandex. This makes it very easy to wash and dry, but with enough movement to be comfortable to wear all day long.

One of the most innovative features of the range is the ZP 176 technology. This incorporates many special features such as breathable fabrics that actually draw moisture away from the rider. This is a great feature that is especially useful for those who are training hard for competition.

The Warm Up Jacket is made with four way stretch fabric, making it comfortable to wear all day. Trainers love the fact that they can ride, teach and work around the yard all day in this jacket and be perfectly warm and cozy. Its water proof outer layer makes it perfect for winter hacks as well as time spent outdoors checking fences or walking the dogs.

Buying a Musto riding coat is easy. Simply log on to the company site and use the store locator button to find the nearest retail outlet. Alternatively jackets can be ordered on line and shipped right away. It is always worth checking on special offers and free shipping deals.
