Description
The Cavalleria Toscana American S/S Shirt is a women's competition shirt with short sleeves in technical jersey. It closes at the front with concealed buttons, which keeps the front quiet under a show jacket. You wear it in the ring and during training. Cavalleria Toscana supplies this model in white and in the colour Windward Blue.
About this competition shirt
Cavalleria Toscana describes this model itself as a women's competition shirt in jersey with short sleeves and a button fastening, and calls the fabric breathable. The buttons sit concealed behind a placket facing: you barely see the fastening, and that keeps the front smooth when a jacket goes over it. Technical jersey is stretchy and light, so the shirt gives when you come forward in the saddle.
Short sleeves and the ring. In showjumping the dress code is spelled out most fully: the FEI jumping rules ask for a white collar and a white tie, stock or choker, and permit short sleeves, including with a jacket. For children and pony riders the whole shirt has to be white. If someone rides without a jacket in very warm weather, which the ground jury can decide, the shirt must have sleeves; sleeveless drops out. A shirt with short sleeves like this one therefore stays usable in that case.
Dressage works differently. The international dressage rules prescribe nothing about the shirt itself and ask only for a white or off white stock or tie. The Belgian national rules are stricter: there a white shirt applies, and without a jacket the sleeves have to cover at least the shoulders. Rules differ by federation, by discipline, by level and by country, and they change regularly; check the current rules of your own federation before you enter.
Colour and size. This shirt comes in white and in Windward Blue, a shade of blue from Cavalleria Toscana's colour range. The white model runs from XS to XL, Windward Blue from XS to L. White is the choice for classes where a white shirt is required; Windward Blue is not, and suits training and classes where the shirt body is free. Bear in mind that white stays sensitive to yard marks and make-up at the collar.
What Cavalleria Toscana does not state. For this item the manufacturer's product page gives no fibre composition, no fabric weight, no country of manufacture and no washing instructions.
Key benefits
- Short sleeves, so less fabric around the arms on warm show days
- The concealed button fastening keeps the front quiet under a show jacket
- Technical jersey gives with the movement of arm and back
- Described as breathable by Cavalleria Toscana
- White for the ring, Windward Blue for training and open classes
- Sizes XS to XL, with the Italian size reference in the size name
When to choose this product
Choose the American S/S when you want a short sleeve shirt with a tidy, invisible fastening and you ride mainly in showjumping or in training. If you want the same Cavalleria Toscana basis in a different colour palette, the American competition shirt is the alternative within our range; that model comes in a different colour range. If you want a shirt with a worked bib front for a formal dressage test, the Heat Sealed Bib competition shirt suits better. And if you ride in a class where a white shirt is required, take the white version and not Windward Blue.
Fit
Cavalleria Toscana works with Italian sizing: the size name always shows the Italian size next to the European one, such as M (EU38 - IT42). The cut follows the body, which is what you want under a show jacket but also means the size comes out rather small than roomy. If you are between two sizes, or want to wear a layer under the shirt, take the larger one. The available sizes run from XS to XL.

Expert advice
Wear this shirt in the ring under your show jacket and keep the collar tidy: in showjumping a white collar is the requirement the jury looks at first. Take a second shirt along on a show day, because white catches stains quickly. Combine it with a white stock or tie when your discipline asks for one. For training it also works on its own, without a jacket. Anyone who washes the shirt often turns it inside out and picks a mild programme at low temperature; Cavalleria Toscana itself publishes no washing instructions for this item, so the label in the shirt remains the guide.
Use & care
Pull the shirt over your head or open the row of concealed buttons fully; do not force the placket facing. Cavalleria Toscana gives no washing instructions for this item on its product page, so follow the label in the shirt. For technical jersey, practice says: wash inside out, mild programme, low temperature, no bleach and no tumble dryer. After washing, dry the shirt on a hanger, and you will keep the collar in shape.
