Cavalleria Toscana American Show Shirt Women

Take the white one as your competition shirt and a coloured one for training, and you will spare the white. Charcoal is the quietest of the three and the least sensitive to sand and yard marks; Violet Ice is lighter and needs a little more care. With a coloured shirt, always check whether the class you start in prescribes a white shirt. Because the manufacturer publishes no washing instructions, you follow the label in the shirt: for technical jersey that means in practice a mild programme at low temperature and no tumble dryer.

Choose this shirt when you want colour in your training wardrobe and are still after a competition shirt with a button fastening. If you want the same model but with a concealed fastening and in a different colour range, the American S/S in our range is the direct counterpart. If you mainly ride formal dressage tests and want a shirt with a worked bib front, look at the Heat Sealed Bib competition shirt. And if you start with the children or on a pony in showjumping, take the white version, because the whole shirt has to be white there.

Unbutton the shirt fully before you put it on, which keeps the button fastening in shape. Cavalleria Toscana gives no washing instructions for this item, so the label in the shirt decides. For technical jersey that usually means: wash inside out on a mild programme at low temperature, no bleach, no tumble dryer and iron without steam. Let the shirt dry on a hanger, and the collar stays straight.

What is this shirt made of?

Cavalleria Toscana documents no fibre composition for article CAD098-JF024. The fabric is described as technical jersey. The label in the shirt gives the composition.

Which colours are there and in which sizes?

White in XS, S, L and XL; Violet Ice in XS, S and M; Charcoal in XS, M and L.

Can I wear a coloured shirt in the competition ring?

That depends on your class. In showjumping the FEI rules ask for a white collar and a white tie, and for children and pony riders the whole shirt has to be white. At Belgian national level a white shirt applies in dressage. Check the rules of your federation.

Does this shirt have long or short sleeves?

The manufacturer does not specify the sleeve length of this version on a product page of its own. It is therefore not stated.

How do I care for it?

Follow the label in the shirt. The manufacturer publishes no washing instructions for this item.

How does the size come out?

Cavalleria Toscana uses Italian sizing with a close-fitting cut. If in doubt, take the larger size.

What is the difference from the American S/S in this range?

The same model base, a different fabric version. The American S/S has short sleeves, a concealed button fastening and its own colour range; this shirt comes in white, Violet Ice and Charcoal.
