Samshield Competition Jacket Short Frac Jully

A brown short tailcoat calls for an outfit that picks the colour up rather than working against it. Brown or cognac leather, white or light beige breeches and a plain competition shirt from our range give the quietest result. Black leather works, but it hardens the contrast.

The jacket may go in the machine; do follow the care label for temperature and programme, certainly with the crystal details on the cuffs and the back. Turn the jacket inside out and let it dry on a hanger rather than in the tumble dryer.

The Short Frac Jully suits riders in size XS who compete in dressage or show jumping and want a refined, short model. The brown version is a choice for anyone who wants to step away from the standard black or navy picture while staying understated.

If you ride in classes where a full tailcoat is required, you need a proper tailcoat rather than this short model; you will find one in our range as well. If you are after a classic show jacket with a straight-cut panel, the regular women's models are the more logical choice.

You wear the Jully in dressage or show jumping when you want the tailcoat look without long tails in the saddle. The brown shade looks calmest with brown or cognac leather, white or light beige breeches and a plain competition shirt. Do check the rules for your class to see whether a brown jacket is allowed.

The jacket is machine washable; follow the care label for temperature and programme, especially with the Swarovski crystals on the cuffs and at the back. Turn the jacket inside out and hang it to dry, not in the tumble dryer.

How does this show jacket fit?
The Jully is a short, tailored model with a modern cut that follows the female silhouette, true to the stated EU and IT size. This version comes in XS (EU34 - IT38). If you are unsure whether that size fits, get in touch.

Can I wear this tailcoat over a body protector or airbag vest?
Nothing is specified about that for this model. On a short, tailored tailcoat that is a fair question, so contact us beforehand if you ride with a vest.

Is this tailcoat available in other sizes or colours?
What we stock as standard is listed under the technical specifications. Other sizes or colours can be ordered in on request.

What is the difference between a short tailcoat and a regular show jacket?
A short tailcoat has the tailcoat cut with a clear waistline, but a shorter back panel than a full tailcoat. A regular show jacket has a straight-cut panel.

What does tone on tone mean?
That the details are executed in the same colour family as the jacket itself, rather than in a contrasting colour. It gives a quieter picture.

Can this tailcoat go in the washing machine?
Yes, it is machine washable. Follow the care label and turn the jacket inside out because of the crystal details.

What does the EPD certification involve?
It is a documented environmental declaration from the manufacturer about the product. It says something about how it is produced, not about the performance of the jacket.

Am I allowed to compete in this tailcoat?
Colour and cut requirements for competition dress differ by discipline and by federation and can change. With a brown jacket that is certainly worth checking in the rules for your class.
