Cavalleria Toscana Women's GP Show Jacket

Mint combines most quietly with white breeches and a white competition shirt. Black leather gives a crisp, modern contrast; brown leather softens the whole. Preferably wear a light top under the jacket, because a dark colour shows up more strongly beneath a pastel.

No washing instruction is known for this jacket. Follow the care label inside it, and be extra careful with stains: a light shade needs attention sooner than black. Brush the Alcantara collar down dry rather than scrubbing it, and after a wet day hang the jacket on a coat hanger until it is completely dry.

This version suits the rider who starts in spring and summer and likes to give her competition look a personal accent. The mint colour works well in bright daylight and on light-coloured sand surfaces. In dressage, show jumping and eventing the jacket is usable at the levels where an ordinary show jacket is worn.

If you want a jacket that stays immaculate on dark, wet autumn days as well, a black or navy version from our Cavalleria Toscana range is more practical. And if you are after a front that is guaranteed to stay flat while riding, look at the model with a zip behind the row of buttons in our range instead.

You close the jacket with the classic button fastening at the front; the two front pockets hold small items. Mint combines most quietly with white breeches and a white competition shirt. Preferably wear a light top underneath, because a dark colour shows up beneath a pastel.

No washing instruction is known, so follow the care label inside and deal with stains quickly. Brush the Alcantara collar down dry rather than scrubbing it, and after a wet day hang the jacket on a coat hanger until it is completely dry.

How does this show jacket fit?
It is a tailored women's cut that sits close across chest and waist, and it runs true to the stated EU and IT sizes: S (EU36 - IT40) and M (EU38 - IT42). If you are hesitating between two sizes, get in touch before you order.

Can I wear this jacket over a body protector or airbag vest?
That is not specified for this model, and the cut is tailored. If you ride with a body protector or airbag vest, get in touch before you choose a size.

Does this jacket come in other sizes or colours?
What we stock as standard is listed under the technical specifications: Mint in S and M. Other sizes or colours can be ordered in on request.

How do I look after a jacket in a light colour?
Follow the care label inside the jacket and treat stains quickly. Hang the jacket on a coat hanger rather than storing it folded, and brush the Alcantara collar down dry.

What does four-way stretch mean?
That the fabric gives both lengthways and crossways. The jacket therefore follows your movement when you fold forward or reach out with your arms.

What does the abbreviation GP stand for?
GP is the model name Cavalleria Toscana gives this line. It marks the classically closed version with a button fastening within the range.

Is the jacket suitable for outdoor competitions?
Yes. The jersey is breathable and quick-drying and carries a water-repellent and UV-protective finish, which comes in useful during a day in the outdoor ring.

May I wear a mint-coloured jacket at a competition?
The rules on the colour and cut of competition clothing differ per discipline, per federation and per year. So check the rules currently in force for your discipline and federation before starting in a coloured jacket.
