Horseware Unisex Waterproof Overtrousers

These overtrousers are a layer over your normal outfit, not a replacement for it. Bear that in mind when choosing your size: there has to be room left for the breeches or work trousers underneath. At the moment only size XL (men's 52) is available.

Underneath the trousers you simply wear your usual clothing. In cold weather, combine the overtrousers with a warm base layer; the trousers themselves are intended as protection against water and wind, not as an insulating layer.

The product information gives no specific care instructions. Follow the care label in the trousers, especially since this is a coated material. After use, hang the trousers open so they can dry on the inside, and rinse off heavy mud first.

These trousers are intended for riders and yard staff who stay outside in the rain: training in pouring rain, caring for and moving horses, or getting through a long competition day when the weather turns against you. They are unisex and fit over most breeches.

For riding itself in dry weather they are of no use: there is no grip in them and they are not breeches. In that case you take a real pair of breeches from the range, with a full silicone seat (Full Grip) or with silicone knee patches (Knee Grip), depending on your discipline. Bear in mind as well that these overtrousers are offered in white, which makes them less easy to keep clean in the mud than a dark yard outfit.

Pull the overtrousers on over your normal clothing when it rains or blows. The pocket access lets you reach the pockets of the clothing underneath without taking the trousers off. In cold weather, wear a warm layer underneath: the overtrousers protect against water and wind but do not insulate.

No specific washing instruction is given, so follow the care label, especially with this coated material. Rinse off heavy mud first and, after use, hang the trousers open so they dry on the inside.

Which size do I take?
These overtrousers are offered in size XL (men's 52). Because you wear them over your normal clothing, the fit is deliberately roomy.

How do I wash these overtrousers?
The product information gives no specific washing instruction. Follow the care label in the trousers and rinse mud off first.

Are these trousers really waterproof?
Yes. The micropolyester has a durable Teflon coating and the seams are fully taped, so no water comes in along the stitching either.

Can I wear them over my breeches?
That is what they are made for. The roomy unisex fit lets you pull the trousers easily over breeches or a yard outfit.

Can I reach my pockets without taking the trousers off?
Yes, the overtrousers have pocket access to the clothing underneath.

Are these riding breeches?
No. They are overtrousers without grip, intended as a protective layer in wet weather. For the saddle in dry weather you take a pair of breeches.

Are these trousers suitable for competition?
They are usable on a competition day in bad weather, for instance during the warm-up or between classes. They are not competition breeches.

Who are these trousers intended for?
For riders and yard staff, regardless of gender: the model is unisex.
