Oh my good god yet another cold snap and its set to continue

I badly need a new casual jacket but needs to be suitable for riding so cant be restrictive & MUST be super warm. Oh and nothing mad expensive:)

Ski jacket! Colemans in sandyford do them and theyre reasonable -around 60 euro or so i think - i have an eider one from snow and rock i use for skiing but to be honest its 95% horses and 5% skiing there is actually nothing to compete with them for heat, and also another aspect i love about them is they have zips on the sides and arms designed to cool you down; so im nice and cosy for pottering around the yard and then i can cool down by opening them if i get too warm riding without having to take the jacket off!

These are great jackets,I have two.
Completely waterproof and warm.Will fit a back protector under it if needed.I wear mine all the time!!
You can get them in adult sizes in their store.
I normally buy a new one at the Rds each year as they do be only €20.But you can't go wrong with it.
Comes in baby blueor pink or navy

I love the Corrib jackets from Horseware. I've got 2 of them, one of which I've had since about 2008 and it's only just starting to get a little 'tired' (and it's only been worn around the yard, so lots of hard wear and tear at least 3-4 days a week). The last one I got was at the RDS 3 years ago, and it's still perfect. The jackets have a shell outside and a lovely fleece lining to keep you nice and warm.

Not sure how well that's going to work as I could only get the jackets up on a slideshow.

I love musto! Had my jackets for about 6 years now they've been washed a lot and they are still the same colour and shape. Really warm and cosy too!

You can get them in the Kildare Village outlet shop for pretty reasonable prices now. I got a body warmer in there for 30 a few months back.

I have one of the homestead ones above and find it rides up so i end up with a chill on my back, also mine isnt completely waterproof anymore, i end up soaked if im out in the rain!

Me too. It's grand and warm for doing bits around the yard but when I ride it moves up and pushes my back protector out of place.

I'm thinking of getting this one when funds allow:

Well I can say I've never had a problem with mine(Homestead one) I do be as dry as a bone after wearing it no matter snow or rain.They wash well also I have found (Well in my case) Wear them all the time-riding and just around the yard
