Great Value Musto Zara Phillips

By Kenya Campos


Sportsmen and women all over the globe have trusted the Musto brand for the past fifty years. It was originally developed for sailors who wanted to enjoy their sport and stay dry. Riders feel the same way, they need to spend a lot of time outdoors in all weathers and need clothes that are up to the challenge.

Traditional riding clothes were bulky and difficult to keep clean. Many had to be specially washed and dried, which made them very impractical. There was a huge gap in the market for well designed and functional clothes, that were also stylish and fun to wear. The Musto Zara Phillips brand has changed all that. Now a top ranked rider has lent not only her name, but also her expertise to the world of fashionable riding gear.

Growing up in the royal family Phillips has been around horses since she was a small child. Both her parents were champion riders with highly successful careers in their own right. She has gone on to emulate their achievements and was the world eventing champion in 2006, as well as being voted British Sports Personality of the Year.

Despite the glamorous image of equestrian sports the reality is that a lot of hard work is involved. Horses have to be cared for, exercised and shown in all kinds of weather. Having the very best clothes not only makes life more comfortable but also helps the riders and grooms to feel stylish in even the worst circumstances.

Many local tack stores carry the ZP 176 line of clothes. They can be a great place to compare and contrast the different features of the items. For example there are jackets that are water proof for foul weather riding and others that are merely shower repellent for spring and fall wear. Getting the right fit is also very important.

The Warm Up jacket is another favorite. It is available in a dark blue or black and sizes eight to eighteen. The roll up hood is a great feature that really helps to keep the rider warm and snug. The outer shell is waterproof, windproof and breathable.

The Soft Shell Jacket is loaded with great features. One of the nicest things about it is the close fit that allows for ease of movement both in and out of the saddle. The elastane cuffs help to keep the rider snug in even the coldest weather. The focus is on comfort and functionality. The wonderful design is flattering and the micro fleece lining is delightfully warm.

For warmer weather the zip front sweater is perfect. It can be worn alone or as an additional layer under a jacket. The one hundred percent polyester fabric is light and easy to care for. It is also water repellent and fast drying. This is an essential feature for outdoor use. Riders often have to spend many hours outside at horse shows and need to stay warm and cozy.
