What do you think of the Equine Couture Ladies Raleigh Show Coat?

It is affordable, and I like how it looks! I need to buy my first show coat (just for schooling shows for now) and I need some advice. I haven’t been able to find many reviews on this coat, so if you have any experience with it please tell me what you think! Pros AND cons would be amazing :slight_smile: Also, should I get the black or the navy? I LOVE the black with safari, but at the moment my trainer has me showing hunters. I would love to do jumpers at some point though, so I need a coat that can go between rings. Opinions?

Can you post a link to it?

The safari collar seems like a big rip off of whichever GPA jacket has with that collar. If this will be your only show coat I would definitely go for black or navy without a colored collar. You can wear anything in jumpers, so I’d get a coat that you look sharp in for hunters.

What is a safari collar? The coat I’m looking at has a plain collar?

The OP says " I LOVE the black with safari". I’m looking at this link which shows the safari options.

Ah, I was thinking like leopard or cheetah print. :lol:

I got it for my daughter and hated it, fit terribly and low quality, returned it promptly

I have it and love it - it fits me perfect, and looks really nice on. Washes great, too! And it’s stretchy, so super comfy to ride in.

Have it and love it. Had to have sleeves shortened, but that was all.

Is it fashionable to have a suede collar in the rated hunter ring? I would hesitate to have a different material like that on my collar.
