What should I wear for a horse show?
Do I always need a show jacket?
Not always. Plenty of unaffiliated and summer shows run "jackets optional", in which case a tidy show shirt with a collar is enough. For showing, working hunter and country classes a tweed jacket is the traditional choice, and it is the one piece that instantly lifts an outfit from schooling clothes to show turnout. Rules differ between societies and disciplines, so check the current rulebook for the class you are entering before you buy.
What colour show shirt should I choose?
White is the safe default — it works under every jacket colour and is accepted almost everywhere. A soft yellow or cream reads as traditional in country and showing classes. If you ride in more than one discipline, buy white first and treat colour as a second shirt.
Short sleeves or long sleeves?
Short sleeves are the practical pick in the UK show season. Under a jacket nobody sees your sleeve length, and on a hot day you can strip back to the shirt between classes without looking untidy. Both Cameo Equine shirts in stock here are short-sleeve.
How should competition wear fit?
Show shirts
A show shirt should sit close but never pull across the shoulders or chest when you take up a contact. If the collar gapes when you fasten it, size up — a gaping collar is the first thing a judge notices. Cameo Equine show shirts are sized Small to X-Large.
Tweed show jackets
Try the jacket on over the shirt you will actually compete in. You want to be able to bring both arms forward into a jumping position without the back pulling, and the jacket should sit just over the seat of your breeches when you are in the saddle. Jackets here are in UK dress sizes rather than shirt sizes, so measure your chest over a show shirt before ordering.
What if I am between sizes?
With shirts, go up — you can tuck a slightly generous shirt but you cannot ride comfortably in a tight one. With a jacket, the shoulder line matters most: get the shoulders right and a good alteration can take in the waist. If you are unsure, get in touch and our team will help.
How do I keep competition wear looking sharp?
Wash show shirts on a cool cycle, hang them straight from the machine and they will need very little pressing. Never tumble-dry a technical performance fabric on high heat — it is the quickest way to lose the stretch. Tweed jackets should be brushed down after every show and dry-cleaned only when they genuinely need it; hang on a broad shaped hanger rather than folded in a kit bag. Pack shirts flat on top of everything else in the lorry and you will arrive with far fewer creases.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Cameo Equine competition wear cost?
In this collection Cameo Equine show shirts start at £24.95, and the Cameo Equine Tweed Show Jacket is £99.00. Prices shown on each product page are the ones that apply at checkout.
Which Cameo Equine competition pieces are in stock right now?
Three pieces are available to ship: the Cameo Equine Classic Showshirt (£24.95) in Large / White and X-Large / Yellow, the Premium Cameo Equine Performance Horse Rider Competition Shirt Breathable Fabric (£24.95) in Large / White, and the Cameo Equine Tweed Show Jacket (£99.00) in Size 10 UK, Green Tweed. Availability changes as sizes sell, so the product pages are always the live picture.
Can I wear a tweed jacket for dressage?
Tweed is widely accepted at unaffiliated and lower-level dressage, while higher levels usually expect a plain dark show jacket. Dress rules vary by society and are updated regularly, so always check the current rulebook for your class before you compete.
What size Cameo Equine show shirt should I order?
Cameo Equine show shirts run Small to X-Large. Measure your chest at the fullest point over a thin base layer and check it against the size guide on the product page. If you are between sizes, go up — a shirt that pulls across the shoulders will restrict you the moment you take up a contact.
How do I wash a competition show shirt?
Cool wash, low spin, and hang it up straight away rather than leaving it in the drum. Skip fabric softener on technical performance fabrics — it coats the fibres and reduces breathability. Always follow the care label on the garment itself.
Can I return competition wear if the size is wrong?
Yes. Competition wear from Just Horse Riders comes with our 90-day returns policy, so you can swap a size if it is not right. Keep the item unworn and in its original condition, and get in touch and our team will help arrange the exchange.
