ELT Comfort Heated Vest for Riders & Yard Work
Description
ELT Comfort Heated Vest - Core Warmth for Cold Yard Days
The ELT Comfort Heated Vest is a sleeveless heated gilet designed for riders, grooms and yard staff working outdoors in cold weather. It warms the core through the chest and back while leaving the arms and shoulders completely free for riding, tacking up and handling horses.
It is best for anyone facing early winter starts, long turnout rounds or hours standing ringside, and it layers easily over a base layer or under a waterproof riding coat.

How to Use
- Choose your size using standard rider clothing measurements, allowing extra room if you layer heavily underneath.
- Put on a base layer or thin fleece first, then fasten the vest over the top.
- Connect and switch on the heating before heading out, so the panels are warm by the time you reach the yard.
- Add a waterproof coat over the top in wet weather - the slim gilet shape sits neatly underneath.
- Switch off and disconnect the power source when you finish, and store the vest dry and loosely folded.

FAQ
Who is the ELT Comfort Heated Vest best for?
It suits riders, grooms, livery yard staff and instructors who spend long hours outdoors in winter and want core warmth without bulky sleeves getting in the way.
Can I wear it while riding?
Yes. The sleeveless cut leaves the arms and shoulders free, so it does not restrict rein contact or shoulder movement the way a heavy coat can.
What size should I order?
Order your usual rider clothing size for a close fit. If you regularly wear a thick fleece or several base layers underneath, go up one size so the fastening sits flat across the chest.
Can I wear it under a coat?
Yes. The slim gilet shape is designed to layer, so it sits comfortably under a waterproof riding jacket in wet weather.
How do I clean it?
Always disconnect and remove the power source first, then follow the instructions printed on the garment care label. Keep cables away from sharp tack hooks when storing.
