ELT Dover Waterproof Riding Raincoat with Hood
Description
ELT Dover Raincoat: Waterproof Riding Coat for Wet Yard Days
The ELT Dover Raincoat is a water- and windproof riding coat made from 100% polyester with taped seams, an adjustable drawstring hood and a riding vent at the back. It is designed for riders who need to stay dry both in the saddle and while working around the yard in British weather.
Inside leg straps hold the coat down over your legs when mounted, a built-in ventilation system reduces that clammy waterproof feeling, and reflective details on the back help you be seen in poor light. Best for hacking, schooling, in-hand work, turnout checks and mucking out on wet days.

How to Use
- Check your chest measurement against the size chart and allow room for a base layer or jumper underneath.
- Put the coat on and fasten the front before mounting.
- Adjust the drawstring hood so it sits clear of your peripheral vision, or wear it back if you are in a riding hat.
- Close the Velcro cuffs over your gloves to stop rain running down your arms.
- Once mounted, pass the inside leg straps around each thigh so the coat stays down over your legs.
- Open the ventilation system on milder days, and hang the coat to dry after use rather than storing it damp.

FAQ
Is the ELT Dover Raincoat fully waterproof?
It is described as water- and windproof with taped seams, which means the stitch lines are sealed to stop water seeping through the needle holes.
Can I wear it while riding?
Yes. It has a riding vent at the back so the coat sits over the saddle, and leg straps on the inside that hold the lower coat over your legs for better rain protection in the saddle.
What size should I order?
Measure your chest and compare it with the size chart. Because a raincoat is usually worn over a jumper, base layer or body protector, size up if you layer heavily or fall between two sizes.
What is it made from?
The Dover Raincoat is made from 100% polyester.
Will I overheat in it?
The coat has a built-in ventilation system to help air move through, which reduces the clammy feeling common to waterproof fabrics during active work.
How do I wash and care for it?
Brush off dried mud and hair, close the Velcro cuffs before washing so they do not snag, and follow the care label. Avoid fabric softener as it can affect water repellency, and hang the coat to dry.
