Hy Equestrian Elevate Evolution Quilted Gilet
The Hy Equestrian Elevate Evolution Quilted Gilet is a lightweight sleeveless body warmer with quilted front and back panels and stretchy softshell side panels. It is designed for riders who want a warm, breathable layering piece for schooling, hacking, yard duties and every day wear.
It is best for anyone who finds a full coat too bulky in the saddle but still wants core warmth. The quilted panels trap heat across the chest and back, while the softshell sides keep the fit streamlined and allow free movement through the shoulders and ribs.

- Put on a base layer or long-sleeve top first, then add the gilet over the top.
- Fasten the front zip fully for maximum warmth, or leave it part-open to regulate temperature while working.
- Check that you can move your arms freely and reach forward in the saddle before riding.
- After wear, hang the gilet to air, then wash at a low temperature following the care label.
FAQ
Is the Hy Equestrian Elevate Evolution Gilet true to size?
Yes, it is generally true to size as a layering piece. If you prefer a roomier fit or want to wear it over thicker sweatshirts, choose the next size up. The softshell side panels give some stretch through the body.
Can I ride in this gilet?
Yes. The sleeveless cut and flexible softshell side panels allow free movement through the shoulders and arms, so it works well for schooling and hacking as well as yard work.
What can I wear underneath it?
It layers easily over base layers, polo shirts, long-sleeve tops and sweatshirts, which makes it useful across changing seasons.
Is it warm enough for winter?
It is a lightweight quilted gilet rather than a heavy winter coat, so it is best used as a layer over a base layer or mid-layer in colder weather, or on its own in milder conditions.
How should I wash it?
Always follow the care label on the garment. Fasten the zip, wash cool with similar colours, avoid fabric conditioner and harsh detergents, and dry naturally away from direct heat.
What is the rose gold detailing?
The gilet features rose gold zip finishes and branded accents, giving a contemporary look that suits both riding wear and casual outfits.
