Hy Equestrian Elevate Rainguard Waterproof Short Coat
Description
Hy Equestrian Elevate Rainguard Waterproof Short Coat
The Hy Equestrian Elevate Rainguard Waterproof Short Coat is a lightly padded, waterproof and windproof riding jacket in a ladies cut, with a Hydrostatic Head rating of 10,000mm and a breathability rating of 10,000g/m2. It is best for riders who want one coat that works for wet yard duties and for riding, thanks to a shorter length and a two-way front zip that opens from the hem in the saddle.
Compared with a full-length waterproof, the shorter cut gives more freedom of movement for mucking out, groundwork and lunging, while the light padding adds warmth for cooler days without the bulk of a heavy winter parka.

How to Use
- Measure around the fullest part of your chest and compare with the size guide, allowing room for the layers you normally wear.
- Layer over a base layer or fleece in cooler weather; the light padding means you rarely need a heavy mid-layer.
- Fasten the two-way zip from the top for yard work, then open it from the hem once mounted so the coat sits comfortably over the thigh.
- Raise the hood in heavy rain, or leave it down when riding in a hat.
- After muddy days, brush off dried dirt and wash according to the care label, with the zip closed and no fabric conditioner.
- Re-proof the outer when water starts to soak in rather than beading away.
