Women's Riding Coat – Warm and Weatherproof Through Winter
A good women's riding coat is your most important companion in the saddle during winter. When the wind whistles across the arena and the breath of you and your horse hangs in the air, you want one thing: to stay warm without feeling like you're wrapped in a sleeping bag. That's exactly what these coats are made for – warm, weatherproof, and with cuts that truly consider riding.
What Makes a Women's Riding Coat for Winter
A normal winter coat quickly looks out of place on a ride. Too short, too tight, it bunches up at the back in the saddle. A true women's riding coat is often long and has an opening or a back slit. This allows you to drape the coat warmly over your thighs while in the saddle – no more cold wind on your legs.
In addition, there are materials that can withstand a lot: water-repellent or windproof outer fabrics, a warming thermal or fleece lining, and often reflectors for visibility during the darker months. Despite all this, it should still be breathable so you don't break a sweat while grooming or lunging.
Long, Warm, and Cut for Riding
The big difference is in the details. A long women's riding coat extends well over the hips, protecting your lower back while still allowing you freedom of movement. Practical features like a stand-up collar, adjustable cuffs, or a two-way zipper make everyday life in the stable easier. For bitterly cold days, it's best to grab winter riding glovesand warm hats, headbands, and caps– then nothing is guaranteed to get cold.
Here you'll find models from premium brands like E.L.T, Covalliero, BUSSE, Pikeur, Kingsland, and BR – and several more. If you like classic styles, check out the E.L.T Winter Collection. Unsure about size or cut? Just chat with us, we'll be happy to advise you.

Browse the selection and find the coat that suits you and your everyday riding.
Why does a riding coat have a slit in the back?
The slit or opening at the back ensures that the long women's riding coat doesn't pull in the saddle. You can lay the sides over your thighs, keeping you nice and warm even on long treks through the countryside.
Which riding coat is truly waterproof?
Look for terms like water-repellent, windproof, or a membrane with a water column rating. Models with sealed seams will keep you dry even in prolonged rain. If you have questions about a specific coat, we'll be happy to help you in the chat.
What do I wear under my riding coat in winter?
The layering principle works best: a breathable long-sleeved shirt, a fleece or sweatshirt over it, and the coat on top. This allows you to regulate warmth depending on the weather and activity level.
