Ariat Women's Outer Banks Waterproof Jacket with Removable Hood

The Ariat Women's Outer Banks Waterproof Jacket is a technical riding jacket engineered specifically for equestrians who require reliable protection from the elements. Its primary function is to keep the wearer dry and comfortable during long hours in the saddle, regardless of unpredictable weather conditions. The design addresses the unique needs of riders, combining practical features with durable, high-performance materials. Constructed with DRYShield™ waterproof and breathable technology, the jacket effectively repels rain while allowing moisture vapour from the body to escape, preventing that clammy feeling. An EcoDry™ finish enhances water repellency, and Cool Climate Insulation™ provides lightweight warmth. The defining equestrian feature is the inclusion of saddle vents, which are strategically placed to prevent fabric from bunching up when seated on a horse, ensuring a comfortable and unrestricted riding position. Additional practical elements include a two-way front zip closure, zippered hand and chest pockets for secure storage, and a convenient internal zip pocket for valuables. This jacket is ideally suited for riders of all disciplines who spend extended periods outdoors. The removable hood adds significant versatility, designed to fit comfortably over riding helmets and easily detached when not needed, making it a practical choice for year-round use. From training sessions and hacking out to attending competitions or simply performing stable duties, the Outer Banks Jacket provides a functional layer that prioritises both performance and comfort in a demanding environment.
