How To Look Like A Showing Pro!



With spring finally here, we turn our thoughts to the show ring, and what better way to inspire you than with the Equetech showing collection and some show style tips to have you looking like a showing pro!

 

The Equetech collection is designed to give a professional finish. Our collection of accessories and clothing suits all tastes and budgets, from tweeds that will transform tatty into terrific to ties and matching scrunchies that will 'tie' in your colour scheme for a fresh new look.

 


Tweed Or Two
 

Our Tweed jackets are always popular, and every season, we introduce an exciting new tweed. This season, it's the Thornborough Deluxe Tweed Range. Available in ladies, gents and children's sizing, this tweed is beautifully flattering on all skin types and works perfectly with all coat colours, thanks to its herringbone backdrop to over checks in light blue and brown. Offering two ladies' styles with an optional navy velvet collar and pocket detail, this stunning jacket is super flattering and goes up to a size 50. Designed to make you look and feel stylish and elegant.

 

Equetech Top Tip:

Your jacket will last you many years, so look after it! Hang it up after use, follow the care instructions and store it in a protective garment bag to protect against moths, mildew and dampness.
 


 

Show Off



The Equetech Stretch Lace Show Shirt is a traditional-looking showing shirt with a crisp button-down collar yet with a stretch fabric that allows for freedom of movement and a pretty reveal of lace panelling to the back of the shirt when your jacket is removed after your class. For a quick-drying show shirt with function, our Waffle Stretch Show Shirt is ideal with its' classic good looks coupled with freedom of movement and is available in soft buttercup and crisp white. 

 

Equetech Top Tip:

Choose a shirt with a crisp, smart collar to showcase your choice of tie. Nothing looks worse than a collar that is too big around the neck, so invest in a shirt that fits and presents the right image.
 


Get A Grip!



There's a new generation of riding breeches on the showing circuit that perform as good as they look; the Equetech Regency Breeches. These super stylish and flattering breeches in beige are designed for the elegant show rider, complete with silicone grip knee. And for those who love a full seat, our Grip Seat Breeches are your 'go to' and are available in buttermilk and beige. Our Prima Range comes in both junior and ladies sizing for jodhpur fans and is comfortable classic cut jodhpurs at a competitive price point. And for tiny riders, our Dinky Deluxe Jodhpurs in buttermilk are champion winners!

 

Equetech Top Tip:

Professional show riders love our collection of showing breeches for their classic good looks combined with contemporary styling and innovative fabric technology. Keep your white breeches for dressage and showjumping arena, and choose buttermilk or beige for the classic showing look.
 


 

Matchy Matchy



Working on a tight budget? Get the designer look with our matching tie and scrunchies from classic navy and hunter green to gorgeous sky blue and fuchsia pink. A little colour can pull your whole look together and elevate a tired outfit into something smart and stylish! Don't forget our Zipper Ties and matching hair scrunchies, too - perfect touches for a smart finish or quick change between classes and horses!

 

Equetech Top Tip:

You can pull together your entire look by picking a colour from your tweed plaid and choosing a tie and scrunchie in the same tonal colour. If you plan to compete in hack, riding horse or breed classes, complete the picture with a browband that reflects your chosen colour scheme - very smart!

 

It's The Little Things!



Don't forget the little things! Stylish Tiepins, butter-soft Leather Show Gloves, colour coordinated Number Elastic, Show Hair Nets or Fox Head Button Magnetic Number Holders all give you that winning professional look.

 

Equetech Top Tip:

If you can't afford to replace your show clothing or just want to update your look on a budget, then accessories are the way to go! Revamping your worn and tired gloves or replacing those tired old hairnets can instantly update your look.
