Equestrian Work Wear – Functional workwear for yard work

Day-to-day life at the yard brings many challenges and a wide range of tasks: as well as turning the horses in and out, you also have to muck out the stables, poo-pick the paddocks and fields, care for the horses‘ hooves, and carry out repairs in and around the yard. It is simply essential that your workwear is functional, durable and practical. Only then can you carry out your tasks effectively and avoid preventable, minor injuries.

Functional workwear for the yard must therefore, first and foremost, meet the following requirements:

• High-quality materials for durability, longevity, warmth in winter and optimal moisture-wicking, as well as odour-resistant properties in summer
• Fit for comfort with every movement – even if you have to make an unexpected sudden movement, your workwear must not restrict you
• Functionality through practical features such as the number and placement of pockets, pre-shaped knee areas, and silent-opening magnetic pockets

Workwear doesn’t have to be baggy or unstylish, as proven by the new Equestrian Work Wear collection for women, which combines workplace safety with sporty, lifestyle fashion. When paired with sturdy yard and work boots featuring certified steel toe caps, this workwear will ensure you are fully protected and well equipped.

EQUESTRIAN WORK WEAR Jackets

Does the wind whistle past your ears while you’re poo-picking? Is the stable roof in need of repair, and would you benefit from a clever pocket system to keep your tools and equipment close at hand? Equestrian Work Wear’s jackets offer all the features you need for yard work in all weathers and for jobs big and small around the yard.

EQUESTRIAN WORK WEAR Outdoor Hooded Winter Jacket

It’s winter, but the work in the yard still needs doing. The Outdoor Hooded Winter Jacket from EWW is not only a warm winter jacket, but also a breathable, waterproof rain jacket with a waterproof rating of up to 10,000 mm. It’s perfect for the seasoned outdoorsman. The soft fleece lining of the two large side pockets will keep your fingers warm when you need a quick break from working in the cold.

The EWW Outdoor Hooded Winter Jacket also looks great thanks to its trendy colour-blocking design.

EQUESTRIAN WORK WEAR Outdoor Gilets

If a jacket is too warm for you, Equestrian Work Wear offers outdoor gilets for a range of weather conditions.

In the cold autumn and winter, when the odd shower might catch you off guard, the Equestrian Work Wear Outdoor Gilet offers you complete protection against wind and rain. Thanks to its waterproof and windproof properties, you’re also well protected from cold draughts, even if you work up a sweat. The padding in the EWW Outdoor Gilet also keeps you comfortably warm. To ensure your neck is fully protected, you can adjust the collar height to suit you using an elasticated drawstring.

And as a base layer, the Functional Turtleneck Shirt or the Functional Ribbed Shirt Cosy from Equestrian Work Wear are ideal.

The Functional Outdoor Gilet is ideal for yard work and outdoor activities when the weather is warmer and consistent. As well as its water- and dirt-repellent properties, the EWW Functional Outdoor Gilet is particularly stretchy and adapts perfectly to your every movement. This means you can swing a pitchfork, hammer or jump pole with ease.

The self-closing magnetic pockets prevent your contents from falling out should you ever forget to close them. What’s more, the magnetic pockets open and close silently, making them highly recommended for spooky horses that tend to get startled when hook and loop fastener pockets are opened.

A particular highlight is the large back pockets on the left and right, which can hold fairly large items. This means that it won’t dig into your stomach when you crouch or bend down, leaving your hands free.

The EWW Functional Outdoor Gilet can be perfectly combined with the Functional Long Sleeve Shirt Breeze during the autumn transitional period.

EQUESTRIAN WORK WEAR Functional Long Sleeve Shirt Breeze

Working at the yard can quickly make you break a sweat. Not only can your back get uncomfortably chilly, but you could also catch a cold. With its breathable and quick-drying properties, the EWW Functional Long Sleeve Shirt Breeze keeps you dry and warm thanks to its brushed lining. And Equestrian Work Wear wouldn’t be workwear if our long-sleeved shirt didn’t also feature at least one pocket – namely a large kangaroo pocket at the front.

Work trousers for the yard from EQUESTRIAN WORK WEAR

High-quality work trousers are an absolute must for working safely! Work trousers from Equestrian Work Wear are robust and versatile.

Take, for example, the All-Season Functional Outdoor Trousers. Thanks to the reinforced canvas material on the seat, thighs and lower legs, they are particularly durable and thus also protect your legs from superficial abrasions, for instance when slipping with a hoof rasp.

The pre-shaped knee area makes kneeling on hard ground more comfortable, as your knees are better protected and the trousers slip less.

And, of course, Work Trousers from EWW are water, wind and dirt-repellent thanks to the eco-friendly BIONIC-FINISH® waterproofing.

For daily yard work, you naturally need plenty of space for hoof picks, your mobile phone, hoof knives and other tools. There is ample room for these in the six pockets in total, including one large zipped pocket and one pocket with a silent magnetic fastening.

If you prefer something light and stretchy, you’ll love these All-Season Stretch Outdoor Trousers from EWW. They’re simply perfect for both working at the yard and going for a leisurely hack. The stretchy outer fabric adapts to your every movement, and the reinforced material protects your knees should you need to kneel down whilst working.

Cold legs in winter? Equestrian Work Wear also offers warm, lined Winter Work Trousers. They’re also incredibly practical, featuring innovative pockets with magnetic fastenings, and are extremely comfortable thanks to their perfect fit, elasticated panels and pre-shaped knee areas.

Caring for workwear

If you really get stuck in at the stable, you won’t stay clean for long. Regular but proper care ensures your workwear remains in good condition. Incorrect care can, in particular, cause the integrated waterproofing of your workwear to wear off. Therefore, always follow the washing instructions sewn into the garments. If you wish to renew the waterproofing, we have suitable textile care products available in our online shop for functional clothing. You can find further tips on textile care in our guide to textile care.
