Product Information
Full details
The E.L.T Lotta Riding Skirt is designed for adult equestrians who require a practical, weather-resistant outer layer while in the saddle. It offers excellent protection from the elements with its water-repellent finish and secure, adjustable fit, though users should ensure they choose the correct material variant, as thermal fleece options are available for colder conditions compared to the standard polyester model.

FAQs
Is this skirt warm enough for winter?
The standard polyester model is lightweight and water-repellent. If you require extra warmth, look for the E.L.T Lotta Thermal Riding Skirt variant which features a fleece lining.
Can I wear this over breeches?
Yes, it is designed to be worn over your standard riding breeches as a protective outer layer.
How do I know which size to pick?
This variant is designed for a UK size 12. Please refer to your standard clothing size, keeping in mind the adjustable width system allows for minor fit variations.
Is the reflective material effective in total darkness?
The reflective prints are designed to be highly visible when hit by a direct light source, such as car headlights, but they are not a substitute for active lighting in complete darkness.
How should I clean the skirt?
Follow the garment's wash tag. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners to ensure the water-repellent finish remains intact.
Troubleshooting
Skirt shifts while riding
Ensure the internal leg loops are securely fastened around your thighs using the touch tape fasteners.
Water begins to soak through
The water-repellent finish may be wearing off. Wash the item and consider applying a dedicated DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray.
Zip feels stiff
Clear any debris or grit from the zipper teeth and ensure the fabric is not caught in the track during operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your skirt, simply wrap it around your waist and secure the front zip. Use the side touch tape fasteners to adjust the width until the fit is snug yet comfortable. To activate the riding feature, reach inside the skirt and attach the leg loops around your thighs using the provided touch tape. For care, wash according to the label instructions, ideally using a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the water-repellent properties of the material. Periodically re-applying a technical garment waterproofing spray can help maintain the skirt's performance over time.
