FAQs
Is this coat warm enough for winter?
The coat features a light 50g fill, making it suitable for mild or transitional weather. For very cold winter conditions, layering underneath or choosing a heavier insulated coat would be recommended.
What does a waterproof rating of 5000mm mean?
A 5000mm rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 5000mm column of water for a 24-hour period without leaking. This is suitable for moderate rain.
Can the hood be removed completely?
Yes, the hood is detachable, allowing you to remove it when not needed or for a different aesthetic.
How do I adjust the waist?
The coat has an internal adjustable waist system, typically with drawcords or toggles, allowing you to cinch it in for a more fitted silhouette.
What kind of activities is this coat best suited for?
It is ideal for equestrian activities like riding, yard work, and general outdoor pursuits in wet or windy weather during milder seasons.
Are there other color options available?
This specific product is listed in Blue. Other colors such as Black may be available in the Aubrion Equestrian Lightweight Coat range.
Troubleshooting
Coat is leaking in heavy rain.
Ensure all zippers are fully closed. Check if the taped seams are intact. Consider re-applying a waterproofing treatment to the outer fabric if it appears to be absorbing water.
Rider feels damp or sweaty inside.
Ensure the coat is zipped up correctly, but consider opening it slightly or removing the hood if undertaking strenuous activity. Check that the breathability rating is sufficient for the activity level and conditions. Ensure inner layers are also breathable.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the coat's waterproof and breathable properties, follow these care guidelines:
