Cavalleria Toscana Jackets
This is the outerwear you actually live in. Away from the show ring, Cavalleria Toscana applies the same technical thinking to jackets built for the yard, the schooling arena and everything either side of it, early mornings in the cold, a wet hack, the drive home, the coffee afterwards. The pieces are cut to be ridden in and designed to look like something you'd wear regardless.
The range covers the seasons properly. Softshell jackets are the year-round workhorse: windproof and water-repellent outer fabrics with a brushed inner face, stretch through the shoulder so the rein isn't fighting you, and a slim profile that layers under nothing and over everything. Puffer and quilted jackets take over when it turns properly cold, using lightweight insulation that holds warmth without the bulk that makes most winter coats useless on a horse. Bombers and lighter technical styles handle the in-between months and the days when you want something sharper than a schooling layer.
Detailing is the brand's usual restraint, tonal logo work, contrast zips and trims, clean lines rather than loud branding — in year-round black, navy and grey alongside the seasonal colours released with each collection. Sizing spans ladies' and men's fits, cut close in the Italian style. Browse the complete jacket range here, with full size charts and specifications on every product page.
Frequently Asked Questions about CT Jackets
Which Cavalleria Toscana jacket should I choose?
It depends on the season and what you're doing in it. Softshell is the most versatile, light enough to ride in year-round, warm enough for most of autumn and spring. A puffer or quilted jacket is the winter option, warmer but bulkier in the shoulder. Bombers and lighter styles sit between the two and lean more casual. Riders who are out daily through the year usually end up with a softshell and a puffer rather than one jacket doing both jobs.
How does Cavalleria Toscana jacket sizing work?
CT uses Italian sizing, which runs slimmer and shorter than most Northern European brands, particularly through the sleeve and body length. Check the measurements in the size chart rather than ordering your usual size, and if you're tall, pay attention to sleeve length before chest. Size up if you plan to layer a technical knit or bodywarmer underneath.
Are these jackets waterproof?
Water-repellent and windproof rather than fully waterproof. Softshell and quilted styles shrug off drizzle and handle yard work comfortably, but sustained rain will eventually get through. For genuinely wet weather, a dedicated rain jacket is the right tool.
Can you ride in a puffer jacket?
Yes, and the CT quilted styles are cut with that in mind, shorter at the back, stretch panels through the shoulder, no bulk at the waist to bunch under a hip. That said, any insulated jacket restricts the shoulder more than a softshell. For schooling that needs precision, most riders reach for the thinner layer.
How do I wash a technical or quilted jacket?
Cool machine wash on a gentle cycle, no fabric softener, it clogs the membrane on softshells and mats the filling in a puffer. Zip everything closed first. Air dry away from direct heat; quilted jackets benefit from a low tumble with dryer balls to redistribute the filling, but only if the care label allows it. Check the label on your specific style.
