The ZP 176 Line Of Zara Phillips Clothing

By Eula Nichols


Riders today expect the very highest performance from their riding jackets. Gone are the days when spending time outside meant coming home wet and cold. Serious equestrians have nothing but praise for the ZP 176 line of Zara Phillips clothing. Working in conjunction with the well known outdoor outfitters, Musto, the well known rider and member of the royal family has also lent her talents to designing a functional yet stylish line of outdoor clothes.

Both Zara's parents were Olympic level event riders and it is no surprise that their daughter has followed in their footsteps. She grew up on horseback and has always been a talented and dedicated equestrian. Lending her talents to the development of high quality riding clothes is yet another one of her many talents.

After teaming up with the well known sailing outfitter Musto, Phillips has assisted with the design and development of a complete range of riding wear. There are hats, shirts, sweaters, jackets and even chaps. All have one thing in common, an outstanding level of quality that makes them out perform their competitors in every way.

The same technology that has been used to such great effect in the sailing world has now been adopted by the equestrian world too. Riders can take advantage of the latest fabrics such as taped seams that are one hundred percent water proof. A moisture layer is specially designed to move dampness away from the body and force it out through the fabric.

In addition to the water proofing, the jackets are also tailored to the needs of a rider. They are not bulky and do not restrict movement. Carefully placed vents allow for comfort in the saddle and are perfect for those who spend most of their day riding, such as professional trainers. Even the shirts have amazing attention to detail, including micro polyester pique fabric that wicks moisture away from the body to keep riders comfortable in all weathers.

The very popular ZP 176 Grooms Jacket is a another very practical yet affordable item. Retailing for around one hundred pounds it represents outstanding value for money. The outer shell is wind and show proof, making it perfect for those blustery spring days. It is available in a range of sizes and the strong front zipper makes it very easy to slip on and off. The navy blue color is versatile and practical.

Children have not been left out of the line at all. As a mother herself Phillips knows just how important it is to offer parents some fun yet functional clothes for their children. Jackets are made to the same exacting standards as the adults, and sweaters combine fun colors with rugged construction.

Riders are loving the versatile and affordable line of Zara Phillips clothing. There is everything from hats to socks, all designed with the equestrian in mind. The fleece zip ups are light weight and perfect for layering. Made from breathable polyester they have a flattering fit and are loaded with extra features.
