About the product: <\/strong>The Euro-Star Ladonna Ladies Long Waterproof Jacket<\/a> is perfect for wearing out riding when the weather isn’t looking too good this winter! Both windproof and waterproof, the taped seams keep the elements out and ensure that you are super comfortable throughout wear. A 2-way full front zip with chin protector and unique rear vent makes the Ladonna perfect for riding in, as it offers superb freedom of movement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What were your first impressions? <\/strong>“It appeared a very durable and practical long winter jacket with snug insulating lining which isn\u2019t too heavy or bulky. It has a handy phone pocket just inside on the chest and the faux fur lined hood is super soft and cosy but functional that it is able to be removed.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How was the sizing & fit? <\/strong>“The fit is flattering and true to size. Its super comfortable, and can wear it without a jumper and I don\u2019t feel swamped by it but I am also able to pop on an extra layer underneath \u2013 perfect for when temperatures drop! I really liked that it is able to be adjusted at the waist by the pull-in fastenings. This feature gave a better shape to my waistline rather than the fit being completely straight on me.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did you test the product? <\/strong>“I wore it whilst I was hacking, schooling, doing my jobs on the yard and even competing. I was testing it in some very windy, and rainy conditions and on every occasion I was kept warm and dry \u2013 and even clean at a competition as once done up it keeps me completely covered!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What was your favourite feature? <\/strong>“My favourite feature is the length and also the rear zips. I\u2019m 5\u20195ft and whilst it keeps my upper body warm, it also keeps my legs warm whilst riding. I love that using the rear zips I can open the jacket out to keep my saddle dry too. Gone are the days of having to wait days for my saddle to dry out after being caught in the rain!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any other comments? <\/strong>“I would highly recommend it to anyone that it looking for a long riding jacket to keep themselves warm and dry this winter. I know that it will get a lot of use but am confident in its design that it will definitely last! It\u2019s flattering and stylish whilst also offering great defence against the winter weather.” <\/p>\n\n\n
