Ride In Style With ZP176 Clothing

By Jerri Perry


Horse-riding usually conjures up different images for different people. Some may think of cowboys out on the range, wearing leather chaps and Western boots. Others think of jockeys in sweaters of many colors. The most elegant type of rider though seems to be the one in jodhpurs, riding boots, cap and fitted jacket. These riders often move in the type of circles that can afford horses bred from champion bloodlines. With ZP176 equestrian clothing, you can feel like an aristocrat too.

One reason why people often associate horse-riding events like dressage with the upper classes is because of the British royal family. Their love of horses is legendary. You'll often see newspaper photographs of Prince Charles or Prince Harry playing polo. Prince Philip has been a pioneer in events like competitive carriage riding and while the Queen doesn't really ride anymore, she still owns champion racehorses.

Like her parents and her brothers, Princess Anne grew up with a deep love of riding. She met Captain Mark Phillips through the sport and married this champion rider, who had won a gold medal at the 1972 Olympics. She herself represented her country as a member of the British equestrian team at the 1976 Olympics and was the first British royal to do so.

It was almost a given that the princess' and her husband's children would grow up in the saddle. Their daughter Zara followed in their footsteps and from 2006 to 2010 she was the world champion in eventing. In 2012 she won a silver medal at the Olympics in London and press photographers were delighted as a proud Princess Anne presented her daughter with the medal.

Zara is not only an accomplished rider. In school, she excelled not only in a variety of sports but also academically. She became a qualified physiotherapist, naturally specializing in equine physiotherapy. She married rugby hero Mike Tindall and in 2013 she had to give up riding for a while as she was expecting their first child, a daughter who no doubt will grow up with a love of horses too.

Clearly not one for sitting still, Zara has diversified into a completely different industry too with the launch of her line of clothing. Unsurprisingly, she chose to design a range of equestrian clothes. They are stylish and fashionable but they do not compromise on comfort. The line includes not only tops and jackets but also accessories like riding caps, headbands and even socks.

Zara's line is available through Musto Outdoor Clothing. They have stores in the UK. However, if you live anywhere in Europe, you can order items designed by the young woman who is fifteenth in the line of succession to the British throne and they will deliver to you.

Musto also makes clothing for sailing, shooting and other outdoor activities. However, if you want to ride in style, be sure to pick up some items from Zara's ZP176 range. In this way you will not only look great in the saddle but will feel comfortable and who knows, maybe a little royal glamour and a lot of riding talent will rub off on you too.
