The Value Of A Musto Riding Coat

By Eula Nichols


Equestrians all over the country are raving about the excellent performance of their Musto riding coat. These brilliantly designed coats have been created with the great outdoors in mind. In fact the company was founded back in 1964 by Keith Musto an avid sailor. He and his contemporaries were tired of having to sail and race in soaking wet clothing.

After spending months trying to find a company that was interested in making water proof clothing for sailors, Keith decided to take matters into his own hands and founded his own company. Initially the new jackets, hats and trousers were designed with the needs or sailors in mind. But it didn't take long for the Keith and the company to realise that the horse world was just as much in need of a whole new range of water proof clothing as they were.

Musto technological is particularly effective because it was first designed for use by sailors. The founder of the company, Keith Musto was an avid sailor who quickly became tired of being cold and wet every time he went out on the water. Keith thought that it must be possible to develop a range of wind and water resistant clothing that would make outdoor sports more comfortable. Eventually he went on to found his own company and his lines of riding and sailing clothes are now world famous.

Equestrians were another group of active outdoor sports people who were tired of being cold and wet. Keith decided to branch out and work on a line of clothing for riders and stable workers. The result has been phenomenal and provided exactly what was needed. High quality yet stylish jackets and trousers for riders at every level.
