Anyone who spends time around horses knows the struggle: one minute you are freezing on the yard, the next you are hot, busy, and trying to find somewhere to put your coat where it won’t get dirty or trodden on by your horse. More often than not, it gets tied around your waist, still in the way, slipping down, and needing to be readjusted every few minutes. That everyday frustration is exactly why EQUIDRY introduced backpack carry straps into their waterproof equestrian coat designs, offering a simple, innovative way to carry your coat without interrupting your routine.
Coats Designed for Real Equestrian Life
The idea behind backpack carry straps is simple, but it makes a real difference to everyday yard life. Instead of tying your waterproof coat around your waist or leaving it somewhere and hoping for the best, you can slip it onto your shoulders and carry it comfortably, hands-free.
For riders dealing with the UK’s unpredictable weather, this means you can easily adapt to changes throughout the day - take it off when it is warmer, then quickly pull it back on when the rain starts to fall. Your coat stays clean, close by and ready when you need it, whether you are heading out for a walk, poo-picking the fields or working all day at the yard.

Why Riders Love the Backpack Carry Feature
EQUIDRY’s backpack carry straps are designed to feel effortless while adding versatility to your waterproof riding coat. Here are some of the key benefits:
-
Hidden design keeps the coat looking clean and premium
-
Quick to use when you need to take your coat on and off
-
Lightweight feel for comfortable carrying on your shoulders
-
Secure fit during busy yard jobs and handling horses
-
Fully removable so you can wear your coat with or without the straps
