All Purpose riding gloves; a rider’s everyday essential.

 Just Chaps is proud to win a second product recommendation from Horse & Hound. In recent trials, their All Purpose riding gloves were given a score of 9/10. Here’s the write-up from Horse and Hound. And here is the story behind this product success. 

Constant Product Development

The Just Chaps team make it clear: “We are always working on new products – and always working on how best to get these new great products in front of riders”.

Working with excellent manufacturers is key. The product development at Just Chaps have great ideas but behind this, great manufacturers are required to source the best textiles and produce consistently high quality garments. 

“We loved putting together the All Purpose gloves for riders. It was obvious to us what riders needed”. Research showed that riders would love a glove that offered warmth and comfort without bulk, good grip and washability. “Our best gloves manufacturer knew exactly what we were looking for and it didn’t take long to agree on requirements. Fast forward several months and we were ready to launch. “

Perfect Timing for the All Purpose Gloves

Timed to perfection, Horse & Hound were looking for new release gloves to be tested by professional riders before products went on sale. 

All of the gloves in this group test were put through their paces by professional dressage rider Keith Robertson and his team at Wild Farm Equestrian. Read more about the testing here:

Keith found that: “These gloves were really comfortable and they kept my hands really warm, so I wore them for both riding and yard work. They stood up to regular wear really well and still look smart.”

Perfect Riding Gloves

Just Chaps choose softshell as the main fabric because it is inherently cosy, comfortable and waterproof. We line the softshell with Thinsulate to add a little more warmth. As the name suggests, “Thinsulate” offers a thin layer of insulation.

All Purpose – the team chose this name because the gloves are just that! They do a great job in the yard when filling hay nets, cleaning, dealing with your horse. And they are equally good for riding. Needlesstosay, they are the perfect all-rounder for a chilly day. 

We make All Purpose Gloves in a wide range of sizes from XS to XL. XS is a good size for teenagers or children who are starting to looking for a better quality glove. XL will normally fit a man’s hand. 

“We are so proud to be recognised again for another practical and affordable solution for the riding community” commented Just Chaps MD, Helen Salmon.
