Ladies Horse Riding Shirts, Tops & Jackets
Whether you're after equestrian tops for early morning schooling, a polished competition shirt for the arena, or a riding jacket for the cold side of the stable - the right horse riding clothes are here. Browse the full range or go straight to your style below.
Ladies Horse Riding Shirts & Jackets | The Delzani Range
Australian riders don't get one climate — and they don't get one occasion. A breathable technical training shirt for a hot Queensland school is a different garment to a polished competition shirt for a dressage test, or a warm fleece hoodie for a cold southern morning. Delzani's ladies' horse riding shirts and jackets are built around that reality: fabric, fit and function chosen for your ride, your discipline and your conditions.
Which Riding Shirt Do You Need? | Style Guide
The right shirt depends on where you're riding, what you're doing and how long you'll be in the saddle. Use this as your starting point.

Choosing the Right Riding Shirt
- Fit: All Delzani ladies' riding shirts use our EzyFit cut - relaxed and comfortable through the chest, waist and hip, with stretch fabric that moves with you in the saddle without being baggy. Shoulder measurements are consistent across every style, so if you're a Medium in one shirt, you're a Medium in all of them. Read our full size guide.
- Fabric: Technical and training shirts use moisture-wicking, breathable fabrics engineered for sweat and movement. Competition shirts prioritise a clean, structured finish. Polo shirts use premium cotton blends for comfort that carries beyond the yard.
- Sleeve length: Long sleeve riding shirts provide natural UV protection and reduce sun exposure in the saddle. For maximum protection in Australian conditions, pair any shirt with our SPF50 sun sleeves.
- Discipline dress codes: Competition shirts must meet event dress standards. Read our dressage dress code guide or showjumping dress code guide before buying for competition.
Why Delzani Riding Shirts Perform Differently
Most equestrian shirt brands at this price point cut corners on fabric specification - thinner spandex blends that lose their stretch after a season, moisture-wicking treatments applied as a surface coating that wash out over time, or competition cuts that look polished on the rack but pull across the shoulders the moment you're in the saddle.
Delzani shirts are specced to perform over the long term. The moisture-wicking construction is built into the fabric - not applied as a surface treatment. Every style is cut for a rider in the saddle, not a model standing still. And because we use standard Australian sizing with consistent shoulder measurements across the entire range, what's on the label is what you get. Use our size guide to measure an existing shirt for a guaranteed fit first time.
FAQs: Ladies Horse Riding Shirts in Australia
What's the difference between a competition shirt and a training shirt?
Competition shirts are structured and tailored — designed to meet arena dress standards and present a sharp, professional finish. Training shirts prioritise breathability and freedom of movement for long sessions in the saddle. Both use stretch fabrics, but training shirts focus on airflow and moisture management over silhouette.
Do Delzani shirts run true to size?
Yes. Delzani uses standard Australian sizing with consistent shoulder measurements across all shirt styles. A Medium in a competition shirt is the same shoulder width as a Medium in a polo or training shirt. Use our size guide to measure an existing shirt before ordering.
Are the shirts suitable for Australian summer conditions?
Yes. Technical and training shirts use breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics designed for heat and long sessions. For additional sun protection, our SPF50 sun sleeves pair with any shirt in the range and provide rated UV arm coverage without overheating.
Can I wear a polo shirt to competition?
Polo shirts are designed for casual riding, training and yard wear - not competition. For dressage, show jumping or pony club events, choose from our competition and show shirt range and check the relevant dress code guide for your discipline before purchasing.
How do I wash my riding shirts?
Delzani riding shirts are designed to be ridden in and washed regularly. Follow our shirt washing and care guide to maintain fabric performance and extend shirt life over multiple seasons.
What is the mix-and-match deal?
Mix any two shirts from the range and pay just $35 each. The deal applies across all styles - combine a competition shirt with a training top, two polos in different colours, or any other combination. Add both to cart and the discount applies automatically.
