Dutch company Equirex to launch to UK market

Dutch company Equirex will launch its range of equestrian sportswear at Burghley Horse Trials next week (30 August-2 September).

This will be the company’s first venture into the UK equestrian market.

Equirex has a range of breeches, jackets and casual riding tops that “combine comfort and style with earth conscious materials” such as certified organic cotton and pure merino wool.

“We are excited about launching our collection at Burghley,” said Marjolein van Hilten from Equirex. “We will be in the Green Lifestyle Pavilion as we felt this was particularly fitting for our brand.

“While our apparel has been made to have less environmental impact, the design and fabrics used are flattering, comfortable, elegant and great to wear.

“Merino wool is the ultimate equestrian sports fabric due to its natural ability to wick moisture, breathe and regulate body temperature. Above all, it does not absorb the smell of the horse and stable and, to top it off, it’s very comfortable to wear.”

The Equirex Merino Jacket is made from 100% merino wool comes in spring blue, midnight blue and antra, in sizes XS-XL. The jacket costs £117.50.
