Europe’s premier indoor equestrian event, Olympia, The London International Horse Show, has announced a brand new partnership with leading performance clothing brand MUSTO as the official outdoor clothing supplier for the week-long equine extravaganza. 


The phenomenally popular event at Olympia is the climax of the equestrian calendar and features the greatest possible mix of equine pursuits under one roof. With organisers expecting yet another record attendance, this December’s event will showcase an array of Olympic legends and Rio 2016 hopefuls. Previous riders have included London 2012 Olympic Gold Medallists and current World Number One’s in their respective disciplines, Charlotte Dujardin and Scott Brash. 


The Olympia Horse Show not only provides action galore inside the famous arena, but there will also be over 200 bustling stalls for fans to top up their Christmas shopping; MUSTO’s exclusive ‘Olympia’ products will be available for purchase from the Olympia Merchandise stand. Known for pushing the boundaries of design and innovation, MUSTO create highly technical garments that allow the wearer to perform at their best, whilst remaining fully protected from the elements:

Developed in a showerproof polyester fabric, the Snug Blouson also boasts an incredibly warm polyester fleece lining and a high collar construction inspired by the brands sailing DNA, for unrivalled weather protection. Available in adult and youth sizes, additional features to this pioneering jacket include internal security pockets, welted zipped side pockets, and a ribbed hem and  cuff to protect from water ingress.  
•The Evolution Sardinia Gore-Tex® Jacket is seam taped and constructed in 2 layer Gore-Tex® fabric for unrivalled breathability, durability and water resistance. The adjustable and removable hood inspired by the brands sailing collections, effectively keeps out the wind and rain, making it a wardrobe staple for outdoor activities. Available in both men's and women's sizes, the Sardinia Gore-Tex® jacket boasts a stylish silhouette, whilst keeping the wearer well  protected from the elements. 
•Also in the collection, is the Small 18L Carryall in GBR red; a stylish MUSTO carryall, engineered in splash resistant fabric with a heavy duty zip closure and external Velcro pocket for additional storage. 

 

The partnership also sees MUSTO support next year’s Royal Windsor Horse Show from 11-15th May, the must go-to event for equestrian and country lovers, and Her Majesty the Queen’s 90th Birthday Celebration which will wow crowds with four 90 minute evening performances from 12-15th May. Both events will take place in the private grounds of Windsor Castle, the only time the beautiful gardens are open to the public. 


Show Director Simon Brooks-Ward, said: “We’re delighted to announce that MUSTO will be one of the sponsors of this year’s show and will continue their support at The Royal Windsor Horse Show in 2016.
“This will be my 22nd year as Event Director for Olympia and it’s great to see that it’s still a firm favourite amongst the top riders and fans who return year after year.  The Show remains popular with respected brands that appeal to those who enjoy an outdoors lifestyle and as the UK’s largest equestrian Christmas event, Olympia is able to deliver them a fantastic shop window.”
