New In at Dapple: Meet Our Compression Riding Leggings & Short Sleeve Show Shirts

If you’re spending more time in the saddle lately (despite the Irish weather doing its best to test us 😅), having the right kit makes all the difference. We’re excited to introduce two new additions to the Dapple Equestrian range: our Compression Riding Leggings and Short Sleeve Show Shirts, designed for comfort, performance, and real-life riding.

Whether you’re schooling at home, heading out hacking, or prepping for show season, these pieces are made to move with you and keep you comfortable from yard to saddle.

Butter-Soft Compression Shaper Riding Leggings

Our new Dapple Compression Riding Leggings are built around one simple idea: performance without sacrificing comfort. Made from a butter-soft, smoothing compression fabric, they offer a supportive second-skin feel that’s comfortable enough for all-day wear.

They feature 4-way stretch for complete freedom of movement and a high-waisted, wide waistband that stays put in the saddle. The full seat silicone grip provides secure contact without feeling restrictive, while the seam-free inner leg design helps prevent rubbing on longer rides.

Practical details matter too – which is why we’ve added two deep pockets for your phone or essentials. Finished in classic, easy-to-style colours, these leggings work just as well for everyday riding as they do for lessons and clinics.

Why riders love them:

• Butter-soft compression fabric for comfort and support

• Full seat silicone grip for stability in the saddle

• High waist for a flattering, secure fit

• Quick-dry, non-see-through material

• Handy pockets for everyday riding life

Stay Cool in Our Short Sleeve Show Shirts

Hot weather, sweaty sessions, or busy show days? Our new Dapple Short Sleeve Show Shirts are designed to help you stay cool when it counts.

Made from a lightweight, breathable sports fabric, these shirts feature air mesh panels on the arms, shoulders, and upper back to improve airflow where you need it most. The half-zip design with high collar gives a clean, smart finish for competitions, while still feeling sporty and comfortable for training.

The fabric is stretchy, quick-drying, and easy to care for, making these show shirts a great option for summer riding, clinics, or long days at the yard when you want to feel polished without overheating.

Why riders love them:

• Short sleeve design for warm-weather riding

• Breathable mesh panels for extra ventilation

• Quick-drying, stretchy sports fabric

• Smart high collar with half-zip detail

• Comfortable enough for training, tidy enough for shows

Designed for Real Riders

Both our new leggings and show shirts were designed with everyday riders in mind – the early mornings, the quick changes between jobs, the long sessions in the saddle, and the days when comfort is just as important as how you look.

They’re easy to mix and match with the rest of your Dapple wardrobe, and perfect for building a practical riding outfit that works hard all year round.
