Shires Aubrion Optima LX Show Coat - Technical Performance Equestrian Competition Jacket

Radiate Confidence in the Show Ring

There’s nothing worse than a show coat that gapes or pulls while you're trying to focus on your line. The Aubrion Optima LX Show Coat by Shires is designed to eliminate that distraction, combining a sleek, tailored silhouette with the technical performance you need for a high-stakes round.

This isn't just another black jacket; the "LX" luxury detailing brings a touch of brilliance with iridescent diamante chains along the lapels and cuffs. Built for the long haul of the show season, it offers a high-end finish that catches the eye without sacrificing the professional look you demand—from our barn to yours.

Performance Meets Precision

• Move without restriction with four-way stretch technology that allows for full range of motion in the shoulders and arms, perfect for active riders.
• Stand out in the ring with the signature LX luxury detailing, featuring iridescent diamante chains that add a radiant, elite finish to your show attire.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I choose the right size for the Aubrion Optima LX?

Sizing is based on chest circumference in inches. Since Shires is a UK brand, we recommend measuring over your show shirt and checking the conversion chart, as a UK 10 typically fits like a US 6. If you have broader shoulders, consider sizing up for the best fit through the back of the Aubrion Optima LX Show Coat.

Q: Is this coat appropriate for the Hunter ring?

While this coat is a favorite for Show Jumping and Dressage where modern accents are encouraged, the diamante detailing may be considered a bit too flashy for traditional American Hunter divisions.
