Water-repellent clothing to suit the British climate

Manufacturer: Splash Innovations Ltd.
Reviewed by Jacqui McWhinney

Description: Water-repellent, pre-shrunk cotton stretch jodhpurs and clothing.

Features include:-

• Pre-shrunk cotton stretch fabric
• 4" stretch waistband with expansion facility!
• 6" stretch thighs 'n' bum
• Machine wash and tumble dry
• Two leg lengths, regular (R) 29" and long (L) 32"
• Children's sizes available
• Exciting colours
• Free post on jods only
• Secure on-line ordering

Best features:- Comfort! Because they are made of stretch fabric, they are really comfortable to wear – even after lunch! They also have the added advantage of being water-repellent, which I can vouch for from personal experience. When Nige thought a good test would be to throw a glass of water at me, the water ran straight off the jodhpurs and didn’t soak through to my skin.

I have worn these whilst training and walking the dogs and have found them great – fast becoming as essential as my Ditas!

I was a little wary of washing them at first due to their nature, but I have now washed them three times and they are as good as new, with no shrinkage.

There are also Rugger shirts and ultra-lightweight water repellent jackets.

Could be improved: I don’t see any need for improvement.  There are plenty of colours to choose from – and the sizes accommodate women, men and children of all builds.

Range of colours

Style and design: I like both the design and style of this product and look forward to the jeans that Splash are soon to bring out.

Prices: £39.99 for adult and £29.99 for children.

Delivery: Delivery was quick and hassle free. There is also free postage on jodhpurs.

Value for Money: Excellent. I thought it seemed a little expensive at first, but they are well worth the money.

Overall rating: 10/10 - I have virtually lived in them since I got them

About the company...
Splash is based near Northampton and, although a young company, has been fortunate enough to rapidly gain an extremely enthusiastic following- noticeably on the show tour, where customers frequently find themselves having water tipped over them as a part of the notorious "water test"!!  Despite being extremely unique products, as well as being manufactured in Great Britain, the company believes in producing top quality clothing at an affordable price.  Always new and exciting, Splash continues to launch new products and new colours- available first from the website.

I was more than happy to do a review on Splash because I was so impressed with them and think they are suited to dog-minded people.
