Charles Owens Showjumper XP Hat

The Charles Owen classic profile, covered with thick pile deep velvet. For extra comfort lined with absorbent cotton, and fitted with a neat padded soft leather harness, made from Pittards water and grease resistant Nappa. The new European standard BSEN 1384 1997 has been published and replaces BS4472 and BS6473. PAS015 is the British version of the European standard, and although both standards are similar, PAS015 offers slightly better protection. The majority of equestrian associations made the use of PAS015/BSEN1384 headwear compulsory in 1998. The BSJA is insisting that all riders wear PAS015/BSEN1384 from 1st April 2000. The BSPS have no plans to change their current requirements until 20001. All Charles Owen Hats and Helmets are dual standard.
