Uhips history

It all started with the riding skirt that was launched in the fall of 2011.

It all started with Uhip's riding skirt, which was launched as a completely new functional garment for riding in the autumn of 2011. Uhip's cover skirt was quickly named “Riding Skirt” among riders and was unique in it's kind as you could ride in it and keep warm in the saddle without sacrificing on the fact of riding in riding breeches. The unique thing about Uhip's riding skirt was zippers front and back, unlike others on the market that had the zippers on the side. The unique design was protected by design at the Swedish Patent and Registration Office and the European equivalent.

The journey begins in the hallway on the way to the stable

In the autumn of 2010, I came up with the idea for a riding- and cover skirt that would make it possible for riders to ride in riding breeches in the winter and let the sides of the skirt hang down and warm the exposed thighs in the saddle. The inspiration came from the already launched cover skirt with zippers on the side. I happened to turn the skirt so that the zippers came front and back instead of in the side and then saw in front of me that it was quite possible to ride in the skirt.

An idea was born - an idea that was too good not to be taken further

The idea grew a couple of months, but it was too good to be forgotten. Said and done, I sewed up a prototype (I have sewn all my life) and went to the stable to try it out while my husband took photos of me riding. Wow, it worked!

 

The Patent & Registration Office was contacted for design protection of the idea and after a couple of adjustments, the skirt's unique design was protected. In the summer of 2011, one sewing supplier in China and one in the UAE were selected to produce a sample. The choice fell on the supplier in the UAE and the production started at full speed with the first delivery in November 2011.

Jackets with "hand-warmers"

In parallel, a jacket was worked on, a jacket with special cuffs for riders, cuffs with a fold-down hand warmer that could be folded down and warm frozen riding fingers. The cuffs or hand warmer were also design protected. The third major product became today's bestseller, the long coat with a high slit at the back. A coat that you kept warm in regardless of activity but without sacrificing a stylish design.

Smart functions and carefully selected materials

Inspiration for the materials was taken from the Outdoor industry, where knowledge and technology were ahead of the horse industry in terms of manufacturing garments for harsh environments with moisture, wet and cold. What we added were smart functions that would facilitate stable life so you were not limited by either mobility or cold. Riders could simply do what they love most in outerwear of good, appropriate materials and smart features.

 

The marketing started on Facebook and the collection of e-mail addresses. The first delivery came home just in time for the horse competitions in Stockholm "Globen Horse Show" (at the time Friends Arena did not exist) and the interest became enormous.

 

The number of followers on social media exploded and equestrian media wrote extensively about the new and smart product.

 

A new entrepreneurial company had been born.

Produsentens beskriv

The riding skirt is Uhip's true classic. Designed to keep the rider warm in the saddle without bulky breeches, it pairs well with a jacket in a coordinating color, making it a versatile alternative to a long coat.
 

Tailored features for horse riding

By unzipping the two-way zipper in the front and back, you can sit in the saddle while the riding skirt hangs down, warming your thighs. Inner leg bands keep the skirt in place during your ride.
 

Easy to put on and take off

The thermal skirt is effortless to put on and take off with the two-way zipper in the front. Because the skirt is divided at the top, you never have to struggle with dirty shoes; you can even take it off while seated in the saddle. Perfect for removing after the warm-up and putting on when it's time to cool down the horse.

It keeps you warm during cold winter days

Crafted with attention to detail, material selection, and function, the riding skirt in the Nordic collection is filled with high-quality synthetic insulation that keeps you warm even in sub-zero temperatures. The insulation retains warmth even when damp, making it ideal for changing weather conditions.

Weather and wind protection

With a water column of 3000 mm and taped seams, the Nordic offers some protection against precipitation while primarily designed to provide warmth.

Stylish and functional fit

Nordic includes long and mid-length coats, jackets, and skirts, all designed to be form-fitting without feeling tight. They are quilted with wide, full channels and rich colors. The fabric has a pearlescent-like, beautifully shimmering surface. The wide, plush channels in the quilting, along with the rich colors and pearl-like surface, provide an exclusive and appealing look.

Materiale

Shell:

3/3 Polyamide 2-layer, 100% Polyamide, Ripstop with shiny surface. TPU Film

Durable and lightweight 2-layer Polyamide material. Polyamides are known for their durability and resistance to wear and tear. They are commonly used in outdoor and performance clothing. Polyamide is a lightweight material that is stronger than polyester in relation to its weight. Also referred to as Nylon. Ripstop construction with a shiny surface makes the garments more resistant to tearing and ripping. PU membrane to provide high water protection and breathability.

WP: 3000 mm

Water column is a way of measuring the degree of waterproofness in a garment to understand the garment's ability not to let water through. How high a water column a garment can withstand is also affected by how it is used; a harder and more active use requires more of the material. Therefore, we recommend regular reinforcement with impregnation to ensure the full function of the garment.

MP: 3000g/m2/24h

Breathability is often measured in a ‘g/m2/24hrs’ measurement. This rating represents the amount of water (or sweat) by weight that can pass through a square metre of fabric over a day.

Taped seams

Essentially, taping seams enhance the waterproof protection of clothing. Needle stitching leaves tiny holes in the garment through which water can seep when worn in wet conditions; taped seams prevent this from happening.

Bionic Finish ECO Fluorocarbon free DWR

Fluorine-free water repellent textile finishes to achieve water-repellent effects. Many plants have a natural water repellency. BIONIC-FINISH® ECO absorbs this effect so that we can use it for our products.

Insulation:

Uhip does not use down in our garments, but we have used wool or synthetic fibres instead. The benefits of synthetic insulations are that they keep the heat even in wet condition and it dries quickly. The basic principle for all insulations is the same: small spaces in the fibres encapsulate body heat and keep you warm. The more air between the body and the cold, the more effective insulation.

DuPont™ Sorona®, SEE ECO 60% Elastomultiester with Sorona®, 40% Polyester, Downlike synthetic

DuPont™ Sustans Sorona® ,SEE PRO 200gsm, 60% Elastomultiester with Sorona®, 40% Polyester, Flat synthetic

See DuPont™ Sorona® is a synthetic insulation focused on sustainability made from annually renewable plant-based ingredients. DuPont™ Sorona® fibres are produced with a patented technology that provides lightweight, breathable warmth with a soft feeling and has superior compression and recovery. It is quick drying and also has the benefit of keeping you warm even if it gets wet. DuPont™ Sorona® fibre/ polymer is Oeko-Tex® certified.

Lining:

Dot Pattern print lining, 100% Recycled Polyester

All Uhip products are made with 100% recycled Polyester, 38gsm. Recycled polyester is made from recycled materials (PET and polyester fabrics). By choosing recycled polyester, we can deliver the same technical performance in fibres with a smaller environmental footprint.
