As riders and online shoppers, we know it can be tough to buy a new bridle or pair of boots without trying them on. That's why we moved the fitting room to your living room (or barn)! From breeches to blankets, if you or your horse can try it on, you can return it, free! Just request a return with a FREE SmartPak return label from your Order History within 60 days of the purchase date. And of course, please make sure the item is in like-new condition with original packaging (we said 'fitting room', not 'war room'!).
Why We Love This
The Eventer Pro is Tipperary’s state-of-the-art cross-country vest featuring the latest technology, an anatomical fit and carries ASTM/SEI certification. Our patented Tectonic foam plating is a unique double layer pattern that moves and flexes with the rider without any separation or gaps providing unmatched support. The Live Spine™ technology provides increased impact protection while flexing and matching the riders’ movements. The torso is cut higher in the front to encourage agility in the hip angle and lower at the back to cover the tailbone. Shoulders are designed to allow maximum reach and rotation of the rider’s arms. Flex Lace Closures™ provide a customized fit and allow the vest to expand and contract with the rider’s movement.

is designed to be adjustable. - Chest: Under the arms at the widest part
across the chest. - Waist: At natural waist.
- Spine: Measure from the base of the neck
to where your belt would sit. - Note that the “long” version of the vest adds

Putting on Your Vest:
- Each time you put on your Competitor vest,
make sure all the Velcro® straps at the sides are

Size Perfect
I got this in exchange for the Champion vest that did not fit at all. This vest is a great fit and the quality seems good as well. Jessica who works there recommended the switch and she was spot on! She was the deciding factor.

Comfortable and full coverage
Good product and reasonable price. Comfortable and light. Full coverage of body. I’m In a southern state and vest is not hot like some I have used. Easy to adjust to fit snug but allows free movement.

Faulty zipper
I have two old Tipperary safety vests that had worn thin. They lasted so long that I was confident about buying a replacement but to my disappointment after a handful of rides the zipper has consistently become undone from the bottom leaving the vest fastened only my neck.

I love my Tipperary Eventer Pro!
This was my first safety vest purchase and I spent about 2 or 3 months researching all the available options. I was looking for a non-air vest that didn't break down in the brutal Florida heat.
Speaking of heat, yes it does make summer riding a little warmer but the side lace helps with air flow. I just wear a thin shirt with it. It definitely does not make it so warm that I won't use it.
I have 5 and 6 year old geldings that are pretty level headed but being introduced to trails and I am in my 50's now and don't bounce like I used to. It gives me a bit more peace of mind having this vest.
Some reviews stated the zipper malfunctioned and that is why I waited to review. The lace sides allow for it to be kept looser while zipping then the side lace can be easily snugged up vs zipping with the vest already tightened on the sides. It is still plenty rigid but quickly formed to my shape and have had zero issues. It still looks like new after heavy use for over 6 months.
I highly recommend this vest.

I love my new Vest
I bought my vest a few months ago and I love it! I bought the tall and it is tall enough, that is the hardest part about buying vets as an average weight tall person. It is light weight, it breaths, and I feel like it moves with me instead of against me. I also love that it meets all of the new safety standard world wide.

Long enough in torso
I bought a small tall for my 5’11 145 lb frame and it seems to fit well and covers my tail bone. Don’t notice it when riding so comfortable. Concerned about reviews on zip failures but instructions for use say to have side strings loose while zippering or unzipping so hopefully this will save the zip. Seems high quality. Not had it long enough to rate 5 star.

Wished it would have worked for me
I was really hoping this would work for me. I am having a difficult time finding a protective vest that will fit.According to most measurement charts for the various brands, I am a small in the waist but a large in the chest. It seems as though most protective vests are made to fit men. I have already tried an Aerowear (couldn't breathe in it) and a Tipperary eventing vest, which really ran large and felt like no protection at all. This vest was substantial, comfortable, and fit great, except for the spine length. I knew when I ordered it that it might not work. It was so long in back I could sit on it. I really wish they made it in a short. If the length will work fine for you I think you will be very pleased with this vest.Unfortunately I had to return it. The quest continues.

NOT HAPPY! IN FACT, PRETTY SAD.
After taking a nasty fall in December, 2017, fracturing two vertebra, I made a commitment to myself to always wear a protection vest for future rides. I purchased this one in purple as it had the highest safety rating (also the most expensive). Over the course of a few weeks, the zipper came undone three times so I sent it back, ordering a replacement. I've had the replacement for a few weeks and today, the zipper came undone on the new vest! (It opens from the bottom up while riding). Further, I learned that my friend, who ordered this same vest in black, had her zipper come apart the other day as well! To top it off, I was reading the Q & A for this vest and noticed some comments about broken zippers (so this is apparently an ongoing problem they have not resolved). The response states, "Thanks for your question! Many boot and shoe repair places or seamstresses can easily replace any kind of zipper, however there is no guarantee for the zipper on this vest." WHAT???? No guarantee for the zipper???? For a PROTECTION vest?
I have spoken to the Smartpak people several times about the issue with both vests and they have been very helpful stating they are reporting this problem with Tipperary and they suggested I try another brand which I will do sadly, as I've gotten used to the feel of this vest and feel otherwise protected by it.

I have worn my vest about 4 times now and I am really pleased with how comfortable it is to wear, and easy to put on also!!

Comfort is only "Pro"
This vest is about $100 more than the USG "Flexi" series and not as highly rated. But, it's not as bulky and it's more comfortable. When ASTM tests their vests, they test up to 24.5 joules of kinetic energy, whereas BETA 3 testing uses 35-45 joules. So, the BETA Level 3 testing is higher. I went with the USG Flexi vest, which also happens to come in brown which looks quite chic with my brown field boots and brown helmet ;-)
