Caught out in the trail in the middle of a storm, the only thing wet on me were my feet.  The are light enough to carry in a saddle bag without taking up too much space.  Carmel Oberdorfer, Norton, Ohio.

We work a lot of details.  The raincoats keep you dry and warm.  We love them very much!  Capt. Wayne Baker

Love my chaps. Easy to pack, easy on, easy off, very comfortable. Love ‘em. Julie, Northern Michigan

My friends and I rode the fall weekend of the monsoon in 2008.  It rained at “Elkless” Hill EVERY DAY ALL DAY!  My Muddy Creek coat and SSG Waterproof Gloves were a blessing.  I was dry after 3 days of non-stop rain.  I don’t know what I would have done without the coat and gloves.  Ingrid Brey, Grosse Pointe Park, MI

“I love my rain coat.  We wear our raincoats even when it’s not raining.  But we don’t call them “raincoats” we call them “waterproof riding coats” cause we wear them all the time whether it’s raining or not.”

Hi Nancy:
I recently ordered a long raincoat and absolutely love it. Shortly after receiving it, my area experienced  a downpour of rain. I grabbed my Muddy Creek Raingear to head out to the barn. Never have I been so completely dry while rounding up my horses! Although I have spent money on raincoats in the past, this is without a doubt the best investment that I have made.

I also want to express my appreciation for the time you took with me on the phone explaining about the construction of the coat as well as colors and sizes. Our society seems to have lost the customer service, but not at Muddy Creek. When we talked, you mentioned a new line of short raincoats that will be coming out the end of April beginning of May. Are they available? I just can’t wait to order the short one as well.

Thanks again for making the best riding gear available!
Sincerely,
Dr. Paula Love

“…I would recommend them to any riders. ” Muddy Creek rain gear is cool in hot weather, light weight, dry and large enough to wear jackets under if necessary. I would recommend them to any riders.”

Muddy Creek Raingear stood up to “the hardest test we ever put it through for our coats our horse and ourselves!” “It was the last Criss Cross of 2003, last half… riding out from Kalkaska, remember?  It started raining the night before and we waited in the rain, me and my friend Val and Aunt Lummy, pouring rain I remember.  We took refuge in the back of Dick Clark’s trailer since it was getting colder.  He loaned me one more layer to put on.  I went to saddle my sweet mare Miss and I pulled the blue tarp off our saddles and gear to find it was leaking, our saddles were wet.  DAMN!!! I HATE THAT!!!!   I walked up to her with my dripping saddle and she glared at me and said in no uncertain horse language, “YOU’RE KIDDING RIGHT, WE ARE NOT GOING TODAY, YOU KNOW I HATE THE RAIN, WHERE IS MY BARN? I THINK I MIGHT BITE YOU, GET AWAY FROM ME, WHERE IS MY BARN?????”

I told her it usually didn’t rain this hard for very long so it wouldn’t be that bad.  She didn’t bite me but she wanted to.  I saddled her and Junior and threw the leaky tarps over them and walked away from their glaring stares to wait for Bobe and the bus.

We made record time that day, Miss informed me that if she had to go that day we were going to “SLAP LEATHER AND GO LIKE HELL” which we did.  Who am I to argue with that reasoning?   I kept telling Val it usually doesn’t pour rain this hard for this many hours so it must be going to stop soon.  IT DIDN’T.  It literally poured all day until we got into camp then it quit.  We sang every song we could think of about rain and laughed and laughed about how much water was coming down for so many hours straight.
