Most of Australia is known for being ultra dry. However, where there is desert there are life threatening rainstorms as well. The horseman enduring these two drastically different conditions needed a coat that was light and simple. Thus the Oilskin Drover coat was designed and named for the these horse riding nomads, more commonly known as Drovers.
The RideAbout Youth Drover gives those young nomads the protection and style they need when trying to live up to their heroes in the desert.
RideAbout stays with tradition. Once a good Oilskin coat is designed why mess with it. RideAbout feels that this is why they make Americas fastest growing line of oilskin coats.
