Refrigiwear Life

December 30, 2019 by ~The South Dakota Cowgirl~ Leave a Comment

Refrigiwear is no joke, folks. Is it the warmest jacket I’ve ever put on? Absolutely. (use code JENN20 for 20% off everything through the new year)!

This post is sponsored by Refrigiwear. All opinions are 100 % honest and completely my own.  Frankly you’re all going to thank me (and them) once you don the gear – no lie friends! 

It’s no secret that people look to me to help them stay warm in the colder winter months.

I’ve worn, and own different brands of jackets and coats for various temperatures. And as much as I enjoy layering, I’d be lying if I said that layering when you go to ride your horses in the winter is handy. It’s not even a little bit handy. It’s hard to move your arms and be a functional rider if you’re looking like the kid in “A Christmas Story”! 

When I got this adorable coat from Refrigiwear I couldn’t wait to try it on! I’ve worn it in some pretty nasty wind, with only a tee-shirt on underneath and was perfectly content! That, my friends, is winning!

Now, the down and dirty:

I wouldn’t want to go fence in this jacket simply because I have awesome fencing skills and am always getting bloody when I fix fence.  Read: barbwire and this fabric wouldn’t mix…

But to ride all winter in the barn, outside, or at a barrel race — SIGN ME UP!

The coat is water-resistant, has three inside pockets, a removable hood and is rated to 10 degrees. In our riding barn, the temperature rarely gets below 20 degrees so I’d say, I’m pretty good to go, wouldn’t you? 

Skull caps are among my favorite head attire for colder months, and this one is no exception. It doesn’t make my head itch, and is warm.

Bottom line: I’ll be wearing this coat and cap for the foreseeable future! Refrigiwear Life is mine and I’m stoked.

Use code JENN20 when you shop! 

Spread the Love!

About ~The South Dakota Cowgirl~

Jenn Zeller is the creative mind and boss lady behind The South Dakota Cowgirl. She is an aspiring horsewoman, photographer, brilliant social media strategist and lover of all things western.

After a brief career in the investment world to support her horse habit (and satisfy her mother, who told her she had to have a “real” job after graduating college), she finally took the leap and stepped away from a regular income; trading the business suit once and for all for cowgirl boots, a hat, and jeans. She has not looked back.

When Jenn first moved to The DX Ranch on the South Dakota plains, she never imagined she’d find herself behind a camera lens capturing an authentic perspective of ranching, and sharing it with others. Jenn has always been called to artistry, and uses music, writing, images, home improvement, and her first true love of horses to express her ranching passion.

Horses are the constant thread and much of her work centers around using her unique style of writing to share her horsemanship journey with others in publications such as CavvySavvy, the AQHA Ranching Blog, the West River Eagle, the family ranch website, and her own website.

Using photography to illustrate her stories has created other opportunities -- Jenn’s brand “The South Dakota Cowgirl” has grown to the level of social media “Influencer”. This notoriety has led to work with Duluth Trading Company, Budweiser, Wyoming Tourism, Vice, Circle Z Ranch and Art of the Cowgirl, to name a few. She also serves as a brand ambassador for Woodchuck USA, Arenus Equine Health, Triple Crown Feed and Just Strong fitness apparel. Her photography has been featured by Instagram, Apple, TIME Magazine, The Huffington Post, and Oprah Magazine. Jenn’s work has been published internationally, has been seen in several books and has graced the covers of several magazines.

Jenn became a social media influencer by accident when she started to explore Instagram as a way to share her life on the ranch with folks that don’t get to experience it. It’s grown into an incredible platform that she uses to empower women, create an environment for self improvement and share life on the ranch.

When she’s not working, she loves to drink coffee, play with her naughty border collie named Copper, start ranch colts, and run about the country chasing cans. Her mother still thinks she doesn’t have a “real” job.
