Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this rug be used for turnout?

No, this is a fleece rug designed for indoor use, stable wear, or travel. It is not waterproof.

Is it safe to wash this in a standard washing machine?

Yes, provided your machine has a large enough drum to accommodate the size of the rug.

Will this help a horse dry after a bath?

Yes, the fleece is designed to wick moisture away from the coat, significantly speeding up the drying process.

What is the purpose of the fillet string?

The fillet string helps keep the rear of the rug in place so it does not blow over the horse's back in a draft.

Can I leave this on the horse overnight?

It is suitable for stable use overnight, provided the horse is in a sheltered environment and the rug fits correctly.

Troubleshooting

The rug keeps slipping to one side

Check that the surcingles are adjusted to the correct length and the fillet string is properly attached.

The chest fastenings feel too loose

Verify the t-clip is locked securely into the appropriate hole and adjust the chest straps if the design allows.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking capabilities for quick drying
  • Soft, comfortable fleece material
  • Machine washable for simple maintenance
  • Secure fastenings prevent shifting
  • Highly versatile for stable, travel, or post-exercise use

Cons

  • Not suitable for outdoor turnout use
  • Fleece material can attract hay or bedding straw
  • Standard neck design may not suit horses requiring neck coverage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To secure the rug, start by fastening the t-clip chest buckles, ensuring they are snug but not restrictive. Once closed, adjust the crossed surcingles under the horse's belly so that you can fit a hand's width between the strap and the horse. Finally, loop the fillet string under the tail to keep the back of the rug from lifting.

For care, remove excess hair or debris with a soft brush before washing. The rug is machine washable; use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent designed for equine equipment. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive heat during drying, as this may degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the fleece.
