Product Information

Full details

The LeMieux Arika Check Turnout Rug is an ideal solution for horse owners seeking reliable, everyday weather protection for their horses during turnout. It provides a robust waterproof barrier and essential breathability, ensuring comfort in unpredictable conditions. While it offers excellent durability and layering flexibility, owners should note that the 600 Denier shell is designed for general turnout and may require extra caution in fields with abrasive fencing or very rough terrain.

FAQs

Is this rug suitable for winter use?

Yes, it is suitable for winter when combined with compatible Arika liners to increase the insulation level.

Can I machine wash this rug?

It is recommended to follow the care label specifically, but generally, professional cleaning is safer for the waterproof membrane.

What is the Denier rating?

The rug features a 600 Denier ripstop outer shell.

Does it come with a neck cover?

The base turnout rug comes as described; please check specific packaging for included accessories.

How do I know which size to buy?

Measure from the center of the chest to the center of the tail to find your horse's appropriate size in centimeters or feet.

Troubleshooting

Rug slipping or sliding to one side

Check that the belly surcingles are adjusted evenly and the fillet strap is tight enough to keep the rug centered.

Moisture buildup inside the rug

Ensure the horse is dry before rugging and check that the ambient temperature has not exceeded the rug's thermal comfort range for the horse's clipping status.

Liner not staying in place

Verify that all attachment clips/velcro tabs are securely fastened to the corresponding points inside the turnout shell.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile layering system via Arika liner compatibility
  • Effective waterproof protection for wet weather
  • Breathable material prevents sweat buildup
  • Distinctive and stylish Heritage check pattern
  • Easy-to-use secure fitting points

Cons

  • 600D ripstop is durable but less tear-resistant than higher denier options
  • Requires separate purchase of liners for cold weather expansion
  • Brown colorway may show dust/mud more visibly than darker tones

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the rug, place it gently over the horse's back, aligning the front fastenings first before securing the belly surcingles. Ensure the surcingles have a hand's width of space to allow for safe movement.

Compatibility: This rug is specifically compatible with the LeMieux Arika rug liner system. Ensure that any liners used are correctly aligned with the attachment points located inside the neck and rear of the rug.

Care Instructions: To maintain the waterproof coating, avoid harsh detergents and refrain from high-heat tumble drying. Ideally, hose off dried mud and use a professional rug cleaning service if deep cleaning is required. Re-proof the outer shell periodically using an appropriate waterproofing spray to maintain the 3000mm rating.
