Troubleshooting
The rug is slipping to one side
Check that the surcingles are adjusted evenly and the front buckles are not too loose.
Rubbing marks appearing on the horse's shoulders
Ensure the shoulder area is clean and that the rug is sized correctly to allow the gussets to function properly.
Waterproofing seems less effective
Clean the rug thoroughly and consider re-treating the outer shell with a manufacturer-approved waterproof re-proofer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure the twin front buckles are adjusted so the chest is snug but allows for freedom of movement. Always fasten the surcingles with enough room for a hand to pass between the strap and the horse's belly. The leg straps should be adjusted to prevent the back of the rug from shifting while ensuring they are not too tight. For care, it is recommended to hose off mud and debris regularly. If a deep clean is required, use specialized rug wash products and ensure the rug is completely air-dried before storage to prevent mold or fabric degradation. Always inspect the D-rings and buckle points for signs of wear before the start of the season.
