FAQs

Is this rug waterproof?

No, the Rastrick V2 is a stable rug and is not designed to be waterproof or weather-resistant for outdoor use.

What does the 200g rating mean?

The 200g rating refers to the weight of the polyfill insulation, providing a medium level of warmth suitable for cool to cold stable temperatures.

Can I use this for turnout?

It is not recommended, as the material is not designed for the rigors of outdoor turnout or harsh weather conditions.

How should I store the rug during summer?

Clean the rug thoroughly, allow it to dry completely, and store it in a breathable rug bag in a cool, dry place.

Are the chest clips durable?

Yes, the flat T-clips are designed for longevity and easy use, providing a secure closure that lays flat against the horse.

Troubleshooting

The rug is slipping to one side.

Check that the crossed surcingles are adjusted evenly and are not too loose.

Rubbing observed at the chest.

Adjust the T-clip sliders to provide more room at the neck or check for hair buildup on the Velcro.

Fillet strap is dirty.

Because the strap is PVC-coated, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Improved 2024 fit provides better shape retention
  • Pressure-relieving design protects the wither area
  • High-quality aesthetic with Whitaker-branded hardware
  • Easy to clean due to PVC-coated strap
  • Secure triple-fastening chest system

Cons

  • Not suitable for outdoor turnout
  • Specific 200g weight may be too warm for mild autumn nights
  • Requires careful storage to maintain the loft of the polyfill

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, first attach the chest fastenings at your horse's preferred setting before adjusting the surcingles to ensure they sit comfortably across the mid-section. Always ensure the fillet strap is secure to keep the rug from lifting in drafty barns. For care, gently brush off loose stable debris daily. To deep clean, use a soft brush and lukewarm water. Avoid machine washing unless specifically recommended, as heavy agitation can damage the quilt structure and polyfill integrity. Store in a dry, ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
