Product Information

Full details

The Mackey Shannon Air Cooler is a premium, multi-functional cooling rug designed for horse owners who prioritize efficient moisture management and comfort for their animals. Engineered with advanced 3D Air Mesh material, this cooler excels at wicking moisture away while maintaining optimal muscle temperature during transport, post-exercise recovery, or stable time. While it offers superior breathability and a secure fit, users should note that as a technical moisture-management garment, it is designed for cooling and drying rather than heavy-duty thermal insulation in extreme freezing conditions.

FAQs

Can I leave this cooler on in the stable overnight?

Yes, the breathable material is safe for stable use, provided the temperature is appropriate for the horse's comfort.

Does this rug provide warmth in winter?

It is designed primarily for moisture management and cooling. It provides light protection but is not a thermal winter blanket.

How do I determine the right size?

Measure your horse from the center of the chest to the rear of the hindquarters to select the appropriate length.

Is the mesh material durable?

The 3D Air Mesh is engineered for durability, but it should be handled with care to avoid snags on sharp objects or fencing.

Can the fillet string be removed?

Yes, the fillet string is designed to be adjustable or removable depending on your preference and the horse's needs.

Troubleshooting

The rug keeps slipping to one side.

Check that the cross-over belly straps are adjusted equally and the fillet string is properly attached to the back of the horse.

Signs of rubbing at the chest or shoulders.

Ensure the shoulder gussets are sitting correctly and verify that the front closures are not cinched too tightly.

Moisture is not wicking as expected.

Check the rug for excessive dirt or clogged mesh fibers; machine wash the item to clear the pores of the 3D Air Mesh.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking capabilities
  • Lightweight and breathable design
  • Allows for natural range of motion via shoulder gussets
  • Soft fleece protection at the wither area
  • Secure fit with adjustable straps

Cons

  • Not suitable for extreme winter weather insulation
  • Material requires careful washing to maintain mesh integrity
  • Light color may show stable dirt more easily

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a proper fit, start by placing the cooler over the horse's back and securing the front closures first. Adjust the Velcro overlay to keep the surcingles aligned before tightening the cross-over belly straps to a snug, but not restrictive, tension. Finally, attach the fillet string to prevent the rear of the rug from lifting in windy conditions. For care, it is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the mesh fabric. Always ensure the cooler is fully dry before storing it in a cool, ventilated area to prevent mildew buildup.
