How do I determine the correct size?
Measure your horse from the withers to the tail and refer to the Waldhausen sizing chart. Ensure a comfortable fit without restricting movement.
Can I use this rug in wet conditions?

Are the crossover straps adjustable?
Yes, the crossover straps are removable and adjustable to ensure a secure fit for your horse.
What is anti-pilling fleece?
Anti-pilling fleece is designed to resist the formation of small balls of fiber (pills) on the surface, maintaining the rug's appearance and functionality over time.
Can I use the rug for travel?

Troubleshooting
Rug doesn't seem to absorb sweat effectively.
Ensure the rug is the correct size for your horse. Check for any damage to the fleece that might be affecting absorption. Wash the rug according to care instructions, as dirt can reduce absorbency.
Straps come undone.
Ensure straps are correctly fastened and adjusted. Check the buckles for wear and tear; replace if necessary.
The fur collar appears matted.
Gently brush the fur collar with a soft brush to restore its appearance. Avoid harsh brushing that could damage the fibers.
