Full details

FAQs
Is this rug suitable for winter use?
No, this is a 0g lite rug designed for mild temperatures. It does not provide the thermal insulation required for winter.
Can I machine wash this rug?
It is recommended to follow the care label. Generally, professional rug cleaning services are preferred to maintain the waterproof membrane.
Are the leg straps removable?
Yes, the leg straps are both adjustable and removable depending on your preference and your horse's needs.
Does this rug come with a neck cover?
Yes, it is a combo neck design, meaning the neck cover is permanently attached to the main body of the rug.
What does 1200 denier mean?
The denier count refers to the thickness of the fabric fibers. A 1200 denier rating indicates a high-strength, durable fabric that is very resistant to tears.
Troubleshooting
Rug sliding backward
Check that the chest buckles are securely fastened and adjusted correctly for the horse's build.
Waterproofing seems less effective
The waterproof coating may need to be refreshed with a professional equine rug reproofing spray after deep cleaning.
Surcingles hanging too low
Adjust the surcingles to ensure there is only a hand's width of space between the straps and the horse's belly.
Pros and Cons

- High-strength 1200 denier fabric resists rips and tears
- Combo neck design provides full-body protection from rain
- Smooth lining prevents coat rubbing
- Highly breathable for active horses in mild weather
Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, measure your horse from the center of the chest to the middle of the tail. When fitting the rug, start by securing the chest buckles first, followed by the low cross surcingles, and finally the leg straps. Ensure the surcingles have enough room for about a hand's width between the straps and the horse's belly. To care for your WeatherBeeta rug, remove excess dried mud with a soft brush. If the rug requires a thorough cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh detergents that can degrade the waterproof coating. Always allow the rug to air dry completely in a shaded area before storing it to prevent mold growth.
