Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this rug machine washable?

Yes, but use a specialized horse rug wash and wash on a cold, gentle cycle to preserve the waterproof membrane.

Can I use this rug in the summer?

No, the 200g fill is specifically designed for cool to cold conditions and will cause the horse to overheat in summer.

How do I measure my horse for this rug?

Measure from the center of the chest to the middle of the tail to find the correct length in feet and inches.

Is the neck cover included?

This is a standard turnout rug, which does not include an integrated neck cover.

What should I do if the tail cord breaks?

The tail cord is adjustable and replaceable; ensure you attach a suitable replacement to maintain the rug's position.

Troubleshooting

Rug slipping to one side

Check that the cross surcingles are adjusted evenly and snugly, and ensure the tail cord is properly attached.

Visible water penetration

The waterproof coating may be wearing thin; consider re-proofing with a technical equestrian wash-in treatment.

Excessive hair rub on the shoulders

Ensure the front closure is not too tight; you should be able to slide your hand comfortably between the rug and the horse's chest.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent balance of warmth and breathability
  • Waterproof material ensures dryness in wet weather
  • Smooth lining prevents hair breakage
  • Adjustable features offer a customizable fit

Cons

  • Standard neck design may not suit horses prone to rain-rot on the withers
  • Limited to specific temperature ranges due to fixed 200g fill
  • Polyester material requires regular cleaning to maintain breathability

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the rug, place it gently over the horse's back, aligning the front surcingles first before securing the cross surcingles under the belly. Ensure the surcingles are adjusted so that a hand's width can fit between the strap and the horse's belly for safety. When not in use, store the rug in a cool, dry place. To clean, brush off dried mud with a soft brush and hose down with cold water if necessary; avoid using harsh detergents that can degrade the waterproof coating. Ensure the rug is completely dry before storage to prevent mold or mildew growth.
