Fitting
The ergonomic fit of this rug demonstrates Horseware’s ability to produce rugs that not only fit the contour of the horse’s body but move naturally with it, too. The rug is cut with front and hind arches, allowing for greater flexibility around the shoulder area and a closer fit to the horse’s middle.
The front disc fastening is a quick and easy way to attach the front of the rug without having to wrestle with mud filled buckles and gives for a good even surface distribution.
Filling
With a medium-weight filling (250g), this rug is ideal for those horses with a natural winter coat or a partial clip. The rug stood the test of time in a field full of youngsters who inevitably played all day long, and thanks to the 1200D outer, there are still no tears despite lots of playing and nibbling taking place!
Even in the wettest weather, this rug kept the horse warm and cosy. The polyester lining and fibrefill inner allow for a breathable layer between the horse and the climate, providing them with a waterproof yet breathable turnout rug.
When soaked following a good downpour, the rug wasn’t overly heavy on the horse’s body and dried easily when hung up or left on the horse for a swift turnout the following morning.
