FAQs

Is this rug machine washable?

It is generally recommended to hand wash or hose down your turnout rug to preserve the integrity of the waterproof membrane.

What does 600D mean?

600D refers to the denier of the polyester, indicating the thickness and durability of the outer fabric layer.

Can I use this for a horse that lives outside 24/7?

Yes, it is designed for turnout, though it should be checked daily for signs of damage or shifting.

Does it come with leg straps?

This model utilizes a tail cord for security; check your specific packaging for any included accessories.

Is the neck removable?

This is a standard neck design and does not feature a removable neck cover.

What weather is 200g fill best for?

200g is a medium fill, ideal for cool to cold conditions, typically ranging from 0°C to 10°C depending on the horse's clipping and breed.

Troubleshooting

Rug slipping to one side

Check that the surcingle straps are adjusted evenly and snugly against the belly.

Water leaking through the fabric

Check for small tears or rips; re-proof the fabric with a dedicated turnout rug spray if necessary.

Rubbing at the shoulders

Ensure the front closure is not too tight and check that the rug size is appropriate for your horse's frame.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable outer material handles regular turnout wear.
  • Balanced warmth with 200g insulation for fluctuating temperatures.
  • Excellent breathability prevents the horse from getting clammy.
  • Reliable closure system ensures the rug stays in place.

Cons

  • Standard neck design offers less coverage than high-neck alternatives.
  • Requires proper sizing to ensure the front closure sits correctly.
  • Limited to medium weight, may not be sufficient for extreme winter lows.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your rug, place it on the horse carefully, securing the front closure first followed by the cross surcingles. Ensure the surcingles are adjusted so that a hand's width can fit between the strap and the horse's belly.

Care instructions:

  1. Brush off dried mud regularly to keep the fabric breathable.
  2. If the rug requires a deep clean, use a gentle hose down or sponge clean with cold water and approved rug detergent.
  3. Avoid using harsh soaps or high-pressure washers, as these can strip the waterproof coating.
  4. Always allow the rug to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area before storing.
