This no fill Lightweight Turnout rug is designed to keep your horse dry without overheating, making it the perfect rug for light rain and drizzle in Spring, Summer and early Autumn. The Shower-proof breathable outer has your horse covered in both the heat and mild wet weather, and the shoulder pleats ensure maximum comfort.
The tail flap also provides good coverage to ensure the top part of the tail is protected from the light rain and winds. Elasticated leg straps great way of keeping the back quarter of the rug securely in place covering the quarters of the horse, but in the event of an accident these will safely breakaway.
An excellent everyday rug that is an essential part of your horse’s spring/summer wardrobe or even as a top rug during the winter months to keep your heavier rugs clean.
This rug is suitable for light, infrequent rain when used on its own during the warmer months, but as with any Lightweight that doesn’t have a filling, is not suitable for heavy downpours or prolonged periods of heavy rain and high winds.
Although we state that our Lightweight turnout rugs are showerproof, the matierials used are certified waterproof. Whilst water will not penetrate the material itself, due to strong winds or heavy rain, water can get up under the light rug, or run down the horses neck under the rug, and so it would be deceptive to label the rug as completely waterproof.
