What Size Horse Rug do I need?

When deciding on which size Horse rug to purchase measure an existing Horse rug that fits well, when possible. Lay it flat on the ground and measure from the front edge, along the side to the back edge. Alternatively, measure from the centre of the horses chest to a line vertical with the top of the tail.

Modern fabrics are very waterproof, however, Horses may sweat up inside rugs if they are too warm and cause dampness on the inside. Also in heavy rain, water may run inside the neckline or through stitch ares such as binding and cross surcingles. To minimise problems with Horse rugs waterproof your rugs every season.
