As I'm planning on clipping the old pony very soon, I shall need a waterproof exercise sheet unfortunately... I have a blue Newmarket fleecey one which I love, and a hi viz 'polite' one which I hate as it's just too flappy and light.

It must be wrap around however not under the saddle as she's a wonderfully round little barrel so they usually make the saddle slip!
 
I have a Shires one which was originally Joe's but fits Storm okay - it doesn't go under the saddle but round it. Its lasted a long time, must have had it ten years!
 
I have a Masta quarter sheet that fits behind the saddle and attaches to girth straps. It has reflective strips and also a tail flap with a removable red light!

That looks good! I always thought quarter sheets had to attach to saddle at the D rings near the cantle too (which mine don't have) so always discounted them before. I like the idea of the light too for hacking out.

Shall look into shires too :)
 
I just brought a Luna rider one as it was the best price I found for a wrap around, waterproof, fleece lined one with lots of reflective bits, it's a nice cut and fits jess well.

I have the Lunar rider. Its a wrap around or ride on.

I would use clipped or not this time of year. Its gloomy round our lanes with light to dark areas.

Or there is this, but it wouldn't keep you dry?

They're both nice, luna rider one is out of stock, however neither are in 4ft3 which is what I'd need for Gem as she's so short backed. I could make do with a 4ft6 though if that was the smallest I could find.
 
The rug looks nice, I like that. Not keen on that strap though, I like the idea of it but wonder if it might be too much like the Pessoa strap and be a bit uncomfy for the horse?
 
The Mark Todd one is fantastic.

However I have a V-Bandz Quarter sheet and it is brilliant - doesn't budge and doesn't flap.
