My boy is in need of a few new ones for next winter, a couple of m/w (as I've been using a l/w with a fleece :redface:) and a heavy weight (not too heavy though, no neck please)

Anyone had any really good rugs? Anyone want to do a bit of horsey shopping and pick out something good for him (not too expensive, but I seem to go for cheap and that means they break within weeks!)

He's a tubby 5ft9 incase anyone's got any old ones they want to get rid of :happy: but mainly just wondering which makes fit best, are strong, don't rub to much and will keep him cosy.

Thankyou
 
My porky pair don't really need rugs - but in the past for our old tb - we had quite a selectionlol!
Storm has a Requisite (Robinsons own brand) Dotty print turnout - very lightweight but tbh one of the only rugs that has actually fit her! Good price too.
Joe had a selection of really expensive turnout rugs ranging from GFS to Masta to lord only knows what!!!! He loved the neck pieces.
I would say have a look in the Robinsons book, I can generally find what I'm looking for rug wise in there.
ARe you after stable rugs / fleeces? I have a Shires one that has been excellent quality and lasted such a long time.
 
Despite the belly my horse gets quite cold, he grows a bit of a poo winter coat and the fields pretty open. I will have a look on robinsons now, thankyou. Don't need any stable rugs I'm afraid, I tend to be a mean mum and just leave him in his t/o at night. But thanks :happy:
 
I have been buying the derbyhouse rugs recently and for the price they are good value. They also have a huge sale on at the moment of all rug so you could pick yourself up a bargain. I have the watergate combo, used them this year and they did the job and for about £25 (what i paid last year) they are certainly a bargain!

Nothing wrong with staying in turnout? I only have two lw turnout, when cob needs lighter rug at night it will be one of these i use. Currently not rugged in stable in daytime, too warm
 
I like Derby House, Amigo and Premier Equine for Harvey but prefer Weatherbeeta for Ellie. A lot depends on the build of your horse and what shape they are too.
