only managed to get 1 stable rug:-(. sold out of all turnouts and the other sizes of stable rugs that I wanted. looked online and totally sold out there too :-(
 
I'm not sure I understand the rush on these. They didn't look that fab and most places you can find decent rugs for under £40 :-/
 
£19.99 for a stable rug and £34.99 for a turn out 200gms with full neck. they are good rugs and great value.
 
I bought the soft shell breeches.....really wish I hadn't.....they are the weirdest shape and really not comfy at all ...sigh

I looked at those and thought the material was a bit strange and considering they were £30 I gave them a miss, I prefer the £13 ones to be honest they are really comfortable and fit really well.

Take them back if your not happy they always say to me to keep the receipt at the till in case there is a problem.
 
I got the hi viz winter gloves and am pleased with them. The breeches looked very odd (bondage came to mind!) and I wasn't convinced they would wash well. I prefer the cotton jods they do, have had a couple of pairs of these and they have been great.
 
Plenty of rugs left in Atherstone Aldi! I'm a great believer in you get what you pay for, they are cheap rugs. Bought some gloves but head collars, clothing were good value for the money but personally I'd prefer bit better quality ( not posh or money to burn by any means), buy cheap buy twice!
Lots of online retailers have rugs sales currently and not much more expensive for better quality, may be worth a look.
 
Nearly bought a stable rug today for £19.99 but managed to resist, but some stock available in Asby dela Zouch today. Did buy a head collar though for £3.99. Full size and much too big for my lad who normally takes a Full. Nothing wrong with it for a basic spare. (Gave it away at the yard this afternoon ..... sigh ....)
 
I got the only 6ft 9in stable rug left and for 20 quid I can't complain. It fits fine and looks quite good and she is warm enough. Horse is a bit of rug trasher so a cheap rug is a blessing!
 
There were plenty of rugs in most sizes in our local store this afternoon. We got the last 2 pairs of medium gloves though. They are very warm.
Our local tack shop had a 6'9 turnout rugfor £25 before Christmas, it fits my Draft horse much better than some of the more expensive rugs.
 
Didnt think the Equestrian offer was as good as the last one. Did get the navy riding gilet for £14.99 which is nice. Got the petrol coloured one with the fur trimmed hood last time and that was lovely. Nothing really grabbed my attention this time really apart from the gilet and I ordered it online. Online service is brilliant if anyone uses it!

This is what I thought! They didn't look any better than Robinsons own brand rugs, and most of them are about 20 quid in the sale...

Not that I don't love ALDI, I'm not being a snob, I do my weekly shop there, but just didn't think these looked very good fit wise.

Well i bought one and it fits my lad beautifully. He is a 6ft6 but very deep so most rugs look like a mini skirt on him but this was nice and deep. Id actualy say its better quality than the derby house rug he was wearing which hasnt even lasted a season and all the buckles are falling off
 
I got a turnout rug for my boy and it fits lovely. He is 6ft 3in WBxTB and it fits his shoulder beautifully as my robinsons one has rubbed.
