Alternative cheaper rugs for large horses

[Hovis_and_SidsMum]

Hovis is a big lad in his shoulders and chest so as a result I tend to buy him Masta or Fal rugs to get them to fit. Which are tres expensive considering him and his field mates have great fun rug trashing.
Can anyone recommend any of the cheaper brands that will still fit The Destroyers huge shoulders and chest?

I have a big lad too and find that Weatherbeater rugs fit him very well and are quite hard to trash.The Orion combo heavyweight is a brilliant rug as is the half neck.

Weathabeeta rugs fit our large hairy cob and my 17h chunky irish draught. I've just bought a lightweight turnout for about £38.

Fal & Masta aren't big enough for my two huge hairies (17.2 & 17.3 heavy draft horses). Weatherbeeta fit pretty well (the ones with the darts at the shoulders) and equestrian clearance have got some clearance stock for big boys and girls at the moment. Just bought my new Clydesdale a turn out rug, stable rug & fleece all for under £80 which I think is a bargain

Fals, Weatherbeeta Oricans and Mark Todd all fit my cob. I have a Premier Equine rug but he's never worn it.
Personally I would stick with Fal and Premier Equine as mine is a destroyer too. I also like the look of the Pessoa rugs (the 1600 denier ones) but haven't brought one as the colours are too girly

get the rugs you like now but get last seasons colours from equestrian clearance - problem and wallet solved!
