Can anyone help me find/recommend an under rug?

[lindsayH]

Having spent all day picking the hair and cleaning the grease off the inside of all my turnout rugs, I've decided an under rug/liner is the way to go! However, I've had a hunt round and can't seem to find what I'm after. Can anyone help? It needs to be thin as I don't want to add any heat so quilted ones are out. I'm not a fan of fleece and I think a waffle rug will be too warm. I have seen a couple of all purpose cooler type things that might do but they were waaaay too much money. I was just thinking of a cotton lining sheet type thing, but I'm worried a summer sheet will not sit well/rub under a turnout. Does anyone know of a rug purpose made for the job that is chuck-in-washing-machineable?
Thank you!

I use no fill summer sheets under my turnouts so they can be easily washed when they get too dirty and help keep him clean. One is an Amigo and the other is a Gallop, neither of them rub as they have slippery fabric underneath

I use Weatherbeeta cotton summer sheets under mine.

I know it's quilted but the horse wear 100g liners are the best by far.
Don't move, rub, goes in the washer and only takes a few hours on the back of a door to dry.

Plus I got mine for £25 for ride away (last year mind) so much cheaper then others.

I find that summer sheets slip very easily, causing rubs, so I stay well clear and ESP fleece ones

I use Shires cotton sheets under all my rugs. I think they now call then a Dunlogan rug though. Mine have lasted really well, had them about 4years now.

I have a Mark todd stable sheet and a Masta under rug with neck but out of the two I prefer my Horseware 100g liner.

Thanks guys! You'd think SOMEONE would make something for the job wouldn't you?? I think even 100g filling is going to be too heavy, the horses in question are real toughies, live out all year and aren't clipped. They only really have rugs on to keep the rain off and keep them clean. Mixed opinions about summer sheets, maybe I'll just have to give them a try. I'm a bit reluctant to fork out for £60 worth of summer sheets that I won't use for anything else if they're going to slip/rub/get wet though!
I really appreciate all your thoughts.
