lidl rugs sizing?

[blood_magik]

can any1 shed any light on the sizing of the fleece and summer sheet from lidl?

do they have various sizes? the website only shows one size - 155cms which i worked out as 5ft. my horse is between 6ft and 6'3 depending on the make.

seems to good to miss out on the summer sheet would be perfect for walking off at shows

Only one size as far as my mum could see - I have a 14.2hh p/l in a 5'9'' and the owner also has a 16.2hh (not sure about her) so my mum just picked two rugs up - she said they were both the same size but looked far too big for 155cm! We went off the principal that they must fit one of the girls and for a fiver... if not, someone on the yard would prob buy them off us! ETA - these were the summer sheets we bought, not the fleeces

The fleece is only just too small for my girl who has a 6' normally

Here she is in the fly rug:

I bought a fleece (135cm) and it fits my pony who wears 5'6 - 5'9 rugs.

I also bought a summer sheet (155cm) - will try it on my horse tomorrow who is in 6ft rugs.

If I remember rightly they quote the measurement of the centre back seam, ie from withers to tail as opposed to our normal sizing which is from the centre of the chest to tail.

The fleeces are all one size 135cm (measured along the back seam). These rugs are 5'9". The summer sheets are all 155cm (measured along the back). These are 6'6". Hope this helps.

I bought the 155cm ones (it's the seam across the back that measures that) and they all fit my 2 6'6" boys perfectly.

thanks guys,
think i'll head to my local one tomorrow and get a few summer sheets - at a few quid it wont really matter if he ruins it (which he seems to do very well - just had to get his heavy turnout, light turnout and fleece repaired )
