Quick rug sizing Q

[chestnut cob]

Just a quick Q...

Looking at HW rugs for this winter. I really like Swish Equestrian rugs as they suit horse v well. I have the red T/O in both 75g and 200g, both 6ft. The 75g is a perfect fit but the 200g looks slightly too short. A little snug on shoulders and a little short at the back. Given the HW will have even more filling, would you go for the 6ft3? I'm thinking the bigger size would be the best one to go for.

I don't have Swish rugs, but from your description it sounds like the 6ft3 heavyweight should fit better than the 6ft. Are they very adjustable at the front? If yes, then I'd definitely take the chance on the bigger size.

Yes, they have a buckle and fairly long strap rather than T-bar type fastening (like Amigo rugs have). Thanks, think you're right and the bigger size will be the better option.

Have you measured him? Is he a big 6ft or small 6ft 3ins - better to slightly swamp him than have a bum freezer lol
