Rambo Wug?

[fredthoroughbred]

Does anyone have a heavy weight one? I bought a lovely one off ebay. It was advertised as a heavy weight but I think it feels more like a medium. Do these rugs generally feel lighter than mastas and weatherbeetas? The rug is second hand so I can't read the label

yes I think they do feel lighter but the filling inside is deff very well insulated. They squash downa bit with time also. Masta and weatherbeeta aren't great rugs and just seem to stuff them full with poor qaulity fill. My horses ahve always lived in their rambos and never had a problem.

Yes, they do feel lighter than you would expect. I have a MW which feels to me like a lightweight but it is very cosy. I did have a HW Wug which felt lighter than usual but they are very, very good rugs.

My heavy weight seemed to loose it puffness after the first winter but it's still super warm and the best fitting rug I have!

Thanks guys!! I'm glad that he isn't secretly freezing his bits off in the field. It fits like a dream and I did wonder if it had lost its puffy/cosy appeal after being washed. He does always seem to be toasty in it so hey ho

I disagree, my Weatherbeeta's are brilliant. I just flogged my Rambo Duo as it drove me insane and bought a Weatherbeeta Tristar which IMO is far superior!

I also just bought a Wug (cheap on Ebay!) for one of my ponies and it seems awfully thin so I was going to post the same question!! lol.

A heavy weight Rambo Wug is Purple and the medium weight is blue, so if its purple you are fine.

It is purple!! Yay!! I didn't know that...thankyou
