Trading as Dinky rugs. I've been using them for a while with my sec A and they are properly shaped to fit ponies and imo quite reasonably priced. What sort are you looking for?

Thank you! I think its a turnout rug for a aging shettie. Its on behalf of a friend who can't use HHO whilst at work (of not that I am...)

No problem. I have one of the lightweight combo turnouts (integrated hood) for my chap, he's grey so it's useful in the Autumn and Spring as it keeps him covered from head to tail. I've had it for probably 7-8 years now and it's really lasted. They do different weights so your friend could possibly look at something a bit thicker if the pony needs it. And the stable rugs are good as well. Just bought a heavier weight one this year, but the light weight one I've had again for quite a few years and still in really good condition.

Aside from Dinky I also use the rhino wug plus which again has gone on for years (albeit with a lot of patching where he used to go in the bramble patch!). But they tend to be more expensive, and I don't know how small they go - mine takes a 5'.

Hope that helps.
