Hi,
I'm considering buying a Rhinegold Torrent rug. Does anyone have one? Are they any good? If not can anyone recommend a suitable alternative lightweight (no fill), waterpoof, turnout rug at a reasonable price?
Thanks!
 
Thay arnt to bad but theres no velcro at the front in some of them so i find they rub

If you get one with velcro then it would be ok as long as your horse doesnt like to rip his rugs

Personally wouldnt bother with Rhinegold rugs. Amigo Summer liteweight turnouts were £29.50 last year and I was very impressed with mine. Does have velcro at the front and no filling as you want.
After that I like Weatherbeeta rugs, the Landa lite is good.
 
I personally like the Shires rugs - I have them in no fill, 100, 250 and 350 weights - very waterproof and for me, it is the generous neck and chest that is the key as I have a clydesdale and gypsy cob which are chunky types.

I have also used the Amigos and do have one that still fits Farra's neck. Very good rugs but if you have a horse with a big neck and chest, they can not fit so well or be too tight.

I also have used the Weatherbeetas and again, very good rugs, lasted well, waterproof and also more generous in the neck and chest than some other brands.
 
Weatherbeeta Landa Lites are great, my ponies have them on for a lot of the year and they wear really well. Weatherbeeta now also do a genero which is a cheaper version I think and they seem good as well.
 
iv had rhinegold rugs in the past and found them awful they leak aswell.iv also used weatherbeeta and found then not up to scratch either until i invested in a fal-pro and it has been the best turnout rug i have ever bought.got it quite cheap off e-bay and am really pleased with it,would definately buy another one:)
