Roma stretch rug ..any good??

[MANDM]

As heading as anyone got one or something similiar?
I use lightweight under rugs as an extra layer but they are not easy to wash when they have metal buckles etc (b-----s up the washing machine).Plus they get very wet and muddy where they hang down even if they are shorter that his top rug. My horse is a 17hh wbxtb so wondered if the large size they do will in fact be large enough?

Hi

I got the large for my 15.3 and it was far too small. Although it is stretchy it was absolutely skin tight. I took it back and got a refund. I doubt very much that it would fit a 17hh but, my lad is quite chunky so I suppose it's possible if yours if lightweight. Are you able to get your money back if you buy it and try it on?

Thanks for your response ..But no my boy is very large being a warmblood cross ..so I will have to rule out that idea

Agree the sizes are small. Medium on my 15h was too tight its in my locker doing nothing. Good price but not sure size is ok for your big chap.

No. Stretchy rugs dont seem to work. I have a Roma one and another lycra rug. Both were the correct size but stretch right back so its uncomfortable. I have 2 for sale as a result
