I've got one of these rugs for our connie and it doesn't rub. I also use the saxon rugs (http://www.equestrianclearance.com/_various_suppliers/economy_standard_turnout_rugs/index.html) on my fell and I've found them to be excellent. They haven't rubbed and have lasted me for years. Although I've never used a combo one, only used the standard.
 
I stick with Mark Todd rugs for my cob - and other horses. They always seem to me to be the only firm who know what shape a horse is - particularly a cob - and yes, they have shoulder darts. I bought my m/w cob girl a new MT rain rug this winter and I'm thrilled with it. Well made and with plenty of space and two sets of chest fastenings.

the other one you linked is the other one i have in my basket! Thanks (:
I like the look of Swish but the one i wanted is out of stock and cant afford £50 on a rainsheet atm.
 
I find saxon rugs to be very skimpy on my cob, weatherbeeta, shires and Mark Todd are far more generous, she is quite chunky tho, hope this helps
 
I've got a uber chunky trad cob and he's in a castle lightweight, cannot rate it enough! Had two winters in it and he'll be getting a new one for next winter as he needs a bigger size
