Rugs with fluorescent strips

[susie2193]

Hi

Not really competition, but this is the only forum I read.

Whilst walking round the field in the dark last night looking for my daughters horse I remembered that many years ago she had a pony who had a rug with fluorescent strips on it and he was so much easier to find. Just wondering if any one knows if you can still get them, or I may resort to sewing my own on.

The Rambo rugs have them... some of the WB do too. Premier Equine as well.

Be more sensible to sew some on than buy new rugs... and you could make them a distinctive shape so you know it's your horse and not just someone with the same rug!

Hi there

I agree they are really handy. I bought my cob a Mark Todd Lightweight rug the other day, with the design below. Although I don't remember it being mentioned on the rug bag I got a nice surprise when I went to the field in the evening to check on him and the rest of the herd and could see him! There is a thin reflective piping all around the edge of the rug so he was easy to find!

I think some of the Rambo rugs have them also Bucas and Premier Equine.

PE, MT, Rambo, Swish all have refelctive if I remeber correctly, or most bike stores sell reflective tape you can put on

Premier Equine have excellent value rugs online and have last years colours reduced.
