Sizing for Premier Equine rugs?

[JAK]

Do these come up small, big, what?
LBO wears a 5'6" Rambo Duo but a 5'3" Weatherbeeta, so which size would you go for with Premier Equine?
He is finely built, 13hh, a little tubby at the mo & rather long in the back!

I got my horse a 6'3'' fly rug he wears a 6'3'' weatherbeeta I'd say both were generous, so if your weatherbeeta is the best fitting go for the same size

Have a chat with them, they are really nice and know their products - and ship immediatley!

 

[JAK]

Right, probably 5'3" then I reckon!

I might give them a call too, I like the sound of 'ship immediately'! lol

My lad takes a 6'03" rug....but when I bought a fleece for him I could get away with a 6'00" from Premier Equine. I think their sizes are all very generous so I would go for one size down from what you would normally buy & then you should get the ideal fit.

same, my mare usually wears a 5'6" and the premier equine ones are definately generous. the fit is big everywhere so i'd also be tempted to get one size maller

brackens a 6ft in everything so i ordered her one in 6ft it very good fit! added piccie to show sorry piccie quality not great but this is the winter buster one!shes 15.2 as well!

iVe just bought a 6'3' sweet itch buster from them and its too big for my horse, all his other rugs are 6'3 and fit him fine.
Ive just rang them to ask if they would change it to a 6' and they have sold out

So yes the rugs are generous

ditto, i want to get another fleece next year for general use & will get a 6ft not 6ft 3"

Not sure about their turn out rugs but agree with others that their fleece rugs come up large.

 

[JAK]

They do look rather good I have to say!
Both ponies could do with a new fleece each as well & I have a good idea now of what sizes they'll need, so thanks very much for the advice!
It's so disappointing when things don't fit, as well as the hassle of sending them back or whatever!

I ordered one of the new smart fleece rugs, and it came up really small!!lovely though....

Have got the winter heavy weight and it comes up large my mare wears a 6ft 6 in every rug i have but could definately have got away with the 6ft 3 premier equine. IS a lovely rug though definately reccomend to anyone.

Depends, i bought a 6ft thermatex type from them and it fits my 63ft tb perfectly, however I've just purchased their fleeces and the 6ft3 fit my 5ft9 cob, the 6ft6 fits my 6/6ft3 cob and the 6ft9 fits my 6ft3 Tbx
