What is your favourite make of rug?

[Trekker]

Hi, just wondered what make of rug you prefer and why?

There seems to be so many brands!

Ive bought weatherbeeta rugs up to now..but have found that they rub on the mane area if they have a neck cover.

 

[Achinghips]

Premier Equine, hard wearing, long with big tail guards, don't rub, comfy fit, fab quality surcingles (thick and wide) and buckles are heavy duty, most come with detachable necks, lightweight even in a high gramme - wouldn't buy anything else!

Horseware, fit anything and stay put.

 

[Mrs B]

Used to be Horseware, no question. Until they got more expensive, less easy to get hold of and couldn't get a sensible answer out of head office.

Have now gone over to Premier Equine....

 

[Holly Hocks]

As per Kate - I love Horseware rugs. They seem to last for ever and are just such good quality. I can't stand Premier Equine though - just seem to fit my TBs badly....love their boots though....

What about Mark todd?
Im in te process of designing a new range of equestrian wear so this time next year i hope you all say my company!!!!!

 

[charlyan]

Premier Equine all the way. I also use Horseware a lot and have a couple of Shires and Weatherbeetas. All good rugs but for all over satisfaction, I would say PE rugs.

 

[Perrie]

Weatherbeeta all the way for my TB.
Fits & doesn't rub at all.

Def weatherbeata for my TBx mare - perfect fit for her, its all Ive bought for her for years.

So far Shires is the best for the pony

 

[WoopsiiD]

It was shires for ponies and horseware for the big chap. HW are expensive but I found that they lasted forever, sadly out lasted the big guy.

New Premier Equine rug is plenty long enough, but very restricting in front!! Rubbing his shoulders and doesn't look very comfortable at all.

Mark Todd they fit my boy perfectly. They are quite big round the shoulder though (which suited us!)

 

[Janah]

Castle rugs for me. Cheap and fit beautifully.

Another for horseware rugs, fit everything and don't slip at all

Another for horseware rugs, fit everything and don't slip at all

They don't fit either of mine! I use Fal mainly

 

[micramadam]

Premier Equine. All other rugs rubbed their shoulders and these are brilliant. Especially love the layering system as the weather here can be freezing cold one day and blazing hot the next.

Horseware, I love the V front closure bit, my pet hate is the top of the front of the rug (if that makes sense ) digging into their chest/bottom of neck when they put their heads down.

I also have a Falpro stable rug which i like.

 

[badgerdog]

I like Weatherbeeta, they're reasonably priced and they've always fit my horses well and not rubbed. I've tried others but always go back to them. I think some of the prices of the Fal and Horseware rugs are ridiculous, I couldn't justify paying over £200 for a rug when I can get a cheaper one with the same weight and strength which also fits my horse.

Horseware ireland

Brililant make - and everything lasts, unlike some other brands I know of, *cough*weatherbeeta*cough*

I still have the rambo wug I bought 12 years ago!
