Which rugs fit best for cobs/ heavier types?

[1abs]

Need to stock up on winter T/O and stable rugs for the cob, which brands fit cobs best? Always liked the Amigos on my TB but suspecting they may be slightly too snug on the new boy!

My Sec D is a real chunky boy. (Very wide). I've tried loads of different rugs over the years and the best fit I've found for him are actually Amigo rugs! They're quite deep so don't end up short on his belly and the neck fastenings provide plenty of room for his broad shoulders without gaping at the front and letting water in like some others have. I think the reason they're fine for both narrow and wide is that the neck opening comes quite a way above the withers. I also have an Amigo Pony for my Sec A this year. (Total opposite, very narrow chest and shoulders). When I tried it on, ut seemed to fit well but haven't put it on to turn him out yet as he's like a furry teddy and it's still a bit early for rugs for him so don't know yet how well it will fare in the rain for him.

Love the Gallop rugs for my cob, lovely and roomy and also a nice depth....my boy usually looks like he's wearing a mini skirt! Their combo rugs are the only ones that fit his thick neck comfortably. Very good price as well!

Our big boy (Belgian draft) goes very well in a amigo xl! He is very broad chested and fits him very well!

I have bought Marc Todd rugs for mine , they fit him well and have lots of room in the chest and lots of adjustment scope in the straps

Shires and amigo seem to fit very well for my cob. Avoid mastas

PE rugs suit really well
