Wicking rugs

[FAYEFUDGE]

Please recommend me a wicking rug to help with drying time after a bath/heavy rain.
Thank you

I find any polar fleece wicking

I have a Rambo Airmax which is really nice and light.

Ruggles are fantastic

You can't get much better than a Thermatex imo - more of a winter option though

There's a thermatex summer knit as well as the original. There's a good Facebook group for bargains. Thermatex equestrian buy and sell group

My thermatex is definitely the best wicking rug, but picks up a lot of bedding. At this time of year I really rate my Horseware DriRug. It has a fold away neck cover so when my grey pony rolls after a bath he stays clean, but dries well if I leave it on overnight in his stable after a bath.

Dri rugs are great, and don’t pick up bedding. They have a detachable neck cover. My top choice for summer.

You can’t beat a thermatex for use in the stable in cooler weather on a horse which hasn’t been clipped.

The Horseware Airmax liner can be popped on under a turnout if you want to turn a wet horse straight back out.

I just hang my thermatex over the door of the stable and brush it with a dandy brush, the bedding comes right off.

Decathalon microfibre drying rug, cheap and it knocks socks off my thermatex for drying speed.

I can bathe daughter’s shaggy pony in winter and she’ll be dry by the time we leave!

I leaf blow my rugs

I leaf blow my rugs

That's actually a great idea as we 'sweep' with a leaf blower at the yard.....

Everything gets a blast from it at my place its highly addictive

Another vote for Thermatex, I use my summer weight more than the original weight.

But, if you want a cheaper option I can highly recommend the Rhinegold version. I bought mine as a spare to use day to day in winter (I confess I didn't my Thermatex to get muddy under a T/O rug) & I really rate it

I really rate the premier equine buster waffle cooler, it seems to dry them off v quickly!

I have this in a bright coral, its like weird chamois leather material and sucks the water off them quicker than anything else I've ever used.

I have an airmax rug as well which is brilliant under turnouts.

I don't even have a horse anymore and really need to get a grip and sell this stuff
