Velder Horsewear Sweet Itch Hoody

For horses that need extra protection during the insect season, a close-fitting sweet itch rug is essential. The Velder Horsewear Sweet Itch Hoody is made from strong 1000D polyester with a dense weave, which keeps out even the smallest insects. The rug gives extensive body coverage from crest to tail, and the easyclip chest closures make putting it on and taking it off quick and simple.

Maximum coverage, minimal hindrance

This sweet itch rug with neck covers the whole body, including the mane and tail. The shaped ear openings keep the neck piece in place without limiting freedom of movement: a clever detail that makes a difference every day, even when your horse spends hours with its head down. The extended belly flap with hook and loop fastening covers the belly area, a spot where flies like to settle.

Comfort all day long

For horses that wear the rug all day, comfort matters just as much as protection. The smooth lining at the shoulders, mane and tail keeps rubbing and chafing to a minimum in exactly those places where the fabric moves the most. The three adjustable straight surcingles give a stable and personal fit, while the large tail flap keeps the base of the tail covered as well.
