After a good training session or a trip in the trailer, you want your horse to be able to dry off calmly. This fleece rug with a hood ensures full coverage. The Velder Horsewear Essentials Fleece Rug Comfy with a Hood lays a light layer over the body and the neck, so that the spot where sweat often lingers longest also gets the chance to dry.

Material and use

The fleece is made of 100% polyester and lets air and moisture through instead of holding on to them. That way the coat dries evenly, while your horse still stands nicely covered. Use the rug after riding, during transport or on a cooler summer day in the stable. Because the neck piece is fixed, you put everything on in one go and don't have to fiddle with separate parts.

Fastening and fit

At the chest there is a double buckle fastening that you can easily set to the right length. Along the neck, two Velcro fastenings make sure the neck piece fits neatly and doesn't slip. Belly surcingles and two elastic leg straps keep this fleece rug with a hood in place, even when your horse has a roll. The tail cord keeps the back of the rug stable.

Cleaning and care

Beat and brush the rug out thoroughly first, that way most of the hair stays in the stable and not in the washing machine. Close the Velcro fastenings before washing to keep the fleece looking good. Let the rug dry in the open air and skip the fabric softener, so the fabric stays pleasantly breathable.
