Horse Turnout Rugs

All-Weather Protection

Turnout rugs are designed to withstand the elements, keeping your horse dry and comfortable whether in light drizzle or heavy rain. Waterproof outer shells and breathable linings ensure protection from the weather while allowing excess heat and moisture to escape. This balance helps prevent overheating and keeps your horse’s coat healthy throughout the year.

Lightweight, Medium, and Heavyweight Options

Our turnout rug collection includes options for every season. Lightweight rugs, such as the Bridleway Ontario 50g Combo Turnout Rug, are perfect for mild weather or clipped horses that need a little coverage. Medium-weight rugs like the Gallop Trojan 200g Combo Turnout Rug offer warmth during cooler months, while heavyweight designs such as the Bridleway Ontario 300g Combo Turnout Rug provide maximum insulation against winter cold. Each rug is crafted with comfort, security, and durability in mind.

Fit and Comfort

A well-fitted turnout rug is essential for freedom of movement and all-day comfort. Adjustable chest straps, cross surcingles, and tail flaps ensure a secure fit while preventing rubbing or slipping. Features like shoulder gussets allow natural movement, and smooth linings reduce friction against the coat. Combo styles offer integrated neck covers for added warmth and weather protection.

Durability and Quality Construction

Made from high-denier, tear-resistant materials, turnout rugs are built to handle daily use and outdoor wear. Reinforced stitching and quality hardware make them a dependable choice for active horses and challenging weather. Regular maintenance — washing and reproofing when needed — ensures your rug continues to perform season after season.

FAQs

What’s the difference between turnout and stable rugs? Turnout rugs are waterproof and suitable for outdoor use, while stable rugs are designed for indoor warmth only.

How do I know which weight to choose? Match rug weight to temperature, your horse’s coat condition, and activity level — lighter in mild weather, heavier in winter.

How should I clean a turnout rug? Use a specialist rug wash and reproofing treatment to maintain waterproofing and breathability.

Can I use a turnout rug indoors? Yes, but they’re less breathable than stable rugs, so lighter layers are usually better for stabled horses.
