When buying any rug for your horse to wear, fit is key, and should never be underestimated. If you’ve bought the most amazing rug with a whole range of features it could potentially cause more harm than good if it is ill fitting.
The good news is that it is not hard to achieve a good fit - here are Shires' top tips:
Measure your horse first. This can be done with a tape measure. Simply put one end of the tape in the centre of your horse’s chest and the other end on the horse's buttocks where you would expect the rug to finish.
Horse rugs are sized in centimetres, inches or feet and inches - make sure you check what size rug you are getting as a 66" will not fit a 6'6" horse.
When you've bought the rug, take it home and try it on your horse over a clean bedsheet or clean summer sheet - make sure you leave all the tags on. If the rug fits then remove the tags and use, if not, you might be able to return the rug as long as it is in a saleable condition.
A badly fitting rug will slip and could cause discomfort or even injury for the horse, and could result in damage to the rug itself.

I am re-purchasing these rugs but with separate necks. I have the same rugs in the combo range but I have found the neck fastening very tight on my Welsh cob. I always buy Shires rugs as they fit very well and don’t move about. My only criticism is the necks on the combo version are very tight.
