Material and Construction

The outer shell is constructed from 1680-denier triple weave herringbone fabric - a high-tenacity weave that resists tearing, abrasion, and puncture under the demands of daily pasture turnout. The 360-gram Thermo Manager fill is a lightweight insulation designed to trap body heat efficiently without the weight and stiffness of heavier fills. The inner lining is smooth for easy on and off and to minimize coat friction. The detachable neck cover attaches securely and aligns with the blanket's waterproof construction for consistent coverage. Hardware includes Clozease front closures, adjustable rear leg straps, and a tail flap for complete coverage.

Usage and Fit Guidance

Measure your horse from the center of the chest to the center of the tail to determine the correct blanket size. Sizes available: 69, 72, 75, 78, 84, and 87. Attach the neck cover for extreme cold or precipitation; remove for milder days. Adjust rear leg straps to allow two to three fingers of clearance to prevent rubbing. Check fit and blanket condition daily. Remove periodically to inspect skin and coat condition and allow the horse to move freely without the blanket.

Functional Use - Heavy Weight Turnout Blanket

At 360 grams of insulation, this blanket is designed for extreme cold weather turnout - temperatures well below freezing, heavy snow, freezing rain, and sustained cold snaps. It is particularly well-suited for clipped horses that have lost their natural coat insulation, senior horses with reduced ability to regulate body temperature, and horses in cold northern climates where winter conditions are prolonged and severe.

Safety, Usage, and Care Guidance

• Remove daily to check the horse's skin, coat, and overall condition
• Inspect closures, leg straps, and stitching regularly for wear or damage
• Repair any tears promptly to maintain waterproof integrity
• Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle using a blanket-safe detergent
• Air dry or tumble dry on no heat - do not use high heat
• Store clean and fully dry during the off-season to prevent mildew and material degradation
