Learning About Rambo Rugs From Horseware Of Ireland

By Jaclyn Hurley


Learning about Rambo rugs is like going back to school - or maybe forward to school, since the science of keeping horses warm/dry/fly-free is always advancing. There's a lot more to learn than how to throw the blanket over the horse and buckle up the straps. However, there's a short cut for those who want it. Customer reviews help when you're trying to find the best way to invest your money and get a good return.

Say you want to learn it all. Well, get a bottle of water and maybe a Hero sandwich and settle down to your computer. This may take a while. Start by searching for Horseware of Ireland, the originator of these industry-leading turnouts.

A product description for the Wug includes facts about nylon for outer durability, thermobonded fiberfill for more warmth with less weight, antibacterial and anti-static polyester inner lining, patented V-front closure, high-cut neck to relieve wither pressure, tail flap for added protection and tail cord for more security, and reflective strips for safety. Oh, yeah, leg arches for added freedom of movement, and the Wug isn't designed to be used with liners.

These are standard features on just one rug. You can continue on to other descriptions for light, medium, or heavy field blankets. Perhaps you're looking for a stable rug, a fly sheet, a Wug, a cooler, a travel blanket, an exercise rug, or a removable hood.

If you have a foal, you'll be glad to know that the folks at Horseware have figured out a way to get one blanket to fit perfectly throughout the growing stages of a baby horse. Ingenious Velcro fasteners make adjustments easy, and a wide belly band replaces straps that can tangle young legs. The streamlined look and wide color choice means that foals will look stylish out in the field.

You can rely on the design and durability of Rambos. After all, Tom and Carol McGuiness were the very first to achieve a truly warm, waterproof, breathing, well-fitting turnout - and thereby changed the industry forever. It used to be a real struggle to keep horses warm and dry at the same time. Waterproof coverings could become sweat baths, while warm woolens became soaked when it rained. Layers of cotton liner, wool blanket, and waterproof sheet were hard to keep in place.

Customers write about Rambos lasting eight years, even with horses that seemed determined to find every projection that could tear or every mudhole that could abrade the outer layer. Fortunately, there are ways to clean and re-waterproof turnouts, repair kits for sewing up tears, replacement hardware, and other aids to keeping a rug year after year.

You can take the time to really understand the options beforehand, using videos on fitting a blanket and customer reviews to help. You'll find that the folks at Horseware really know their stuff and truly want to give you and your horse what many consider to be the best gear in the industry.
