Taking Rambo Rugs 101 And Beyond

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.

If you really do want to put in the time, get ready for a long session. You might want to get a bottle of water and a snack. Start by searching Rambo turnouts and you'll get hundreds of retail sites, so begin with Horseware of Ireland. You can always come back to the retailers when you know what you want.

Product description for just one rug will be something like this: snug fit, superior warmth with less weight, layers of nylon outer, thermobonded fiberfill, and polyester antibacterial and anti-static inner lining, a patented V-front closure, high-cut neck for less wither pressure, tail cord and flap, reflective safety strips, and leg arches as standard features. Not compatible with liner systems.

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.

For fun, check out the foal blankets that 'grow' with the youngster. Velcro fasteners make getting a perfect fit easy no matter how fast the baby is growing in height and weight. The wide belly flap keeps the baby warm and snug without straps that might tangle delicate legs. If adult horses gain weight, there are chest expansions to allow a little more room.

Customer reviews can help a lot, if you just want to take Horseware's word for the fact that their products are the best on the market in design, materials, fit, durability, and appearance. After all, Tom and Carol McGuiness succeeded in making the first truly waterproof, breathable, well-fitting, and very warm turnout. Ever. It used to be hard to keep a horse warm and dry out in the field, without finding it drenched in sweat under the blanket, soaked by rain, or tangled in the straps and clips used in an attempt to keep everything 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.
