Suitable rugs for your horse in the cold months

Winter is here and at Steed & Style, we have made sure that you have all the suitable rugs to keep your horse warm in the cold months. We’re here to make sure that you have all the necessary gear for yourself and your horse for the coming cold months. You can trust our brands because we source them from reputable international companies and our rugs are locally available and easily accessible through our online store.

So, which suitable rugs should you have for winter? If you want to enjoy a good ride out in the field, then turnout rugs are the right gear for your horse. Apart from keeping your horse warm, they also keep your steed clean and dry. They’re versatile as well, since you can have material of varied thickness for each season. Our stable rugs are quilted or padded to wick away perspiration and keep your horse warm whilst stabled. As the name suggests though, stable rugs aren’t designed for outside use.

Did you know that every muscle is strengthened as pressure is exerted on it? That just means your horse can always do with a good exercise. In this case you should have exercise rugs, which must be breathable and if possible, have reflectors for safety. The good thing about these rugs is that they keep your horse warm and/or dry whilst being ridden.

After taking your horse through training, cooler rugs come in handy as your horse needs to cool down. They’re also breathable and prevent chills from sweating as the horse cools down.

Perhaps you want a travel rug, a light stable rug or an under rug? Then fleece rugs are just the thing for you. Like other rugs, they’re also breathable and warm. Another exceptional thing about them is that they make your horse look adorable!

Sometimes you may have a show that you want to attend. Show sheets, which are stylish and professional, will give your horse a unique personality. They’re suitable for travelling as well.

To keep your horse warm, dry and clean these cold months, you should have suitable rugs. They must be breathable, quilted or padded. Therapeutic rugs are also important as they aid in training or help with sore muscles after exercise.
