We manufacture EquoIQ outdoor rugs 100 grams with neck rugs to last a long time and withstand many seasons in the pasture. That’s why we develop and design our rugs to fit all horse types – from noble individuals to large, rough horses.<\/p>\n
Thanks to this, you can optimally adapt the blanket to each horse, regardless of whether it has a narrow shoulder or large, long and wide shoulder blades.<\/p>\n
Specifically, the three D-rings 7cm apart on each side allow you to make a huge individual adjustment. In this way, you easily adjust the front part to the horse’s unique bow width. In total, you can adjust the circumference around the bow by almost 30 cm.
\nIn addition, you can take the cover off and on in an instant, because we have placed the buckles of the bow part on the side. <\/p>\n
In fact, veterinarians, equitherapists, equiopaths, osteopaths and masseurs are increasingly recommending our blankets. They particularly praise the anatomical design that gives the horse maximum freedom of movement. <\/p>\n
How to choose the right size:
\nRemember that the length of the back determines which size you need.
\nFirst measure the horse’s back from just in front of the withers to just above the base of the tail.
\nFollow the line of the back carefully with the measuring tape.
\nThen choose the size based on this measurement.
\nExample: If you measure 136 cm, choose size 135.<\/p>\n
Guidelines to help you choose the right size:
\nSize 75\/85 fits mini shetties
\nSize 95\/105 fits Shetland ponies
\nSize 115 fits B-ponies
\nSize 125 fits C-ponies
\nSize 135 fits D-ponies or small horses
\nSize 145 fits horses up to 170 cm at the withers
\nSize 155 fits horses approx. 170-180 cm at the withers
\nSize 165 fits horses over 180 cm at the withers<\/p>\n

How warm a blanket should I choose?
\nHorses can tolerate the cold much better than humans, although their needs vary. In fact, a blanket that is too warm will often do more harm than one that is a little cooler. So if you are hesitating between two thicknesses, choose the thinner option. <\/p>\n

Environment and sustainability:
\nWe care about the environment and actively promote sustainable consumption. For this reason, we have chosen not to use fleece in our blankets to stop the emission of plastic particles. Another advantage is that you avoid static electricity on clipped horses, which otherwise creates unpleasant shocks when the horse moves. <\/p>\n
Care for your quilt:
\nIf you take care of your new EquoIQ quilt, you will get protection that surpasses most on the market. Make sure to maintain the quilt’s waterproofness by impregnating it as soon as the fabric starts to absorb moisture. The water droplets should simply bounce off and run off. <\/p>\n
To protect nature from impregnation agents, we first recommend that you rinse off dirt with lukewarm water and a soft brush. You can of course wash the blanket in a machine, but we still recommend hand washing for the sake of the environment. Don’t forget to always impregnate with an environmentally friendly agent after washing. <\/p>\n
Wash outdoor rugs at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius to maintain the impregnation.<\/p>\n
