Excellent Quality Rambo Rugs For Horses

Excellent Quality Rambo Rugs For Horses


by Essie Osborn


Equestrian products provide a multi million dollar industry every year. There are many thousands of barns, both large and small, all over the country. Some people like to keep their horse at their own private barn, whilst others prefer the convenience of a full service livery yard. What all these owners and riders have in common is that they are always in need of top of the line products to keep their animals clean and healthy.

Horses are very active animals who love to run and play. When turned out in the field with their friends they can often play quite rough and have a tendency to nip at each other in a good natured way. Should they accidentally grab the rug it often ends up in sheds. Investing in good quality products such as the Rambo rugs will provide a lot more wear and help to keep the horse clean and comfortable.

The brand was developed in Ireland by the Horseware company. They really know what owners are dealing with as the wet Irish winters can be long and dreary. With this in mind the set about redesigning horse clothing to fit better and offer real protection against the wind and rain.

Traditionally horses wore winter blankets that were very heavy, prone to rot and practically impossible to keep clean. They could not be machine washed and often allowed in water. Horses were left standing in damp clothing and this led to many secondary skin problems. In addition the old style rug was not cut generously enough around the shoulders. Rubbing and bare skin were frequent problems that not only looked bad but could lead to permanent marking on the animals skin.

The use of nylon has been a revolutionary part of the development of the new generation of horse clothing. Nylon is not only light, but also very warm. A winter rug will contain various levels of nylon filling that is very effective at keeping the animal warm. It also prevents rubbing and pressure points.

The modern rug is held in place with an ingenious system of cross surcingles. These are adjustable to fit all sizes of horse and are very simple to use. The legs straps on the back legs also help to keep the rug in place. The simple but easy to use system has removed pressure points and made the animals much more comfortable.

Having a washable rug is so important. It not only prolongs the usable life of the rug, but helps to keep the horses skin healthy. The nylon lining is revolutionary as it not only prevents rubbing but actually helps to improve the quality of the coat.

It is wonderful for equestrians to know they have a company they can rely on. The Horseware products and particularly the Rambo line have long been favorites among riders. They are happy to buy a product that they know will stand up to the job and keep their horse dry in even the wettest weather. After all a product that was developed in Ireland should know how to deal with rain.
