Eurohunter Summer Rug Guide

Choosing the right rug for your horse can be challenging, so we've taken the guesswork out!

During summer, a light breathable rug is ideal for keeping your horse clean, prevent their coats from bleaching and help protect them from insects. 

Summer rugs are commonly made of Ripstop Poly-cotton, Polyester Mesh and Flag material.

  • Ripstop poly-cotton is a popular material as it combines cotton's breathability with polyester added for durability and 'Ripstop'. Ripstop is a line of poly that prevent rugs from ripping further.
  • Mesh is also handy on hot, humid, and showery days as mesh fabric dries quickly. The holes in the mesh fabric allow the breeze to go through the rug.
  • Flag is one of the most popular choices in summer. The poly-cotton in flag material is lighter and thinner which is ideal in the warmer weather. However it is also less robust. 

If you would like some help with selecting the right rug or sizing for your horse , give us a call on 02 9651 2337 and visit us in-store at 857 Old Northern Road, Dural NSW 2158.
