First impressions

This rug was thinner than I expected — really nice and light. It thought it looked smart and well made, and I liked the style.

Overview of performance

Everything about this rug was good. It fitted well, the material and fastenings were well made, and it was breathable.

Jo’s likes and dislikes

I loved the silky chest lining — great if your horse is prone to rubbing. It would be great if this rug came in a larger range of colours.
