BUYING GUIDE
How to Choose the Right Paddock Rug
Choosing the right paddock rug helps keep your horse comfortable throughout New Zealand's changing seasons. Consider fabric, fill weight, fit and coverage before making your choice.
Fill Weight
Horse rug fill weight is measured in grams. A 100g rug offers light insulation, while higher fill weights generally provide more warmth for colder weather.
Fit & Coverage
Choose the right horse rug size and check neck coverage, chest fastenings, belly straps and tail flaps. A well-fitting paddock rug should allow comfortable movement while providing suitable protection.
HORSE RUG HELP & ADVICE
Paddock Rug FAQs
Find answers to common questions about paddock rugs for New Zealand horses, including waterproofing, fill weight, coverage and choosing the right size.
What is a paddock rug?
A paddock rug is a horse cover used outdoors, also called a turnout rug. The collection includes different fabrics, levels of insulation and coverage, so check the intended use of each product.
Are all paddock rugs waterproof?
No. Mesh and some lightweight summer styles have different purposes from waterproof turnout rugs. Check each product's fabric and waterproofing description before buying.
What does the fill weight mean?
A fill weight such as 100g or 200g describes the amount of insulating fill. Compare this separately from the outer fabric's denier rating and from any waterproofing claims in the product description.
How do I choose the right horse rug size?
Follow the measuring instructions and size guide for the specific product. Check fit around the chest, shoulders and hindquarters, and ask our team if you need help comparing sizes.
