What does the fill weight actually mean?
The gram figure in the name is the weight of insulating fill, not the weight of the whole rug. A 350g rug carries less insulation than a 450g rug, so it suits a milder stable or a horse carrying more of its own coat. The 450g options here, such as the Premier Equine Stable Buster 450g Stable Rug with Neck Cover at £176.40, are the warmest in this collection.
Does my horse need the heaviest option?
Not always. A fully clipped horse in a cold, airy barn generally needs more fill than an unclipped horse in a sheltered block. Over-rugging can leave a horse sweating under the rug, which is uncomfortable and counterproductive, so it is worth feeling under the shoulder and along the flank each morning to judge whether the weight is right. If your horse is losing condition, shivering repeatedly or you have any concerns about its health, speak to your vet rather than relying on rug weight alone.
Combo, neck cover or rug only?
A combo rug has the neck built in as one piece, so there is nothing to attach and no join to adjust. Options here include the Premier Equine Combo Stable Rug 400g at £144.00 and the Premier Equine Domus 400g Combo Stable Rug at £174.60. Rugs sold "with neck cover", such as the Premier Equine Hydra 350g Stable Rug with Neck Cover at £172.80, give you the choice of running the rug with or without the neck as the weather changes. The Premier Equine Lucanta Demi Stable 450g at £156.60 is the rug-only route: it is made with no neck cover attachments, so it suits a horse that does not need the neck covered.
What size do I need?
Rugs in this collection run from 5ft 0 to 7ft 3. Measure from the centre of the chest, along the side of the body, to the point of the buttock, and take the reading in a straight line rather than following every curve. If your horse falls between two sizes, the shape of the shoulder and the depth of the barrel usually decide it, and our team can talk it through with you.
Can a stable rug be used outside?
Stable rugs are built for indoor use and are not waterproof, so they are not a substitute for a turnout rug. If your horse goes out during the day and comes in at night, plan on a turnout for the field and a stable rug like these for the box.
Premier Equine heavyweight stable rug FAQs
What is the cheapest Premier Equine heavyweight stable rug you stock?
The lowest-priced rug currently in stock is the Premier Equine Stratus Stable Rug 400g with Neck Cover at £140.00, followed by the Premier Equine Combo Stable Rug 400g at £144.00. Stable accessories start lower, with the Premier Equine Team Stable Guard at £34.00.
Which rug in this collection has the heaviest fill?
Three rugs here carry a 450g fill: the Premier Equine Lucanta Demi Stable 450g at £156.60, the Premier Equine Stable Buster 450g Stable Rug with Neck Cover at £176.40, and the Premier Equine Lucanta 450g Stable Rug with Neck Cover at £178.20. These are the warmest options in the range.
What sizes do these stable rugs come in?
The rugs in this collection are offered from 5ft 0 up to 7ft 3, in 3-inch steps. Not every size is in stock in every colour at any given moment, so it is worth checking availability for your size and colour before you order.
What is the difference between a combo rug and one with a neck cover?
A combo rug has the neck section built into the rug as a single piece, so there is nothing to fit separately. A rug sold with a neck cover gives you two parts, letting you use the rug on its own when conditions are milder and add the neck when it turns colder.
Can I turn my horse out in a stable rug?
No. Stable rugs are designed for use indoors and are not waterproof, so they will soak through in the field. Use a turnout rug outside and keep the stable rug for the box.
How do I know if the rug weight is right for my horse?
Slide a hand under the rug at the shoulder and behind the withers. Warm and dry means the weight suits the conditions, damp means it is too warm, and cool skin with a tucked-up outline suggests more fill is needed. Clipping, stable ventilation and your horse's age and condition all affect the answer, so treat it as a judgement you review through the season. For any health concern, ask your vet first.
