What is the waterproofing rating of the Highlander Plus Lite?
The rug has a waterproof rating of 3000mm, achieved through the ShireTex® 1200 denier ripstop outer, taped seams, PFC-free outer, and a Durable Waterproof Repellent (DWR) finish that encourages water to bead and roll off the fabric.
What is the breathability rating of this rug?
The Highlander Plus Lite has a breathability rate of 3000g/m², helping to keep your horse comfortable during mild, wet weather.
Can I add extra warmth to the Highlander Plus Lite?
Yes. The rug is compatible with separate WarmaRug liners available in 100g or 200g fills, which are sold separately and can be added when extra warmth is needed.
What does the PFC-free outer mean on this rug?
PFC (perfluorocarbon) is a chemical historically used in waterproofing treatments. The PFC-free outer means the waterproof coating on this rug does not use those chemicals, while still delivering 3000mm waterproof performance via taped seams and DWR finish.
Is the Shires Highlander Plus Lite machine washable?
Yes, the rug is machine washable, making routine cleaning straightforward.
