Hy Equestrian StormX Empra Waterproof Exercise Sheet
Description
Hy Equestrian StormX Empra Hydroguard Waterproof Exercise Sheet
The Hy Equestrian StormX Empra Hydroguard Waterproof Exercise Sheet is a fleece-lined, 600D waterproof rug worn over the saddle and quarters to keep your horse dry and warm while you ride. It is best for riders who continue hacking and schooling through wet, cold and windy British weather and need a sheet that stays put without restricting movement.
The waterproof outer shields against rain, wind and mud, while the soft fleece lining traps warmth and wicks moisture away to help prevent chills. Reflective detailing improves visibility in low light, and the cutaway shaping around the rider's legs keeps close contact through the leg.

FAQ
What size exercise sheet does my horse need?
Exercise sheets follow standard rug sizing. Measure from the centre of the wither to the top of the tail and choose the size your horse normally wears. If your horse is between sizes or is a broad cob type, the larger size usually fits better across the shoulders and quarters.
Can I ride in this sheet or is it only for walking out?
It is designed for ridden work. The cutaway shape around the rider's legs allows close contact and unrestricted movement, so it suits hacking, schooling and general riding rather than just leading out.
Is it fully waterproof?
The outer is durable 600D waterproof fabric that protects against rain, wind and mud during exercise.
Will it keep my horse warm in winter?
Yes. The soft fleece lining adds warmth and helps wick moisture away, which is useful for clipped horses and colder rides.
Does it stay in place while riding?
The wrap-around design sits neatly around the saddle and fastens with secure touch tape, which keeps it stable without adding unnecessary bulk.
How should I clean it?
Brush off dried mud and allow the sheet to dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid harsh detergents and fabric conditioners, which can affect waterproof performance.
