Mackey Keadeen Plus 100g Turnout Rug for Horses
Description
Mackey Keadeen Plus 100g Turnout Rug
The Mackey Keadeen Plus 100g is a waterproof, breathable standard-neck turnout rug with a 600 denier ripstop outer and 100g filling. It is best for horses, cobs and larger ponies turned out in milder or changeable weather, where a lighter level of warmth is needed rather than a heavyweight rug.
Inside, an anti-rub 210d polyester lining and fleece wither protection reduce friction at the shoulders and withers, while leg gussets, a tail flap, cross surcingles and detachable leg straps keep the rug settled as the horse grazes, rolls and moves about the field.

How to Use
- Measure your horse from the centre of the chest, along the side of the body, to the point of the buttock, and choose the nearest size in feet and inches.
- Fold the rug and place it over the withers, then unfold it back along the body so the hair lies flat.
- Fasten the twin strap breast buckle first, allowing a hand's width of movement at the chest.
- Fasten the cross surcingles under the belly, leaving roughly a hand's depth of clearance.
- Link the leg straps through one another before clipping them, so they sit clear of the hind legs.
- Check the fit after an hour in the field and adjust the straps if the rug has shifted.

FAQ
Is a 100g turnout rug enough for winter?
A 100g fill is a lighter turnout weight, best suited to autumn, spring and milder winter days, or for clipped horses that are stabled at night. In sustained cold, many owners move to a mid or heavyweight rug.
How do I measure my horse for this rug?
Measure from the centre of the chest, along the side of the body, to the point of the buttock. Order the nearest size in feet and inches, and measure the horse rather than copying an old rug, as cuts vary between makes.
What size should I choose if my horse is between two sizes?
Choose the larger size, particularly for horses that are broad through the shoulder or deep through the barrel. A rug that is slightly generous is less likely to rub than one that is tight.
Does this rug have a high neck or a detachable neck cover?
No. The Keadeen Plus 100g is a standard neck rug with fleece wither protection, and no neck cover is included.
Will it rub my horse's shoulders?
The anti-rub 210d polyester lining and fleece wither protection are designed to reduce friction at these points. Correct sizing and regular strap checks make the biggest difference to rubbing.
How do I wash and care for the rug?
Brush off dry mud, rinse the outer as needed and reproof the outer fabric periodically to maintain water resistance. Inspect buckles, surcingles and leg straps for wear before each use.
