The Mackey Keadeen Plus 300g is a heavyweight waterproof turnout rug with a 600 denier ripstop outer and 300g of filling. It is best for horses and ponies turned out through cold, wet winter weather that need reliable warmth and rain protection.

How to Use
- Measure your horse from the centre of the chest, along the side of the body, to the point of the buttock to find the correct rug size.
- Fold the rug, place it over the withers and unfold it back along the body so the coat lies flat.
- Fasten the twin strap breast buckle first, allowing roughly a hand's width of room at the chest.
- Cross the surcingles under the belly and adjust so a flat hand fits between strap and horse.
- Link the leg straps through each other before clipping them so they sit clear of the inside of the hind legs.
- Check the fit after the first few hours of turnout and readjust if the rug slips back or pulls at the shoulders.
FAQ
Is a 300g turnout rug too warm for my horse?
A 300g fill is a heavyweight rug, best suited to cold winter conditions, clipped horses or those that feel the cold. In milder weather a lighter fill is usually more appropriate.
How do I measure for the right size?
Measure in a straight line from the centre of the chest, along the side of the body, to the point of the buttock. If you are between two sizes, the larger size often suits broader cob types better.
Will it rub my horse's shoulders?
The rug has an anti-rub 210d polyester lining and fleece wither protection to help reduce friction, and leg gussets allow a natural stride. Correct sizing remains the most important factor in preventing rubs.
Is the Mackey Keadeen Plus waterproof?
Yes. The 600 denier ripstop outer is waterproof and breathable. Reproof periodically with a suitable rug proofer to maintain water repellency.
Can the leg straps be removed?
Yes, the leg straps are detachable, and the rug also has cross surcingles with rubber rings for stability.
How should I clean it?
Brush off dried mud between wears and use a specialist rug wash rather than a domestic machine and fabric softener, which can affect waterproofing.
