RUG SIZING AND CARE
All Zilco rugs are based on International sizing which measures the rug
from the front of the chest fitting to the back. With the new designs
(which have higher neck cuts for superior fit), it is recommended that you
order sizes as listed to avoid fitting problems.
If you do not have
an existing rug to measure, you can measure your horse. The measurement
should be taken from the centre of the animal's chest where the front of
the rug would meet, around the shoulder and along the side of the horse in
a continuous straight line to the point level with the top of the
tail.
All of our rugs are sized in graduations of 3 inches.
Opposite is a general guide of sizes, but this can vary depending on the
breed of the horse and its individual conformation.
