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.
