If you really want to research Rambo rugs, expect to spend quite a lot of time in front of your computer. These industry-changing turnouts and other types of horse blankets have so many features and options that it's like going back to school. However, you can also rely on the expertise of Horseware of Ireland and the testimonies of thousands of satisfied customers, limiting your efforts to choosing the right size and color.

It'll take time to become familiar with the full line of stable and field wear offered by Horseware of Ireland. There's a lot to read and understand about the innovative cut and fit, the kind of fasteners used, the materials that make the blankets warm but not bulky, and the various accessories that come with them.

A product description for the Wug includes facts about nylon for outer durability, thermobonded fiberfill for more warmth with less weight, antibacterial and anti-static polyester inner lining, patented V-front closure, high-cut neck to relieve wither pressure, tail flap for added protection and tail cord for more security, and reflective strips for safety. Oh, yeah, leg arches for added freedom of movement, and the Wug isn't designed to be used with liners.

These are standard features for the Wug and other turnouts. They come in light, medium, and heavy weights. You'll find a complete assortment of blankets, sheets, and coolers for every purpose in the Horseware line, as well as a wide choice of color and size.

If you have a foal, you'll be glad to know that the folks at Horseware have figured out a way to get one blanket to fit perfectly throughout the growing stages of a baby horse. Ingenious Velcro fasteners make adjustments easy, and a wide belly band replaces straps that can tangle young legs. The streamlined look and wide color choice means that foals will look stylish out in the field.

You can rely on the design and durability of Rambos. After all, Tom and Carol McGuiness were the very first to achieve a truly warm, waterproof, breathing, well-fitting turnout - and thereby changed the industry forever. It used to be a real struggle to keep horses warm and dry at the same time. Waterproof coverings could become sweat baths, while warm woolens became soaked when it rained. Layers of cotton liner, wool blanket, and waterproof sheet were hard to keep in place.

If you simply decide to rely on Horseware's expertise, check customer reviews to narrow your choice. Owners write about using the same turnout for eight years (the guarantee is three) with regular cleaning, re-proofing, and repair with needle and thread if the rug gets torn. There are informational videos that show you how to do maintenance and repairs to get the most out of your investment. You can buy re-proofing spray and repair kits from retailers to make the tasks easier.

Your time might be best spent in choosing the right fit, weight, and color for your new rug, whether it's for inside or out. The Rambos are guaranteed for three years, but owners will tell you they last much longer even under heavy use. Horsewear has even figured out a chest extension to help if your horse gains weight and the fit becomes a little snug.
