Taking Rambo Rugs 101 And Beyond

By Jaclyn Hurley


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.

If you really do want to put in the time, get ready for a long session. You might want to get a bottle of water and a snack. Start by searching Rambo turnouts and you'll get hundreds of retail sites, so begin with Horseware of Ireland. You can always come back to the retailers when you know what you want.

Get ready to read something like this: Snug fit, less weight and more warmth with a layer system of nylon outer over thermobonded fiberfill; polyester antibacterial and anti-static lining, patented v-front closure, tail flap and wipe-clean tail cord, high-cut neck to eliminate wither pressure, leg arches, reflective strips, (not compatible with liner system.)

These are standard features on just one rug. You can continue on to other descriptions for light, medium, or heavy field blankets. Perhaps you're looking for a stable rug, a fly sheet, a Wug, a cooler, a travel blanket, an exercise rug, or a removable hood.

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.

Tom and Carol McGuiness started Horseware with the Rambo, the very first turnout that was truly waterproof, fit securely without restricting movement of the neck and shoulders, and provided warmth without being too cumbersome for comfort. Their success changed the industry and made keeping horses warm in winter much easier than ever before. This task used to be difficult if not impossible, with the real possibility of rubbed shoulders, sore withers, or horses either too cold or bathed in sweat.

If you want validation for the expertise of Horseware of Ireland, look for customer reviews. Horse owners love to tell others about their experiences, and there are thousands of owners out there very happy with their Rambos. Reviews say that turnouts have lasted eight years or more, with regular cleaning and re-proofing and occasional repairs with patches, needle, and thread.

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.
