It's like going back to school and doing a research project when you decide to learn about Rambo rugs. These turnout blankets - or stable, travel, cooler, exercise, or fly rugs - have set the standard for the industry. The history of the company is interesting and the details of design, materials, and durability are absorbing. However, you can also find customer reviews for a simpler way to validate the claim that Rambos are the best money can buy.
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.
Product description for just one rug will be something like this: snug fit, superior warmth with less weight, layers of nylon outer, thermobonded fiberfill, and polyester antibacterial and anti-static inner lining, a patented V-front closure, high-cut neck for less wither pressure, tail cord and flap, reflective safety strips, and leg arches as standard features. Not compatible with liner systems.
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.
For fun, check out the foal blankets that 'grow' with the youngster. Velcro fasteners make getting a perfect fit easy no matter how fast the baby is growing in height and weight. The wide belly flap keeps the baby warm and snug without straps that might tangle delicate legs. If adult horses gain weight, there are chest expansions to allow a little more room.
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.
You can see why this might take a while. However, maybe your time will be better spent in choosing the right size for your particular horse. The folks at Horseware really have figured out all the other details, even up to how to re-fit a rug when your horse gains a pound or fifty. You can trust these people to give you a well-fitting turnout that will last for years; they guarantee them for three, but people will tell you they last much longer.
