Summer Horse Rug
At the Overseer Saddlery we take great pride in designing and manufacturing our own horse rugs. We source the best materials to make you a product that is both durable and tough; that will last beyond your expectations. It is well shaped so it fits squarely on your horse, the contour line in the centre of our rugs is unique to The Overseer Saddlery. This unique design has proven its worth for 30 years.
Canvas: Medium-weight 14 oz / 475 gsm cotton blend. Perfect for spring to autumn months and suitable for everyday wear. This summer rug can also be used under an Overseer winter rug for further insulation. The canvas offers excellent resistance to tearing with its strong ripstop construction. Its weave provides a breathable fabric. The drop on The Overseer rugs is a very generous 100cm / 40 inches.
Shoulders: Overseer summer-weight rugs are lined with a double layer of canvas.
Fittings are of leather construction, positioned perfectly to balance the rug squarely. We use heavy duty dees and buckles and the leg straps are of 1 inch PVC strapping for ease of use and durability. Leather leg straps are also available on request.
To determine correct size: Measure your horse from the centre of the chest horizontally to the furthest point on the rump. Please do not assume your last rug measurement is correct as lesser quality rugs have shrinkage of up to 6 inches.
The Overseer horse rugs are made in standard measurements of 5'9" / 6' / 6'3" / 6'6". Rugs can be made to your measurements if required.
