Learning about Rambo rugs is like going back to school - or maybe forward to school, since the science of keeping horses warm/dry/fly-free is always advancing. There's a lot more to learn than how to throw the blanket over the horse and buckle up the straps. However, there's a short cut for those who want it. Customer reviews help when you're trying to find the best way to invest your money and get a good return.
Say you want to learn it all. Well, get a bottle of water and maybe a Hero sandwich and settle down to your computer. This may take a while. Start by searching for Horseware of Ireland, the originator of these industry-leading turnouts.
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 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.
Maybe you want a snug fit for a foal, in which case you'll be glad to know that the ones from Horsecare 'grow' with the baby; there's an ingenious way to adjust the many Velcro fasteners to get just the right size to keep an energetic young animal warm and untangled. Of course, there's a wide color choice, so you and your precious foal can look handsome.
Customer reviews can help a lot, if you just want to take Horseware's word for the fact that their products are the best on the market in design, materials, fit, durability, and appearance. After all, Tom and Carol McGuiness succeeded in making the first truly waterproof, breathable, well-fitting, and very warm turnout. Ever. It used to be hard to keep a horse warm and dry out in the field, without finding it drenched in sweat under the blanket, soaked by rain, or tangled in the straps and clips used in an attempt to keep everything 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.
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.
