Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure I get the correct fit for my horse?
A: Measure your horse from the center of the chest, along the side of the body, to the point of the rump just before the tail. If your horse measures between sizes, the manufacturer recommendation is to round up to the next size to ensure full coverage and prevent shoulder rubbing.

Q: Is this rug suitable for horses that live outside?
A: Yes, the Tempest Original Lite is specifically designed for field use in mild, wet weather. Its durable ripstop outer and secure fastenings make it an ideal choice for hardy horses or "good doers" who need rain protection without the bulk of heavy insulation.
