Heavy Horse Summer Sheets

A popular rug in our heavy horse summer sheet range is the Cotton Sheet Standard available in burgundy and a variety of sizes. To help keep the rug in place and provide more movement and freedom for heavy horses, the cotton summer sheet comes with a tail flap and shoulder gusset. For additional comfort, we have inserted soft nylon lining at the chest area of the rug to help prevent any friction or rubbing.

If you’re looking for something to cover your horse entirely, the Cotton Combo Rug is the perfect solution. Made from quality 400gsm 100% cotton, this heavy horse summer sheet is soft and strong. This summer rug also comes with nylon lining at the mane line and chest to help prevent rubbing and friction. The tail flap is useful for heavy horses who are prone to rubbing their tails, so this rug can help to prevent that whilst they travel or whilst stabled.

Heavy Horse Fly Rugs

As well as fly masks, which you can choose with or without ears, to help protect your horse against insects and bugs from irritating them, we also have fly rugs for heavy horses. At Ruggles, our heavy horse fly rug range has been designed for heavier breeds, including the Shire, Clydesdale and Percheron. Therefore, every heavy horse fly rug in our collection is more generous in depth at both the shoulder and chest. The Combo Fly Rug has a soft but strong weave mesh for durability, comfort, but also to keep the flies away from the horse. The combo neck attached has an elasticated poll, and like all our other rugs, comes in a zipped bag for storing when the rug isn’t needed.

You can even protect your horse from flies in warm weather and showery conditions with the Combo Fly Rug with Waterproof Panel. The waterproof and breathable panel on this heavy horse fly rug helps to provide some additional protection to the top line of the horse.
