Give your horse the ultimate armor against the elements with the Highlander Plus 300, engineered to withstand both the coldest winters and the most spirited turnout sessions. Designed specifically for the "rug wrecker" who demands superior warmth without sacrificing freedom, this heavyweight turnout ensures your horse stays dry, cozy, and comfortable no matter how harsh the weather becomes.

Crafted with Shires' renowned ShireTex® 1200 denier ripstop outer, this rug provides a fortress of protection that is as breathable as it is tough. The 300g of insulating polyfill offers substantial heavyweight warmth for extreme cold, while the high-tenacity fabric prevents snags and tears, making it the premier choice for active horses that are notoriously hard on their gear in the field.

Key Features & Specifications:

• 1200D ShireTex® Ripstop Outer: A high-tenacity, waterproof, and breathable fabric designed to withstand the toughest "rug wreckers" in the paddock.
• 300g Heavyweight Polyfill: Provides exceptional warmth and insulation during extreme cold, keeping your horse’s core temperature stable in freezing conditions.
• Deep Shoulder Gussets: Specifically engineered to allow for a full range of motion, preventing rubbing and restrictive pressure during high-energy play or grazing.
• WarmaRug Liner Compatible: Features integrated attachment loops that allow you to easily add or swap liners to increase the rug's weight for versatile temperature control.
• Quick-Clip Chest Fastenings: Adjustable and easy-to-use closures that ensure a secure, custom fit while saving time during morning and evening rug changes.
• Standard Neck Design: Offers a classic, non-restrictive fit that reduces mane rub, with the flexibility to add a matching neck cover (sold separately).
• Integrated Leg Straps & Tail Flap: Includes adjustable fillet straps and a large pleated tail flap to ensure the rug stays perfectly in place even in high winds.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure I am ordering the correct size for my horse?
A: To achieve the perfect fit, measure your horse from the center of the chest, around the widest part of the shoulder, to the furthest point of the buttock. This ensures the deep shoulder gussets sit correctly to provide maximum freedom of movement.

Q: Does this rug come with a neck cover included?
A: This is a "Standard Neck" model, which means the neck cover is sold separately. This design is ideal for horses that don't require full-body coverage or for owners who prefer the versatility of adding a hood only when the temperature drastically drops.

Q: Can I use this rug in transitioning seasons, or is it only for deep winter?
A: While the 300g fill is designed for cold weather, the Highlander Plus is compatible with the WarmaRug liner system. This allows you to customize the warmth levels, making it a highly adaptable investment for your horse's winter wardrobe.
