Rugged-Up Sweat Sheet
Product Description
Help your horse cool down safely and comfortably with the Rugged-Up Sweat Sheet. Proudly manufactured in Cape Town, this versatile cooler rug is designed to support temperature regulation after exercise while providing lightweight warmth where it's needed most.
The upper section features soft polar fleece, extending approximately 40cm down each side of the back to help wick away moisture, retain warmth over the major muscle groups and reduce the risk of chilling after work. The lower section is constructed from breathable mesh, allowing maximum airflow to encourage faster drying and improved ventilation.
Ideal for use after training, competition, bathing or travelling, the Rugged-Up Sweat Sheet helps your horse transition comfortably from exercise to rest. Adjustable belly surcingles and leg straps provide a secure, comfortable fit while allowing complete freedom of movement.
Like every Rugged-Up product, the Sweat Sheet can be personalised with your choice of binding colours and custom embroidery, making it ideal for individual riders, riding schools and competition yards.
