DefenceX Shield 0g Turnout Rug with Detachable Neck

T

he DefenceX Shield 0g Turnout Rug with Detachable Neck is a high-performance, lightweight rug designed to protect your horse in wet and windy conditions without adding unnecessary warmth.

Crafted from a durable 1200 denier ballistic ripstop outer, this rug offers excellent waterproof protection while remaining breathable and strong enough for everyday turnout. The detachable neck provides added versatility, featuring secure double touch tape fastenings and an elasticated poll to reduce wind chill and ensure a snug, comfortable fit.

Designed with both performance and comfort in mind, the rug includes a mid-rise shoulder gusset for full freedom of movement and a padded wither to relieve pressure. The deep cut design enhances coverage, while the specially shaped tail flap offers maximum protection against rain and wind.

Reflective detailing across the body, neck and tail flap improves visibility in low-light conditions, making it ideal for winter turnout. Adjustable cross surcingles, twin chest fastenings and optional leg straps ensure a secure and tailored fit for every horse.
