Our turnout deniers are legendary for their waterproofing performance and breathability Apart from using full weight 1200 denier, all our rugs include reflective bindings, quick release chest buckles, generous drops and full wrap tail flaps.
Our new Aero-mesh is a new generation lining, very strong, but very soft on a horses coat. The Aeromesh is very hygienic and creates a breathing space between the rug and your horses coat, this has multiple advantages - it greatly improves breath-ability, airflow and comfort for your horse and won't rot or attract mold like a cotton lining will. Aeromesh is used across the horses body with Anti-Rub lining in the mane, shoulders and skirts.
Rainsheets and can be used during wet weather in the warmer months, and a very versatile option for use in the cooler weather, layering rugs underneath as needed. (save buying a winter turnout horse rug)

We recommend using rainsheets in conjunction with a light cotton horse rug. Colder outside air temperature and warmer air under the rug from the horses body heat will create condensation. This will accumulate on the inside of the rug. A light cotton under rug or similar with good moisture wicking properties helps to transport moisture away from their skin.
What sets our 1200 Deniers Turnout horse rugs apart from others?
- The Eclipse rugs include reflective bindings & seams for added night safety as standard.
- We only use Premium 370gsm weight 1200 Denier fabrics. Be wary of cheaper 1200 Denier rugs using thinner 300gsm fabrics. (more info below)
- We use extra wide fabric for construction - which allows us to deliver generous drops even in the bigger sizes . (as an example size 6'0 has a generous 106cm drop up to a 7’0 with a 115cm drop.)
- No rugs is ever 100% waterproof, but ours come close. Be informed that as this is a rug style - with no neck, you will get water running down the horses neck and under the rug onto their chest and shoulders and upper back.
- Dual European style 'Quick release' chest buckles with extra adjustment options.
- Very Generous 'Full Wrap' tail flaps
- All Caribu Synthetic Rugs and Combos are rated to a waterproof rating of at least 3000MM - more than twice the minimum requirements. Our Synthetic Rugs also have have a breathability rating of at least 3000gr/m2/per24hrs. The waterproof rating relates to the fabric. No rug is ever 100% waterproof, as water will enter via seams & joins that can not be heat sealed (ie behind chest buckles, leg straps and tail flap joins). We use a continuous run of fabric in the neck and body of the combo - no joins or seams in
