Meticulously crafted from breathable and lightweight 840 denier ballistic nylon, this medium weight turnout rug offers unparalleled durability in the field.
Our advanced fabric technology incorporates two types of specialised membranes, alongside the Teflon coating applied to the outer fabric for stain resistance and moisture protection. Positioned just below the outer shell material, the unique breathable and waterproof membrane contains millions of precision-sized microscopic holes, allowing efficient airflow, while effectively repelling water droplets. Meanwhile, a second hydrophilic membrane, located deeper in the rug’s construction, expertly draws and disperses moisture from the horse’s coat, ensuring a comfortable experience. This dual-membrane design enhances the rug’s waterproof capabilities and protects the 250g thermo-bonded fill, extending the rug’s lifetime and maintaining peak performance for years to come.
Designed with meticulous attention to detail, the Buster 250g Turnout Rug is cut 2-4” in front of the wither allowing the neckline to fall comfortably in front of the shoulder. Evolving with time, the Buster now features an extra-high patented elasticated shoulder gusset, providing greater freedom of movement in the field. Reflective strips at the front and rear of the rug increase visibility in low-light conditions. The strategically placed chest clip closures, surcingle bars, and hardware are expertly crafted from high-quality stainless steel for long-lasting functionality.
Innovations abound with our deep-cut design, featuring a seamless rug that wraps snugly around the horse, held in place by low-cross surcingles. This thoughtfully engineered design ensures complete relief from pressure on the spine, prioritising comfort. You can experience worry-free rugging as we have mastered the art of self-righting rugs, allowing the horse to move freely without the rug slipping.
Lengthened tail flaps, featuring waterproof and padded elements, provide sustained protection, resisting wind-lift. With the inclusion of a detachable classic neck cover and liner attachments at the ready, this medium weight turnout rug can be quickly adapted to suit your horse’s needs. The lining of this rug, made from antibacterial and anti-static material, enhances hygiene and comfort, promoting good coat health.
The iconic Buster turnout rugs represent Premier Equine’s original and time-tested design. As a final touch, this rug includes an essential clip-on PVC coated tail strap, protected by an easy-clean coating to preserve the tail strap’s durability over time. Our turnout rugs are self-righting and do not require leg straps, however, we include a pair of clip-on adjustable leg straps for those who like to use them.
