Acavallo 840D Ripstop Waterproof Turnout Rug 400g
Acavallo rugs are measured in standard European sizing. Measure your horse from the centre of the chest to the point of the hindquarters to determine the correct rug size.

How to Measure for a Rug
Stand your horse square on level ground. Using a flexible tape measure, measure from the centre of the chest (where the buckle would sit), along the side of the body, to the point of the hindquarters. This measurement in centimetres corresponds to the rug size.
Choosing the Right Weight
| Fill Weight | Warmth Level | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 0g (No fill) | Lightweight | Rain protection, mild weather, clipped horses in summer |
| 100-200g | Medium | Autumn/spring, partially clipped horses |
| 250-300g | Medium-Heavy | Cold weather, fully clipped horses |
| 400-500g | Heavy | Very cold weather, thin-skinned breeds |
| 800g | Extra Heavy | Extreme cold, or horses needing maximum warmth |
Neck Covers
Neck covers should match your rug size. Acavallo neck covers attach to their corresponding stable and turnout rugs for full-body coverage.
The 840D ripstop polyester turnout rug offers an excellent and comfortable fit and is characterised by a warm and soft padding.
The waterproof fabric and the 400g weight make the item suitable for facing low temperatures and keeping the horse warm and dry even in the coldest periods of the year.
Extremely warm, it is equipped with a silky lining to avoid skin injuries.
Designed not to limit the horse's movement and increase comfort. Finished in small details with triangle eco-leather stitching on the shoulder and other resistant stitchings.
The straps are crossed and adjustable according to the horse's needs. The rug is also equipped with elastic straps under the thigh to stabilize and always keep the item in place, a large and comfortable tail guard, a double hook-and-loop closure and quick-release chrome-plated stainless steel buckles.
It is possible to combine the rug with the neck cover in the same material.
