HV Polo Essential Outdoor Rug - Duck Green
Use this size guide for HV Polo outdoor and stable blankets. Blankets are sized by stick measure — the back length of your horse from withers to base of tail (measured straight, not following the curve).
- Stick measure — from withers to base of tail along the back
- Upper width — chest opening at the front of the blanket
- Bottom width — drop length from spine to lower edge

If between sizes, size up — a blanket that's too tight rubs at the chest and shoulders. The blanket should sit clear of the wither, cover the full back to the base of the tail, and the front buckles should fasten without straining.
The Essential is HV Polo's everyday turnout rug in a 0gr (no-fill) version — built for milder days when your horse needs weather protection without any added warmth, whether they live out or are turned out for the day.
The outer is a 600 Denier ripstop Oxford polyester, waterproof and breathable to a 4000/3000 rating to keep the wet out and let body heat escape. Inside, a smooth polyester taffeta lining wipes clean easily after a muddy turnout.
An adjustable double front closure and crossed belly surcingles keep the rug sat in place, with a walking slit at the back for unrestricted movement through the paddock.
