Winter Blanket Care: Keep Your Turnout Waterproof All Season
A good turnout can last for years, or one muddy season. A few minutes of care each week keeps it waterproof, keeps your horse dry, and saves you from buying a replacement mid-winter.

Lite, medium-lite, medium or heavy? The fill weight on a turnout is the single biggest decision you'll make this winter, and it's simpler than the labels make it look. Here's how to pick the right one for your horse, your barn and your weather.
Winter weather doesn't stay put, so your horse's blanket shouldn't have to either. Liners, neck covers and layering systems let one good turnout handle a 45Β°F afternoon and a 10Β°F night, without a closet full of blankets.
The first cold snap never gives much notice. One week you're still pulling fly sheets off in the morning, and the next there's frost on the water trough and you're out in the tack room at 6am trying to remember where last year's medium weight ended up β and whether it still has both leg straps.
We'd rather you weren't doing that in November. So here's the one job worth doing now, while the weather's still being reasonable about it: get a tape measure on your horse.
When youβre shopping for the best horse blankets for winter, understanding the essential features will save you time, money, and potential headaches down the road. These considerations apply across all reputable brands and blanket styles.
