DGUK Own Neoprene Ironcovers

Advantages: Soft & Easy to use.
Disadvantages: Only 1 size and 1 Colour.

...I own the Woof Wear Neoprene Tail Guard and I have done for a few years as its so reliable. Manufactured from soft, flexible neoprene to protect the tail whilst travelling.

Neoprene Tail Guard. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Neoprene tail guards are made from neoprene (you would never have guessed that would you?) which is stretchy synthetic rubber, the same thing that wetsuits are made from. The thickness of neoprene ranges from 2 to 6mm and I would estimate the neoprene tail guard to be around 3mm. The prices range from around £8 to £15 depending on where you buy them from. The material is soft and slightly spongy and almost rubbery but not quite. The one in the picture has 5 velcro... Read review
