Horseware Rambo supreme heavyweight turnout rug
My horse is a sensitive soul, needing to be wrapped up warm in the winter and shielded from the flies in the summer. So he is rugged up for 90% of the time!
For all you non-horsy types a rug is a coat that covers the horse's body from his shoulder to his tail, fastening under his belly and round his chest. Some horses particularly the finer types racehorses for example have been bred over the years to have finer coats that no longer give them enough protection against the British weather. So both in the stable and out in the field they need to wear rugs to protect them.
Sadly I am not fortunate enough to be able to check on my horse throughout the day so when thinking about getting him a new cosy winter rug I needed to be sure that it would be safe for him to wear all day, no rubbing or bits to catch on fencing or gates, That is would be strong enough to cope with any playtime rough and tumbles. That it would keep him warm and dry with no leaks but also that he wouldn't get over heated on milder days.
As I already own several Horseware rugs I was already aware of their quality and great range of products. I searched my favourite horsy products websites and catalogues. My magpie eye spied the new Rambo supreme in the Derby house catalogue and I was immediately impressed. It covers the horse from his neck, just behind the ears right to his tail. The neck cover is removable for milder days; this is secured to the main body of the rug with a chunky spiral zip. This also has the added bonus of 'laying' the horse's mane. For all you non-horsy types the horse's mane should lay on the left hand side, if you look at the horse from the front. My horses mane tends to style itself in more of a Mohican so the neck cover has kept it under control throughout the winter!
The rug is coated with AquaTrans a coating that creates a tough waterproof and breathable fabric ensuring that the horse will stay dry but not over heat.
The Rambo Supreme has leg arches which mould to the horses shape allowing maximum movement and keeping drafts out. There are three surcingles ensuring maximum safety and fit to the individual horses shape. For all you non-horsy people a surcingle is the straps that go under the horses belly to keep the rug in place.
There are reflective strips on the front; rear and tail flap of the rug so that you can spot your horse easily on those dark winter evenings. The rug also has a lining which polishes your horses coat saving time on grooming. A free matching head collar was also on offer while stocks lasted.
With all these features I knew I had to have it, this is not to mention the fact that my horse would look dead smart in this black rug with its smart gold binding! When I saw the price I hesitated a little last year this rug was priced at £215.00, it has now gone down in price a little too about £205.00. As the rug has a three year guarantee I bought it!
My horse has been wearing his Rambo supreme all winter and has been most cosy and snug. Last winter he would wait around the field gate asking to come in to his stable, this winter he has spent more time out in the field and appears happier being out. The rug hasn't slipped, ripped or leaked and my horse had a beautiful shiny coat all winter. Although an expensive rug for me you can't put a price on piece of mind and I felt satisfied that he could be left on the coldest of days and would be warm, dry and happy.
I would recommend this rug to anyone with a fine thoroughbred type horse that feels the cold, although for those tougher horses there is a middle weight version with no extra filling in the neck. Although pricy you may find yourself spending the same amount over three years on inferior rugs that leak or break!
Advantages: Keeps my old pony warm, dry and cosy Disadvantages: expensive to buy. A bit too much choise!
...I have owned horse wear/ rambo products for several years now and cannot praise them highly enough.
==Background==
Rambo turnout rugs are made by Horsewear, Ireland, a successful equine (and now also human) clothing manufacturer, which has been in business for over 20 years. They also produce indoor rugs, most notably the Rhino and horse acssesories (travle boots etc). The rambo rug was designed as the first rug not to slip, leak or restrict the ... ...in a row! The Rambo comes in slightly different designs and styles and there is also rhino turnouts as well now. ==Products==
Rambo original: This is the green rug with red cross surcingles, fillet string and front straps. The outer of this rug is ballistic nylon, with a nylon line. It is marketed as waterproof and breathable. It is the product I owned initally for my 14.2hh event pony. He is half thoroughbred but hates being stabled, and despite ...

Advantages: Light, warm, dont slip, never rub, horses seem to like them and dont try to get them off. Excellent value for money. Disadvantages: Expensive to buy, although I believe they are extremely cost effective.
...Someone suggested I buy a Rambo rug, and I laughed when they told me the cost. I was convinced I would be flushing 145 pounds down the drain. This person was so convinced that I wouldnt, that she leant me one of hers to try and was happy to accept the consequences!
My first thought on the Rambo rug was that it was too light, and would slip, or not be warm enough. I also thought that beacuse it was lightweight that it would be easier for my horse ... ...and bought both my horses Rambo rugs over 9 months ago, and both rugs are in petty good condition. They have got the odd small tear from bites over the fences (but thats just part of having a horse...nothing stays 100% forever).
The rugs are simply brilliant, never slipping, and they never leave unsightly rub marks on the horses chests, like others before have. Also, mine both have front fastenings that are made up of a ring and two clips (like ...

Advantages: Breathable, comfortable, waterproof and hardwearing. Disadvantages: absolutely none
I just can't praise Rambo rugs highly enough. Two of my horses have Rambo Turnouts on all through the winter. They both live out with access to a dry shelter and the rugs only come off when I ride them, about twice a week in winter. These rugs are warm and comfortable, they never slip and are completely waterproof. On the coldest night of the year you can slip your hand under these rugs and your horse will be as warm and dry as toast. It doesn't ... ...it may be tempting to go for a cheaper option but I know from experience that this is a false economy. If you stretch to the extra cost of a Rambo it will last you years and you will be thrilled with the quality. Your horse will thank you too! ...

Advantages: Everything Disadvantages: The cost!! But well worth it
I have 2 rambo turnout rugs, the standard rug and also the wug, the wug is the one with attached neck cover/hood.
Both of these rugs are of superb quality, having owned them for 2 years I have just had them washed and re-proofed and they look as good as new. The shiny inside material is excellent for making your horses coat shine!! I use my rambo's on both my old mare (21 years young) and my youngster who is only 3 and neither of them have any rips ... ...rambos are that they are both indoor and outdoor rugs that let the horses skin breathe - so more changing rugs morning and night!!!! They are best left on anyway if wet as the water never gets through them and the heat of the horse will dry them out quicker than if you removed them and left them in a cold feed/tack room to dry!!
I would highly recommend these rugs to anyone, they never seem to slip or move or rub either! Excellent value for money. ...

Review of Rambo Turnout
Advantages: Tough, effective, fit Disadvantages: Not cheap
...boy, is it effective!
Rambo rugs are part of the Weatherbeater company, a manufacturer with a fantastic reputation for quality.
Rambo is one of their sub lines and includes a diverse range from fly rugs to heavy weight turn outs.
Rambo turnouts come in a range of weights so that you can build up an enormous collection of rugs to suit any foible of the British weather! If you are smarter than me, you would probably stick to a lightweight, a heavyweight ... ...vary hugely in cut. The Rambo is generously cut so you do not have to buy a bigger than usual size. They are also cut quite deep so they are great for a broad or deep barreled horse or pony. In fact they are one of the few brands I have come across that seem to suit both horses and ponies.
Appearence is fairly irrelevant as any turnout rug will soon be covered in mud, but these look pretty smart and are available in a range of colours.
My horse ...
