Horse Cooler Rugs From Premier Equine
When it comes to selecting a horse cooler rug, Premier Equine have several options to choose from. If you’re struggling with which cooler rug would be best - continue reading! Our equestrian experts have gone through all of your options to make the decision process that little bit easier.
Horse Cooler Rugs are multi-use, but the primary purpose is to allow the horse to gradually lower its body temperature after exercise without catching a chill or cooling too rapidly, causing cramping or tying up. Using a wicking cooler rug at this time also helps to absorb any excess moisture on the surface of the horse's coat, either from sweat due to exertion or water leftover after hosing off the horse. Carefully selected fabrics wick moisture from the horse and through the material, allowing the condensation to evaporate outside the rug. The best horse cooler rugs also slowly release excess body heat and enable cool air to disperse for a more gradual cool down.
There are many horse cooler rug variations for sale on the equestrian market. Below, we will explain how some of our top-performing Premier Equine cooler rugs are designed to enhance your horse's rug wardrobe and why a technical horse cooler rug is a year-round must-have!
