How to Measure for a Horse Blanket:
For best fit, stand horse squarely.
Measure from center of chest to edge of tail.
Take care to measure along the widest part of the shoulder and hindquarters.
The blanket measurement result is the blanket size.
If your measurement is in between sizes, round up to the next blanket size. Example: 73" = Size 74.
