High neck design for additional coverage. Euro turnouts provide very good coverage and protection from the elements. The straight cut no back seam design with minimal tailoring helps maintain the blanket's waterproof integrity.
High level waterproof, windproof, breathable barrier with Teflon coating for indoor / outdoor use.
Originally designed to fit thoroughbreds and warmbloods, the boxy fit adapts well to most conformations. Care should be exercised when blanketing horses with prominent withers. Read Michigan State study

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.
