Incorporates memory foam padding in the wither, shoulder line, and hip panels
Improved waterproof and breathability ratings
3M Teflon coating that adds to the waterproofing, durability, and stain resistance

Enhanced coverage over the shoulder and wither areas where muscle loss often occurs
Our VTEK® Wither Relief fit prevents rubbing and relieves pressure on moderate to high withers. The upright shoulder and shape over the withers are designed to fit breeds with similar conformations as Thoroughbreds, Warmbloods, Appendix horses, or those with upright shoulder conformation. It includes an extended drop to cover a deeper heart girth, and they are shaped with darts at the hips to give a more contoured fit around the rump. Extends 6 to 8 inches onto the mane with fleece placed where the mane meets the sheet, further preventing rubbing. Memory Foam has been strategically incorporated into the wither, shoulder line, and hip panels, targeting areas where Senior horses commonly experience muscle loss and prominent bone structure. This additional layer of protection helps prevent rubs and sores, especially as older horses tend to lie down more frequently.
Adjusta-Fit® System: Customized Comfort
From the widest warmbloods and stock horses to the narrowest thoroughbreds and Arabians, our patented Adjusta-Fit® system allows you to customize the fit of the neck opening to fit any horse. Whether your horse is wide or narrow or has a high or low head carriage doesn't matter. This unique feature allows you to fit any width or head carriage, saving money and time when blanketing your horses.
An Extremely Durable Turnout Blanket
Our ARMORFlex® Challenger II Senior series is constructed from an extremely durable 1200D ripstop polyester that offers a tough durability rating for the most playful horse constantly running, playing, and likely getting into blanket-tugging antics with other horses. We back this blanket with a 7-year warranty! The new nylon lining with the Schneiders logo is breathable and keeps your horse's coat soft, smooth, and shiny throughout the season.
Warmth Levels for All Weather Types
Choose the level of insulation that's right for your horse. ARMORFlex® Challenger II Senior Horse Blankets are available in various warmth levels - from sheets to heavyweight blankets. Whether you need a sheet for your short coat horse while weather transitions or a heavy-weight blanket for bitter winter days, the ARMORFlex® series has you covered.
Improved Waterproofing That Keeps Your Horse Warm & Dry
All of our ARMORFlex® Challenger II Senior Horse Blankets are extremely waterproof due to being seam-sealed and 3M Teflon coated, which adds longevity to the waterproofing, enhances durability, and provides stain resistance. These blankets feature top-tier technology in fabric treatment, offering full protection against galloping downpours while remaining breathable. Any water will simply bead up and roll off the material, maintaining your horse's warmth and comfort in practically any weather.
Open Front Closure for Comfort
The open front option features double front snaps with a new wider hook and loop closures that assist in keeping the open front from separating for a more secure fit. It allows for easy adjustment for the perfect amount of "snugness" at the front of the chest to alleviate gaps. Plus, the snaps make it easy to put on and remove.
Better Gusset Design for Additional Freedom
Our reinforced gussets extend higher and more forward, allowing greater freedom of motion for the shoulder, and preventing rubbing on the shoulders. This innovative design offers additional freedom and comfort for your horse.
Criss-Cross Surcingle Closure for Security and Protection
The criss-cross surcingle closure option adjusts to the center to keep the blanket from sliding from side to side. The t-post hardware features locking bands and detachable elastic leg straps for increased security.
Large Tail Cover for Extra Protection
The larger tail cover provides additional protection from wind and harsh weather, such as rain or snow, to keep your horse as warm as possible.
New 3M Reflective Features for Visibility
This blanket features 3M reflective gusset patches and tail stripe for safety. Light from the moon or cars reflects off the binding, providing high visibility, making it easy to see your horse during dusk or night turnout.
Leg Straps Included
Set the blanket at the optimum snugness with the included detachable, elastic leg straps that help keep it in place. They adjust from 20" to 38" and stretch as the horse moves with double brass-plated snaps for easy on and off.
7-Year Warranty
We proudly stand behind our products, with a customer satisfaction guarantee, because your trust and horse's comfort matter most. We are so confident about the durability and workmanship of the ARMORFlex® Challenger II that it's backed by a 7-year warranty.

How to Measure a Horse for a Blanket
The most accurate and easiest way to determine your horse’s blanket size is to measure along the side of their body, from chest to tail. First, stand the horse square on a flat surface. Measure from the center of the chest, straight back to the very edge of the tail. Make sure to measure along the widest part of their shoulder and hindquarters. The number of inches measured in this way is your horse’s size. Look on the size chart for any Schneiders blanket for this number of inches to order your horse’s perfect size.
