This tough waterproof turnout sheet allows your horse to stay comfortable and dry no matter how they play out in the pasture.

Key benefits

Fitted V-Free® Pressure Free Wither

Patented Fitted V-Free® blankets are designed to prevent rubbing and relieve pressure on moderate to low withers. They are uniquely designed to fit Arabians, Quarter Horses, Stock breed horses or those with Sloped Shoulder Conformation. The drop on these blankets are longer than a stable blanket to allow a slight wrap around the barrel. Darts at the hip form a contoured fit around the rump. V-Free® Blankets begin where the mane ends, leaving the mane uncovered.

If you need a blanket designed to fit Thoroughbreds, Warmbloods, Appendix horses, or those with Upright Shoulder Conformation try our VTEK® Pressure Free Wither version of this blanket.

If you need a blanket designed to fit Arabians, Morgans, Friesians, Saddlebreds, Tennessee Walkers, or any horse with Upright Head Carriage try our Cutback version of this blanket.

Adjusta-Fit®- Adjusts for Your Perfect Fit!

From wide to narrow, high head carriage to low, the patented Adjusta-Fit® system customizes the neck opening to fit any horse width or head carriage. This unique feature is what allows the same sheet to fit both a wide Warmblood and a narrow Thoroughbred.

A Waterproof Turnout Sheet Keeps Your Horse Dry and Protected from Wind

With no insulation, this waterproof turnout sheet is designed to keep your horse dry and protected from the wind and rain on wet days. Keeping your horse dry prevents chills from unpredicted drops in temperature, and provides protection from the moist conditions that cause skin infections like rain rot. Use our turnout sheets in any temperature to keep your horse dry, or if your horse is body-clipped or has a very short, thin coat, choose our turnout sheets for temperatures between 50 - 60 degrees F.

Waterproof, Windproof, & Breathable for Your Horse’s Comfort

All our turnout blankets and sheets are designed to keep your horse warm and dry. They’ll be comfortable even in fluctuating temperatures, rain, or snow with our waterproof, windproof, and breathable turnout blankets.

Criss Cross Surcingle Stays in Place.

Criss-cross surcingles adjust to keep the blanket from sliding side to side. Comes with locking bands and detachable elastic leg straps for increased security. Brass plated hardware resists corrosion from moisture, manure and detergents.

For greater warmth and protection try our bellyband version of this blanket.

If you are not sure which blanket is best for your horse check out our "Blanketing 101" page.

Closed Front

Deep V Closed front has a deeper cut, allowing your horse's head down without pulling the blanket forward, avoiding discomfort or rubbing.

For more adjustability try our open front version of this closed front blanket.

Large Tail Cover Detaches

Additional Freedom from a Better Gusset Design

Reinforced gussets extend higher and more forward to allow greater freedom of motion for the shoulder which prevents rubbing on shoulders.

Leg Straps Included!

Detachable Elastic leg straps help keep the sheet in place. Our leg straps adjust from 20" to 38" and will stretch as horse moves. Set at optimum snugness and use the double brass-plated snaps for easy on and off.

Guaranteed to Last

Reviews

Great fit

"This blanket provides a good fit and sits correctly on my horses withers and doesn't rub. I like that it's lightweight and has a nylon lining to keep him shiny. The fit is great, it holds up and is great in the elements. I gave it 4/5 stars because I'd love to see Schneiders develop a front buckle system with a single point in the middle similar to the horseware style closure instead of 2 straight across buckles and snaps. I'd also love to have reflective strips on it somewhere."

Nora G. (4/5)

my young pony can not get it off, so far.

"My 3 yr old pony cross can undo buckles! AUGH! This is the ONLY front closed turnout sheet that I can find. So far, 2 months, it has stood up well to his shenanigans. I bought a second for back up. It fits him well and is keeping him dry and bonus- clean. I like the shoulder/neck adjustment. Thanks Schneiders! PS- would appreciate more colors but I hopefully won't need another for a couple of more years."

It Fits!

"In my hunt to find a quality, well-fitting, waterproof turnout sheet for my mule, a friend recommended Schneider's. Ordering the right blanket with all the features that I needed (wither relief, pleated shoulders, belly band) was super easy. Finally a well-fitted, quality blanket just in time for our cold, wet days ahead!"

Christina S. (5/5)

The fit of this blanket

"The fit of this blanket is great on my high withered saddlebred. The only thing I would change is a thicker rubber on the clips of the bellyband. They slide too easy in and out. Other wise, love everything else."
