Contour Collar Euro Fit Guide Designed with a Contour Collar Euro fit, this blanket accommodates both sloped and upright shoulder conformations and is well suited for horses with a low to flat shorter wither, balanced muscle tone, and smoother, flatter topline appearance. Measure chest to tail, along the side of the body across the widest part of the shoulder and hindquarters. If you land between sizes, size up — a snug fit causes pinching and rubs.

Reviews

Quality and lasts!

"This is a good quality every day blanket for my boy as he’s growing. I love Snyder’s products and this one is a good budget buy for this guy. This blanket has held up well I’m still looks great for the coming season. I love Schneider’s products. Even the Budget ones are very good and reliable and made to be very high-quality."

Rebecca (5/5)

Keeps my old guy warm!

"It was time to replace my 22 year-old gelding’s heavy blanket. Of course Snyder’s is my first stop and they had this nice blanket on great sale! The only color in his size was purple, but he seems OK with it and I’m OK with it because of the price lol! This blanket is great. Quality and I feel confident that my boy is warm on our extreme freezing days. Thank you for offering great quality products on great sale prices."
