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.

"I purchased this blanket to replace my geldings old blankets. He is also getting older, and a stock-type horse, so I was a little worried about finding something that would fit and be comfortable. What I like about this blanket is the extra padding, generous cut, and the higher neck to keep the shoulders dry. It has held up well over its first year, very happy with my purchase and looking forward to more years with this blanket!"
"No complaints!! This sheet has held up well, fits as it should and has high quality buckles."
"I have had this less than one season but so far it is working well, fits my horse great, the high neck is a really nice feature that I love. It is a PAIN to try and fold and store/hang bc of the memory foam but I don't think you can really get away from that, just something to be aware of if you have limited storage or hanging/folding space!"
"This blanket is like no other my horse has ever worn in quality, comfort and fit. My slender senior horse, if he could talk, would tell you that he loves the thoughtful details of the padding at hips, shoulders and withers for his comfort when he lays down or is turned out in the open fields during cold windy weather. Your staff were by far the most helpful of any company I shopped with in choosing the right style blanket to meet his fit and lifestyle needs. Thank you for the blanket storage bag too! The blanket warranty is another plus for the investment in this purchase. Due to this great experience, I will be a return customer and appreciate the high-quality products and your helpful staff when I called and emailed my questions."
