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.

What Horse Owners Are Saying

★★★★★
This is my first Schneider‘s blanket and I am never going back to buying higher price brands that don’t deliver the high-quality of this product! The fit is perfect and construction is excellent. I expect this blanket to last for a very long time!
Julie H. — StormShield® owner ✓ Verified
★★★★★
I love how this fits on my high withered girl, no rubs at all. The shoulder gussets offer total shoulder freedom. This is the best fitting blanket I have found for my TB. Also the medium fill is a nice weight, a little warmth but not overkill. Has kept my girl comfortable is 20-40 degree temps .
Danielle K. — StormShield® owner ✓ Verified
★★★★★
Storm shield blankets are one of the best. They fit perfectly and the waterproofing lasts for a long time. Itâs comforting to know that your horse will always be dry, and I really love that the current blankets are sewn with reflective thread! Itâs easy to spot horses in the dark. The sales are great, too.

Key benefits

Contour Collar Euro Fit

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. It may also suit horses that are slightly downhill, where the hindquarters sit higher than the wither.

Made with no back seam to guard against leakage in the rain and snow, with fleece at the wither for extra comfort and protection against rubbing.

Multiple Warmth Levels for All Weather Types

On those bitter cold, windy or snowy days our Heavyweight turnout blankets, stuffed with 380 Grams of toasty Insulation, are the best choice. If your horse is body-clipped or has a short, thin coat, choose Heavyweight when the temperature drops below 40 degrees F. If your horse has a medium or thick coat, Heavyweight blankets should be worn below 30 degrees F.

Bellyband Closure Provides Greater Protection

Bellyband closure provides greater coverage and protection from the cold. Hardware is positioned to avoid rubbing or poking while your horse is lying down, and the rear surcingle includes a stretch panel for more give as the horse moves, since the proper fit is with the bellyband snug and flush to the belly. Comes with locking bands and elastic leg straps for increased security. Brass plated hardware resists corrosion from water, manure and detergents.

Front Snap for Easy On and Off

Snap front with Hook & Loop Closure allows you to adjust to the perfect amount of snugness at the front of the chest. Double snaps allow for easy on and off.

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.

Large Tail Cover

Enlarged tail cover provides additional protection from heavy wind and rain.

Leg Straps Included

Detachable elastic leg straps help keep the blanket in place. Our leg straps adjust from 20” to 38” and will stretch as the horse moves. Set at optimum snugness and use the chrome-plated snaps for easy on and off.

Guaranteed for 2 Years

This blanket has been constructed with extra care and is warrantied for two years.

Reviews

NONE Better

"I have these in all 3 weights. They are the most durable blankets That I have ever used. All of mine have been machine washed and machine dried at least 15 times and still look new! My horses are turned out for 6 hours a day, they roll , buck, play hard. They completely in place. Love these!!!"

— Sherrie (5/5)

Worth the price!

"Perfect fit, warm but not too warm, and my 4 year old Mustang has yet to rip it! The clasps are strong and safe AND easy on & off. I’ll never buy another blanket!"

— Savannah I. (5/5)

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."

— Rebecca (5/5)

"Love this blanket. Everyone in the barn, but the youngsters wears one. Does not fit the young ones well though."

— COWENS (5/5)

BEST Fitting Blanket

"This blanket has to be, by far, the BEST fitting blanket I have bought in probably over 15 years. The front closure comes up HIGHER and closes way better than other blankets. Each of my girls have their own colors and I have been trying to find these blankets for my other two horses. The horse that I bought it for, literally got her bottom teeth and jaw caught in the front closure of her previous blanket. She panicked, fell, got up and had her head held high up, pulling it tight on her jaw. When I got to her and was able to calm her enough to undo the front closures she had ripped the entire front of the blanket and the sides of her mouth were bleeding a little. The old blanket could not be tightened enough and hung too low on her chest with too much gap. This new blanket (same size as the previous) comes up higher and closes so much better with way less gap. I normally get 2-3 years out of each blanket and try to keep two on hand for each horse. I'm hoping to buy more of them."

— Yvette (5/5)

great quality

"I have several of these in all different weights for my horses and can use the hoods on all of them when needed. love the colors too."

— RACHEL B. (5/5)
