Dura-Nylon® Adjusta-Fit® VTEK® Senior Medium Weight Stable Blanket
The Dura-Nylon® Adjusta-Fit® VTEK® Senior Medium Weight Stable Blanket is specially designed with the unique needs of your senior horses in mind. As senior horses often lose muscle mass and gain more prominent bone structure, fitting them with regular blankets can cause irritating rubs. However, we've extended our patented VTEK® Wither Relief 4" forward on the withers to increase coverage over the shoulder and wither areas. In addition, Memory Foam has been added to the wither area, shoulder line, and hip panels. Your Senior horse often loses mass in these areas, and the bone structure becomes more prominent. The memory foam is an additional layer of protection from rubs and sores as your older horse may lay down more.
- Constructed from a breathable 420D nylon outer shell with 280 grams of medium-weight insulation
- Extended for full coverage on the withers and shoulder areas
- Adjusta-Fit® system for 2" of adjustments, accommodating young or narrow-chested horses
- Incorporates memory foam padding in the wither, shoulder line, and hip panels
- Front features snaps and hook and loop closures
- Criss-cross surcingles provide a custom fit, preventing any unwanted sliding
- Detachable elastic leg straps included
- Warranty: 2 years
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.
