StormShield® II Blankets are meticulously crafted to provide your horse unparalleled protection against harsh weather conditions. Made with new and improved waterproof and breathability ratings, these blankets are more waterproof than competitive brands and offer exceptional breathability, ensuring that your horse stays dry, comfortable, and well-ventilated. The lack of side and back seams helps create an extremely waterproof blanket, plus adds strength and durability to the blanket, so you’ll have peace of mind that your horse is always dry. No matter how playful they are in the pasture, StormShield® II Blankets will keep your horse cozy and protected, allowing them to enjoy the outdoors to the fullest.
Our StormShield® II Blankets are available in different fit options that keep your horse protected and comfortable - no matter their shape or size.
Our Contour Collar turnout blankets have a seam-sealed shaped collar that fits snugger around the neck to provide greater protection in wet, windy weather. Designed to drape comfortably on low and medium-withered horses and adapts well to most conformations with a generous drop for good coverage. Fleece at the wither.
Our Attached Neck Euro turnout blankets fit straight from the withers through the back for a comfortable fit for ALL breeds. The attached neck prevents the blanket from slipping forward, maintaining coverage no matter the conditions. With the Attached Neck Euro Fit, your horse will be protected from ears to tail.
Our High Neck Euro turnout blankets fit straight from the withers through the back for a comfortable fit for ALL breeds. With this fit, your horse will have their shoulders and withers fully covered with additional coverage halfway up the neck. No matter the breed, your horse will be comfortable in the High Neck Euro fit.
You’ll find the StormShield® blankets in two materials: The Classic II and Extreme II. All these styles are extremely durable, making them a long-lasting investment for your horse’s comfort.
Our Classic II series of StormShield® blankets are made from a 1200D ripstop polyester that offers a tough durability rating for the moderately playful horse that runs, jumps, or roughhouses with their pasture mates. We back both of these styles by a 1-year warranty.
The StormShield® Extreme II series is made from a more durable 1680D polyester that offers extreme durability for the active horse! This blanket is sturdy, offers good movement range, and stands up to your horse that regularly engages in vigorous play. Backed by a 2-year warranty.
All the above blanket styles are designed with a special Schneiders logo, nylon lining that’s breathable and keeps your horse’s coat soft, smooth, and shiny throughout the season.
The criss-cross surcingle closure option self-adjusts to keep the blanket from sliding from side to side. Comes with locking bands and detachable elastic leg straps for increased security.
The bellyband closure option adds additional protection from harsh weather. The hardware comes with locking bands and is positioned to avoid rubbing or poking while your horse is lying down. 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.

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 have always chose Schneiders for my Ali's blankets because of the service and the information/education prior to selecting the right fit. The fist blankets I purchased were worth the money spent as they are all still in excellent condition. Good quality fabrics and durability. My Ali loves his blankets! We thank you and appreciate your customer services! Carrie and Ali"
"My horse Beau loves this blanket, this is the second winter I have used it and it still looks like brand new!! It fits perfectly and is the proper weight for our winters here in Northern Nevada! I also bought the matching turnout sheet because I like this blanket so much!! The color makes him look so handsome!! I will buy this blanket again!!"
"I recently purchased this turnout blanket for a gelding who had surgery in February. He was kept under lights at the Veterinary Hospital and started to shed his coat. It was the perfect weight for what we needed and such good quality, we ended up buying a second one! We were especially excited about the two different closures offered. Very happy horse and human in Kansas!"
"Horrible blanket. Didn’t last 1 season. I sent pictures of the destruction and was told that they wouldn’t refund or replace it. I was offered a 20% coupon off a new blanket. I would seriously look at the year these sale blankets were made bc they won’t warranty them."
"I had higher hopes for this sheet. The hardware on the rear straps broke immediately. Additionally, it gets very damp under the the sheet. Otherwise, it fits my geriatric halflinger very well, I just wish it was higher quality for the price."
"We had recently adopted a senior rescue horse who still needed a bit more weight. Before the cold really had made way to us, I came out in the morning to find my old guy shivering (low 40’s). I immediately ordered a blanket from Schneiders and it arrived quickly so he was able to wear it before the colder temps arrived. Very easy to put on and it fit fantastic! He really seemed happy to have it on during the cold spell. Thanks to Schneiders for the great product and delivery!"
"Very nice blanket. I love the front Velcro and clip on hooks. So much better than a buckle. Belly wrap is good too, because it adds warmth under his belly and helps the blanket stay on. What I don’t like, are the leg straps. Seems like all blankets have leg wraps that don’t work good. I have mine as small as I can get it and it loosens up too much it’s hanging by the next day. Otherwise great blanket."
"I bought two of these sheets. One for a quarter horse cross and other for draft cross. I love the fit for both!! Also they both had a rainy day turnout and both stay dry!"
"I bought this sheet about a year ago for my draft cross gelding. It fits him great and has a decent drop on the sides which is great for chunkier horses. I love Schneider's blankets because you can get a great deal on a quality product, especially when they have sales going on. Plus, I love that they offer different warranties/guarantees on their blankets. The only reason this is 4 stars instead of 5 is because the stitching on the rubber triangle by the shoulder ripped one of the first times my gelding wore the sheet. He gets himself into some sticky situations, so who knows what he did. The waterproofing wasn't impacted at all, so I didn't file a claim for a new blanket."
"I emailed Schneiders and they made sure the fit was correct before I bought it. My horse is a 16h at the shoulder, 15. 3 at the butt, 1,100 pound, narrow-chested Dutch harness with a longer body. The challenger cutback II rubbed below the point of his shoulder due to it not being the correct style for him. After their help though I bought this one, which works perfectly."
