Choosing the Right Wool Horse Cooler
Choosing the right cooler for your horse is important. All horse owners need a horse cooler that will warm and dry your horse after a long workout, keep him polished after getting a pre-show bath, and look flawless during show season. Here we will walk you through the many factors to consider when selecting a wool horse cooler:
Wool Material - Arguably the most important factor when choosing a horse cooler is the material. Wool is a great material for coolers because it wicks moisture away from the horse's coat and it is extremely durable and easy to wash. Wool horse coolers are generally used more often in the winter because they are very warm.
Straps - The security of the straps on a wool horse cooler is also very important. Most horse coolers do not have extensive straps because they are not meant to be worn for long periods of time. If your horse is a blanket destroyer or simply likes to roll and buck in the pasture while wearing a cooler you may want to opt for a horse cooler with better straps.
Fit - Making sure your horse wool cooler fits properly is a critical factor. If you are unsure look at the size chart of the cooler you decide to buy. If you don't know your horse's blanket size try measuring them or putting on a friend's blanket. Buying an ill fitting horse cooler could cause discomfort.
Thickness - Horse wool coolers usually have different thickness options for different climates. Horses working in the extremely cold weather will need a thick cooler to be comfortable after they exercise. Conversely, horses working in moderately cold climates will need a thin horse cooler sheet. If you only want to buy one horse cooler blanket, choose the thickness for the coldest days in your climate. Riders can also opt to buy a horse cooler with neck attachment to provide extra protection from the cold.
Color - Finally, you should choose a wool horse cooler that aligns with your style. We offer a variety of colors and styles for riders to choose from.
