Sold and shipped by Sport & Go EU
The Bucas Freedom Turnout + Neck 100 is a waterproof, breathable turnout rug with a neck and 100 g of fill. It protects not just the back and flanks but the neck as well from rain and wind. It is meant for horses living out in autumn, winter and early spring that can do with some insulation. The main benefit: rug and neck in one purchase, in 600 denier Ripstop with a Dermo-care lining and the slim Freedom cut.
About this turnout rug
With a standard turnout rug the neck stays uncovered. Often that is no problem, but in persistent rain and wind it is exactly where a horse gets wet. The Freedom Turnout + Neck 100 is supplied with a neck, so that area is covered too. Bucas describes the cut as Classic + Neck.
The 100 g of thermobonded polyester sits between the light 50 g and the 300 g winter fill: enough to take the edge off cold and wind, without the warmth of a heavy winter rug. The outer is waterproof with a hydrostatic head above 5000 mm and breathable at more than 3000 g/24h/m², so moisture from the horse can escape. It is woven as 600 denier Ripstop, a weave that makes tears less likely and stops them spreading. The Dermo-care lining is silky, wicks moisture away and keeps the coat smooth.
We like to be precise about the neck. Bucas supplies this rug with a neck, but does not specify whether it is detachable, nor whether it is filled. So we do not claim either. If using the neck separately matters to you, ask us before you order.
The front closure is an overlap T-bar with a hook-and-loop strap. Cross surcingles, a tail flap and a fillet string keep the rug in place, and there are attachment points for leg straps. Like every Freedom, this rug has no shoulder darts: it is the only slim fit Bucas makes. Narrow horses and thoroughbred types take their normal size. Cob types, or horses with a long distance from withers to the front of the chest, may find the fit tight. For them the Bucas Irish Turnout 50 + Neck, with shoulder darts, is the better choice.
A turnout rug is not tied to any discipline. This one serves any horse that lives out, whether you ride dressage, showjumping, eventing or for pleasure.
