When it comes to ensuring your horse's comfort during turnout, the 5/A Baker® Medium Weight Turnout Blanket 200 Gram offers the perfect blend of durability, warmth, and protection. For horse owners who prioritize their horse’s wellbeing, especially English-style equestrians who appreciate the value of premium equine gear, this blanket delivers reliable performance and style. Designed for horses that spend time outdoors, this medium-weight turnout blanket provides warmth without bulk, shielding your horse from the elements while keeping them comfortable and dry.
At 5/A Baker, we understand the bond between horse and rider. This connection drives our commitment to producing the highest-quality horse clothing and accessories. The 5/A Baker® Medium Weight Turnout Blanket 200 Gram is not just another piece of horse gear—it’s an investment in your horse’s health, comfort, and happiness.
Protection from the Elements
Whether your horse is turned out in the rain, snow, or mud, the 5/A Baker® Medium Weight Turnout Blanket ensures they remain protected from the harshest conditions. Made with a tough, 1500 denier polyester ripstop fabric, this blanket is designed to withstand the wear and tear of outdoor turnout, including rolling, running, and rough play. The ripstop weave is specifically engineered to prevent small tears from spreading, ensuring long-lasting durability even in the most demanding environments.
The outer fabric is also treated with DuPont Teflon fabric protector, which adds an extra layer of defense against dirt, moisture, and stains. Whether your horse enjoys a playful roll in the mud or a run through wet grass, this fabric will keep them clean and dry.
The 3,000mm waterproof rating guarantees that rain and moisture won’t penetrate the blanket, while the 3,000mvp breathability rating ensures that sweat and body heat can escape. This balance of waterproofing and breathability is crucial to maintaining your horse’s comfort during changing weather conditions. Horses can easily overheat or become damp if moisture is trapped under the blanket, but with the 5/A Baker® Medium Weight Turnout Blanket, your horse stays dry, warm, and comfortable.
Warmth Without Bulk
When winter temperatures drop, providing warmth is a priority for horse owners. The 5/A Baker® Medium Weight Turnout Blanket is designed to offer just the right amount of insulation, thanks to its 200 grams of Curvofil IV insulation. This medium-weight fill provides excellent warmth for horses in colder conditions without the bulk of a heavyweight blanket, making it a versatile choice for horses that need protection in mild to cold weather.
The insulation layer is ideal for horses that require a blanket that can keep them warm while still allowing freedom of movement. Whether your horse is turned out for a few hours or most of the day, this blanket ensures they stay warm and cozy without restricting their natural behavior or causing overheating.
Thoughtfully Designed for Comfort and Fit
The 5/A Baker® Medium Weight Turnout Blanket is designed not only for protection but also for your horse’s comfort. The blanket features fleece at the withers, which provides an extra layer of cushioning to prevent rubbing and irritation. This is particularly important for horses that wear their blankets for extended periods, as it reduces pressure points and ensures a more comfortable fit.
The black polysatin lining inside the blanket is smooth against your horse’s coat, helping to reduce friction and keep their coat sleek and polished. This feature is especially beneficial for show horses or horses with sensitive skin, as it prevents the blanket from causing any unnecessary discomfort or hair loss.
The blanket also includes gusseted shoulders, which allow for greater freedom of movement. Your horse can run, play, and roll with ease, without feeling restricted by the blanket. The contoured rump with tail flap provides added protection for your horse’s hindquarters, ensuring that even in windy or rainy conditions, your horse stays fully covered and protected.
Secure and Adjustable Features
To ensure a secure and comfortable fit, the 5/A Baker® Medium Weight Turnout Blanket comes with several adjustable features. The 2 nylon front straps are equipped with grommets and buckles, allowing you to adjust the fit around your horse’s chest for a snug and secure closure. Additionally, the reinforced front panel features a 2-inch Velcro “stay put” feature, which helps keep the blanket in place even during vigorous activity.
The crossed surcingles with elastic provide added stability, preventing the blanket from shifting or slipping while your horse moves. These surcingles, along with the detachable and adjustable leg straps, ensure that the blanket stays securely in place, no matter how much your horse rolls, runs, or plays.
For even more versatility, the blanket includes four 2-inch nylon and Velcro straps that allow you to attach a matching neck cover, providing full-body protection for your horse in the harshest weather conditions.
