The "Glasgow" rain sheet without filling is the ideal solution for horses that need reliable protection from rain and wind in mild temperatures without added warmth. It is suitable for both clipped and unclipped horses. Thanks to its high breathability and the waterproof (5,000 mm), extremely durable 1200D ripstop outer fabric, the rug offers optimal comfort in changeable weather and heavy rainfall. As a flexible transitional and year-round rug, it can be combined with under rugs when required, allowing it to adapt at any time to the individual needs of the horse and prevailing weather conditions.

• Hook&Hold – flexible combinations, secure fixation: Our smart solution helps you quickly and securely connect SUNRIDE outer and under blankets. Featuring a loop and Velcro closure in the front and a practical clip system in the back, everything stays in place – even during movement. This system is a flexible companion, especially in rapidly changing weather. You can combine a maximum of two underrugs with one overblanket.

• EasyLock – gentle on the chest, easy for you: This flat closure can be opened and closed effortlessly with one hand, making blanket application quick and simple. Its unique design prevents pressure points and snagging, ensuring your horse’s comfort.

• 1200D Ripstop – maximum strength, long-lasting protection: This material, with its special weave structure, is particularly tear-resistant and durable. It provides excellent protection against external influences such as rain, wind, and dirt, while remaining long-lasting and easy to care for. Even with intensive use, the material stands up to the challenge, keeping your horse reliably protected.

• 0g Filling – expandable and versatile for any season: Lightweight protection without extra bulk. Perfect for mild temperatures and ideal for changeable weather or as a practical transitional blanket.

• 5,000 mm Waterproof Rating – reliable even in heavy rain: This high level of water resistance means that even during prolonged heavy rain, no water penetrates – keeping your horse dry. Compared to conventional blankets, the ISO-certified 5,000 mm waterproof rating offers significantly higher resistance to rain, ideal for prolonged bad weather or damp conditions.

• Breathable – moisture escapes for comfortable wear: With an ISO-certified breathability of 3,000 g/m², this blanket ensures optimal moisture regulation. Its high breathability allows sweat and excess heat to escape effectively, keeping your horse dry and comfortably tempered. Perfect for active horses or variable weather.

• Attachment for Neck Part – expandable for extra protection: The neck part perfectly complements the SUNRIDE blankets, protecting your horse's sensitive neck area from rain, wind, and cold. It can be easily attached to the blanket with a simple clip system. Especially in wet and cold weather, a neck cover helps prevent your horse from getting cold, reducing the risk of colds or muscle tension.

• Belly Straps and Detachable Leg Straps – secure fit and easy handling: The straps are individually adjustable and easy to open and close, making handling particularly simple. The leg straps are detachable, allowing you to flexibly adapt the blanket – ideal for your horse's needs.

• Reflective Elements – better visibility for more safety: The blanket’s logo and trim are made from reflective material, increasing your horse’s visibility and safety. This ensures your horse is easily recognizable from any angle, even at dusk or in the dark.

Did you know… A well-fitting, high-quality rain sheet can significantly contribute to your horse’s health? Especially in wet and cold weather, a rain sheet prevents your horse from cooling down and becoming vulnerable to illnesses. A horse constantly exposed to damp conditions can quickly develop skin irritations or even respiratory issues. A rain sheet not only protects against external influences but also helps strengthen your horse’s immune system by keeping it dry and warm. This makes a good rain sheet not just a comfort feature but also a key health factor that should not be underestimated.

FAQ for the "Glasgow" rain blanket:

Innovation

• What sets "Hook&Hold" apart from other systems?
  At SUNRIDE, you don’t need to spend time figuring out which blankets are compatible with our system, because all our top blankets – whether winter, rain, or stable blankets – come equipped with "Hook&Hold." This means you can easily attach one or even two underrugs at any time without any hassle. You can find all the details above under the "Hook&Hold" section.

• Is the "Hook&Hold" system compatible with blankets from other manufacturers?
  Our innovative combination technology has been specifically designed for our own top and underrugs and is therefore not compatible with blankets from other manufacturers. This is the only way we can ensure that all components fit together perfectly and function reliably – for maximum comfort and safety for your horse.

• How does the EasyLock closure work exactly?
  SUNRIDE's EasyLock closure allows for quick and easy fastening of the blanket: simply push the two parts of the closure together until they securely click into place. To open, press the side release, which easily unlocks the closure. The robust, glove-friendly mechanism ensures a reliable hold and maximum user-friendliness – perfect for everyday use!

• Is the EasyLock closure safe for horses?
  Yes, the EasyLock closure is absolutely safe for horses. It was specifically designed to minimize the risk of injury: all edges are rounded, and the closure lies flat, ensuring it won’t chafe or cause discomfort. Thanks to its sturdy construction, it won’t open on its own, and the placement of the closures on the blanket is carefully chosen to virtually eliminate the risk of snagging. Your horse can move safely and freely with it!

Material

• What does "1200D Ripstop" mean and why is it important?
  1200D refers to the strength and fabric of the blanket. It indicates the material density of the fabric, with "D" standing for Denier, a unit of measurement for fiber thickness. Ripstop describes a special weaving technique in which reinforced fibers are woven into a grid pattern. This structure prevents small tears from spreading, making the blanket more durable and resistant to damage. These features are particularly important to ensure the blanket remains long-lasting and resilient, even under heavy use, such as in pasture conditions or for horses that are very active.

• Is a water column of 5,000 mm sufficient for continuous rain?
  Yes, a water column of 5,000 mm is absolutely sufficient for prolonged rain. A water column indicates how much water pressure per square meter the fabric can withstand before it starts to leak. With 5,000 mm, the blanket reliably protects against heavy and persistent rain. In practice, this means that the blanket remains highly water-repellent even during intense rainfall, keeping your horse dry.

• What does ISO certified mean?
  An ISO certification for a horse blanket means that the product meets certain international standards set by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). This certification ensures that the horse blankets have been tested in various areas such as quality, safety, and environmental impact. For rain sheets, this could mean that the material is waterproof and breathable, the blanket has passed specific durability tests, and the production methods are environmentally friendly. An ISO certification provides customers with the assurance that the rain blanket is not only functional but also sustainable and of high quality.

• How easy is the material to care for?
  Our blankets are very easy to care for and can be machine washed at 30 degrees. This makes cleaning simple and quick. However, we would like to point out that repeated washing may gradually weaken the blanket's waterproof coating. To maintain the blanket’s water resistance and protection, we recommend regularly retreating it or using special waterproofing products.

• How is breathability ensured?
  The breathability of our blankets is ensured by the Ripstop fabric used, which has a permeability of 3,000 g/m². This allows moisture and heat to escape from the horse, while simultaneously keeping external moisture out. Therefore, it is important that rain sheets do not have a water column higher than 5,000 mm. A higher water column would impair breathability, causing the horse to sweat quickly under the blanket.

• Can moisture or heat accumulate under the blanket?
  Thanks to the high breathability of our blankets and the Ripstop fabric technology used, moisture and heat cannot build up under the blanket. The blanket allows for effective ventilation, so excess heat and moisture are released, while rain and moisture stay outside. This keeps your horse dry and comfortable without causing any uncomfortable heat buildup under the blanket.

• What does 3000 g/m² breathability mean?
  This specification describes how effectively moisture (e.g., sweat) is transported through the material to the outside, ensuring a comfortable climate for the horse. In this case, 3000 grams of water vapor can pass through one square meter of the material within a day. This keeps the horse dry and prevents overheating or moisture buildup.

• Can I also use the rain sheet in the summer?
  Yes, this rain blanket can also be used in summer thanks to its breathability. The breathable material ensures a comfortable climate under the blanket by transporting moisture from the inside to the outside. Our 0g blanket is particularly suitable for cooler or rainy summer days when the horse needs extra protection.

Function

• Is the neck piece included, or does it need to be purchased separately?
  The neck cover is not included and must be purchased separately. This gives you the flexibility to decide if and when you need it, allowing you to customize and expand your blanket as needed.

• Is the neck piece also waterproof and breathable?
  Yes, the neck part is also waterproof and breathable. It is made from the same material as the blanket and has the same water column rating, ensuring your horse stays optimally protected. You can find all further details on our website directly under the product.

• How visible are the reflective elements in low light or from a distance?
  At dusk and in complete darkness, the reflective elements of the blankets are extremely visible – even from a great distance. They work on the same principle as safety vests in cars, providing maximum visibility and safety for your horse. A phone flash or flashlight is enough to make the reflective elements clearly stand out.
