Measuring Instructions:
Stand your horse as square as possible,
and measure from the center of chest around side of the body to the point of
the horse's rump just before the tail. If your horse ends up measuring between
sizes, always round up to the next size to ensure full coverage.
Washing Instructions:
To keep your blanket as comfortable as
possible for your horse and to maximize the blanket's life, it is recommended
that you clean your blanket annually. First, remove excess dirt from the
outside of the blanket with a brush and hose. The blanket can then be washed
either by hand, or on a delicate cycle with cool water in a commercial washer.
Use only very mild soap. When the blanket has been washed, allow to drip dry
and ensure that the blanket is thoroughly dry before storage. Do not put your
horse's blanket in the dryer or wash with hot water. Do not store your horse's
blanket if damp or wet. This will damage the waterproof coating and void any
warranties.
Horses Turned Outside Without Shelter:
Kensington Turnout Sheet and Blanket materials are waterproof and designed to
keep your horse dry. However, if your horse is turned out in a field without a run-in
shed or shelter during prolonged rain or heavy downpours, your horse may still
get wet, especially in the neck and tail areas.
When using a blanket or sheet, it is critical to monitor the fluctuating
climate and temperatures, even with a blanket that is waterproof and
breathable. The wicking properties of a breathable blanket are designed to wick
away normal body heat. When a blanket is too heavy, the heat and moisture
cannot be wicked away fast enough, causing your horse to sweat. The temperature
and the length of your horse’s coat will determine what weight of blanket you
should use. For this reason, most people who choose to blanket horses have
several articles of horse clothing that offer varying levels of warmth.
