Bucas Smartex Extra Big Neck Rug Blue

The Bucas Smartex Extra Big Neck Rug is designed specifically for horses with a broader build, such as stallions and breeds like Friesians, Andalusians and Draughts. Combining a generous fit with exceptional weather protection, this rug is part of the Bucas Smartex range – widely regarded as one of the most versatile and reliable turnout collections available.

This heavyweight turnout rug features a robust 1680D ballistic nylon outer for outstanding durability, making it suitable for daily wear in harsh winter conditions. It is fully waterproof (over 5000 mm hydrostatic head) and breathable (over 3000 g/24h/m²) to ensure your horse remains dry and comfortable throughout turnout.

With 300g of insulation, the Smartex Extra Big Neck Rug provides excellent warmth during cold weather. It also features Bucas’ innovative Stay-dry fleece lining, which allows you to put the rug on a wet horse without the need for drying first. The lining wicks away moisture quickly, drying the coat while staying dry against the skin. This helps reduce rug changes and promotes all-day comfort. An added silk-feel shoulder lining helps prevent rubbing and preserves coat condition.

The Big Neck cut offers more space around the neck and shoulders, allowing for a better fit on larger-framed horses. It includes Bucas’ Click’n Go front closure with magnetic Snap-lock, shoulder darts for improved movement, cross surcingles, deluxe leg straps, a tail flap, and a deluxe tail cord for a secure and adjustable fit. It also comes with neck attachment points and liner compatibility, giving you extra flexibility for layering with Bucas liners, quilts and coolers.
