SIZE GUIDES

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HORSE FOR A RUG

With a fabric tape measure or twine, measure from the middle of the chest where the rug would fasten, around the curves of the shoulder, following the body in a straight line to the furthest point of the hind quarters - but not all the way to the tail. We recommend measuring in cm for the most accuracy and to be sure you have got the correct measurement, it is a good idea to measure 2-3 times. This measurement can be used as a guide for your rug size, if you are still unsure please call 01254 279666 for further help.

Epic rugs are now available in our original heavy horse Broad Fit, for heavy weight horses & ponies, and a Regular Fit, for light-medium weight horses & ponies.

So pleased with this rug

This rug is just the best fit and quality for my horse. He's a big Irish horse and fits him beautifully

Thank you so much the big horse company ❤️

I have recently bought a broad fit sweet itch rug and 2 0g rugs and a ride on fly rug and an exercise sheet. What can I say the 0g rugs are the best ever I have not had a 0g that has not leaked through in heavy rain this one does not leak through.
The quality is impressive the fit is fantastic for my big Irish cob. I won’t be shopping anywhere else for rugs again. 100% recommend.

Perfect

My horse is a seriously big, solidly built 16hh heavyweight cob and the 6ft 9in Broad fit is a very comfortable fit for him. It's beautifully made and is superb quality. Very good value for money but, more than that, worth its weight in gold to have a rug that fits such a big lad so beautifully. Thank you so much for catering for our big horses.

Lovely rug but not a good fit

A last minute purchase before a show. The rug itself is lovely, great material and well made but sadly the 6’3” even broad fit wasn’t big enough for my 16.1hh 3yo WB. Hairs left when trying on mean I can’t return it but tempted to buy a bigger one.

Sweetitch rugs

Brilliant fit for my chunky girl, I also like the different colours, so can swap over and rotate rugs. Have recently bought two of the sweetitch rugs and also a shower proof sweet itch. Louise rocking it.
