I had always struggled to find a fleece that didn’t slip backwards over my horses’ withers and after trying several different brands, varying in price, I came across the Weatherbeeta fleece cooler! I have had several of these fleeces over the years now and I haven’t got anything negative to say about them, they fit well, the sizing is accurate and of course the quality is fabulous. Although, I wouldn’t expect anything less from Weatherbeeta!

The Weatherbeeta fleece coolers are perfect for everything, I use them on both of my horses for travelling, drying, stabling, cooling off and sometimes as an underlayer. So far, I have not had a single one of these that has become damaged and they have proven to be very durable, I only replace them to get the latest colours and I’m always spoilt for choice!

I wash my coolers in my washing machine at home and they always come out as good as new and don’t become bobbly like other fleece rugs that I have previously tried. The lined shoulders on the Weatherbeeta fleece is probably my favourite feature (as well as the funky prints) as it prevents rubbing and stretching, provides a professional appearance and I also think it helps secure the rug so that it doesn’t slip back over the withers. I like that these fleece coolers are fitted with low cross surcingle’s, twin chest straps and a tail cord because it enables them to be used as a proper rug (I have noticed that other branded fleece coolers have Velcro at the chest and only a single strap underneath, therefore I would rather not use them as stable rugs and under rugs because they will probably come undone).

Priced from just £42.99 which I think is very reasonable for the quality and range of colours/prints which are unavailable with other brands, I think the Weatherbeeta fleece cooler is exceptional value for money and I will always return to buy the latest one to add to my small collection!
