A fleece horse cooler is a quick-dry layer used after work or after washing to wick sweat away while the horse cools down. Fleece is breathable and dries quickly, which prevents the horse chilling as the sweat evaporates. Coolers are not designed for stable rest or turnout - they're a transitional layer for the post-work window.
When should I use a fleece horse cooler?
Use a cooler immediately after work on a sweaty horse, or after washing the horse before turning out or stabling. Most riders use a cooler for 30-60 minutes post-work, then change to a stable rug or turnout depending on the horse's situation.
What fleece horse cooler brands do you stock?
Kentucky Horsewear Heavy Fleece Rug Square Stripes and the Horse Duvet 300G can both work as a cooler layer. Dyon Beige Honeycomb Cooler (in horse rugs) is a more dedicated cooler pattern.
How do I size a fleece horse cooler?
Standard horse rug sizing applies - measure from chest centre to point of buttock. Coolers can fit slightly looser than turnout rugs since they're not weather-rated.
