About the product

The WeatherBeeta ComFiTec Tyro 50g Turnout Rug blends functionality with performance and comfort, all at a great value price! This WeatherBeeta rug features a tough 600 denier ripstop outer with repel shell coating that is both waterproof and breathable with a versatile 50g of polyfill. The 210 denier strong and durable lining is smooth, providing less friction and rubbing of the coat while enhancing shine with antibacterial properties which assist in ensuring it doesn’t absorb sweat and moisture.

What were your first impressions?

Loved the Colour and how light the rug was!

How was the sizing & fit?

Fit was perfect for Quince. He is quite a compact fine WB 2-year-old so it can be a little hard to find one that isn’t too short and too long on him.

How did you test the product?

The rug was tested with Quince wearing it out in the awful weather we have recently had. I went for the 50g as he isn’t clipped yet and we still had sunny days, so the idea was he would stay dry and warm but not get too hot on the sunnier/warmer days. He is out with two other colts so they can play a little rough sometimes but the rug has held up really well. No rips, keeping him dry and not sweating! I also love the fact that when it gets really bad and he may need a neck, you are able to purchase a separate neck to attach as it has the D-rings to do so. 

What was your favourite feature?

My favourite features of this rug to me are the ability to attach a separate neck and also the toughness of this rug when turning out with the other boisterous boys. He also looks super stylish in the colour!
