Lightweight Turnout Rug for Wet Weather Comfort
When spring showers or summer downpours strike, the Shires Tempest Original Lite Turnout Rug in teal offers lightweight, waterproof protection without added warmth. Designed for warmer wet weather, this standard horse rug keeps your horse dry and comfortable out in the field.
Made from a tough 600 denier ripstop outer, it’s built to handle daily wear while staying breathable and fully lined for comfort. Shires’ ShireTex® fabric technology, taped seams and a durable water repellent finish provide reliable waterproofing with 3000mm resistance and breathability of 3000g/m² — ideal for active horses in variable weather.
The rug features adjustable buckle chest straps, cross surcingles, a tail flap and a fillet strap to ensure a secure, stay-put fit. It’s also WarmaRug compatible, so you can boost the warmth rating by adding a 100g or 200g liner as needed.
Finished in a vibrant teal with smart Shires styling, it’s a sensible, go-to layer for rainy days and unpredictable skies.
Keep your horse dry and happy, whatever the weather throws at you.
