Horse Blankets — Outdoor, Stable, and Anti-Fly in Leather Care
Updated: May 2026 · Written by the Rincón del Valle technical team
Choosing among horse blankets — turnout, stable, and leather fly sheets with care requires understanding which need you are covering: stable, turnout, fly, or drying. Each type has its moment.
What to consider when choosing horse blankets — turnout, stable, and leather fly sheets with care?
Below, we review the technical criteria that have the most impact on the final decision. These are the same criteria we apply in the store when a customer asks us.
- Weight. No fill (0g) for summer and drying, 100-200g for mid-season, 300-400g for winter. Clipped horses need more fill.
- Waterproofness. For turnout, measured in millimeters of water column: 1,500 mm minimum, 3,000 mm ideal for rainy areas like Galicia.
- Size. Measured from the center of the chest to the base of the tail. This measurement in cm is the blanket size (95 to 175 cm for standard horses).
- Closure System. Double cross surcingles for greater stability; tail flap optional but recommended for turnout.
