Great Value With Amigo Horse Rugs

By Kendra Hood


Amigo horse rugs have receive outstanding reviews from owners all over the country. They are carefully designed to fit the exact contours of a horses body. In addition they are made from only the highest quality fabrics that will last for many years. Most of the products are also machine washable making them very easy to keep clean.

A traditional rug was very heavy and practically impossible to keep clean. They were made of an outer shell of thick canvas lined with blanketing material. Although they did the job there were often a number of issues. These included the animal being rubbed on the chest and shoulders from the friction of rough fabric. The rug was also prone to leaks and dampness, leaving many animals cold and uncomfortable.

The Amigo company recognized these problems and knew there was a ready market for a new improved design. So, they went right back to the basics and completely redesigned horse clothing. Gone were the thick heavy fabrics and difficult fasteners, to be replaced by state of the art light weight materials and easy to use closures. These are so much easier to use especially on cold winter nights when fingers are freezing.

Most owners like to have a set of blankets just for shows. They are usually in their stable colors and help to make them feel like part of the team. The traditional cotton sheet with a navy blue or red edging is still very popular. However, bright new colors are also become much more common especially with the young riders.

There is nothing like the adorable combination of a little girl and her pony. Many youngsters love to dress up their much loved mount with a bright pink or purple show sheet. Not only is it very distinctive, but it helps them to keep track of all their equipment at the show ground. Amigo is leading the way with the production of an extensive range of wonderfully bright yet still practical rugs for ponies.

Because many of the people that ride are women and girls their is a serious market for fun yet functional products. These riders are really doing their homework before making a purchase and do spend time comparison shopping. They want a rug that will stand up to really hard work and last for several seasons. Value for money is also a primary consideration.

It is now very easy to shop on line. In fact, most people do more of their shopping on line that at a retail outlet. If they have questions the customer service department is standing by ready to help. Measuring horses for a rug does take a few minuets but the staff will be able to help and offer advice.

The Amigo brand is available in many local retail outlets. Riders and owners should check with their local tack store. Alternatively they can shop on line and have the new rug shipped to their home or barn.
