10 Reviews: Best Heavyweight Horse Blanket (Sep 2023)

This Showman 420 denier quilted nylon blanket has a 420 denier outer shell, a 70 denier ripstop lining, 300-gram polyester fill, and nylon bound edges. The fitting, contoured form and shoulder gussets enable the horse to move freely while the fleece wither protection and tail cover hold the blanket in place. Standard open front with adjustable double buckle closures and secures with two adjustable surcingles under the horse’s belly and two adjustable leg straps for extra security.

The Dura-Tech® Viking Traditional Euro Turnout Blanket is intended to fit directly from the withers to the back, providing additional protection. To prevent leaks in the rain and snow, there is no back seam. Fleece at the wither for added comfort and rubbing resistance. The double-buckle front with Hook & Loop Closure enables you to modify the degree of snugness at the front of the chest to your liking. The smooth, shiny nylon inside is completely breathable and will keep your horse’s coat bright and dust-free.

Great blanket for the price, I have always used weatherbeta but this blanket was on sale and I am very happy with my purchase! It's outer shell is softer than a weatherbeta but repels rain, and mud well. Would recommend and buy again!

With the sewn-in name label on the Dura-Tech® Viking Traditional Euro Turnout Blanket, you can write your horse’s name and the blanket’s weight with any permanent marker. This blanket is made to cover you from head to toe, from front to back. To prevent rain and snow from leaking through the back seams, this raincoat was designed without one. Fleece at the withers for additional comfort and rubbing resistance.

The little pony I have I rescued and he has come to enjoy the nicer things in life. He looks forward to his blanket on cold nights.

This heavyweight stable blanket keeps your horse warm in inclement weather. The breathable Dura-Nylon® 420 denier nylon exterior keeps your horse cool, and the “Original” Adjusta-Fit® System allows you to modify the size of the neck up to 2″ for a perfect fit regardless of your horse’s shape. The Deep V Closed front has a deeper cut, enabling your horse to lower his head without pushing the blanket forward, eliminating irritation or friction.

I bought a 450 gram stable for colder days it fits a,aging the color is amazing just love their products

Contour Collar turnout blankets feature a seam-sealed contoured collar that fits snugger around the neck and provides more protection in wet, windy conditions. With a large drop for adequate coverage, it is designed to drape comfortably on low and medium withered horses and fits well to most conformations. StormShield blankets are 5 times more waterproof than competing products. The outer fabric is tough and designed to withstand light play.

It is waterproof and I have layered it over a heavyweight stable blanket. Temps have been zero to 20 degrees and my mare has been warm. In a bad snow storm the snow piled up on the blanket but she stayed dry.

This thick stable blanket keeps your horse warm in the winter. With the “Original” Adjusta-Fit® System, you can achieve a bespoke fit no matter what shape your horse is, thanks to the breathable Dura-Nylon® 420 denier nylon exterior. The revolutionary Adjusta-Accommodate® mechanism adjusts the neck opening to fit any horse’s width or head carriage, from broad to narrow or high to low.

My horse in indoors and I will only use Schneider bellyband blankets on her. They are VERY well made and last for years. Truly worth the money!

This additional covering option is a heavy-duty waterproof turnout blanket that keeps your horse comfy and dry no matter how rough he or she gets in the pasture. High neck and full neck styles provide additional protection against rainy and windy conditions. The lack of a rear seam prevents leaking, so you’ll never have to worry about a wet horse. This model has you covered whether you need a heavyweight turnout blanket for the cold winter days or a waterproof turnout sheet to keep your horse safe and dry on rainy days.

Have never bought a blanket with a bellyband before. Will never go back ! The blankets stay in place while allowing full range of movement.

The waterproof turnout blankets and sheets from Warrior keep your horse delighted and dry no matter how rough they play in the field. The inner layer of Aridity Bamboo Charcoal wicks moisture away from the horse, making them more comfortable throughout temperature swings. The expanded tail cover provides greater wind and weather protection. Extended gussets with 3M reflective patches and a tail stripe for increased visibility at sunset or during the nighttime pullout.

It doesn't get really cold here but it does get wet and my horses are out overnight so this turnout blanket works well keeping them dry but not too overheated (it is medium weight and usually it doesn't get below 30).

This extra-heavyweight stable blanket keeps your horse comfortable and toasty in the stable. Breathability keeps your horse cool, and the “Original” Adjusta-Fit® System allows you to modify the size of the neck up to 2″ for a perfect fit no matter what shape your horse is. When the temperature falls below 40 degrees F, it becomes heavyweight. Heavyweight blankets should be worn below 30 degrees F if your horse has a medium or thick coat.

We have some of these that are over 15 years old, and with minimum maintenance and washing in a regular washing machine, have maintained their warmth and fit. Great blankets!

The waterproof turnout blankets and sheets from Challenger ensure your horse is thrilled and dry no matter how they play in the grasslands. This blanket has 5X the waterproofing of other products, so you’ll never have to worry about a wet horse again. VTEK® Wither relief blankets, which are patented, are meant to avoid friction and alleviate pressure on high to moderate withers. They are specifically created for Thoroughbreds, Warmbloods, Appendix horses, and horses with Upright Shoulder Conformation.

The fit is True to size. This coat is very durable and made with excellent quality materials! Love it! Our horse is a beefy large quarter horse, with high withers it covers him well!
