SIZING
Sizing
Measure your horse to find the right size.
There are 2 ways to measure your horse:
a. Chest to Tail - from the centre of the chest to the furthest rear point of the rump measuring along the side of the horse.
b. Wither to Tail - measuring straight from top of wither to top of tail.
Refer to the Universal Size Chart below to determine the right size rug/blanket based on your horse's measurement.

How to Measure Bits
Suggest using a piece of string to measure from one corner of the
horse’s mouth to the other.
The mouthpiece should ideally be 19mm (3/4”) larger than this
measurement.
If a couple of wrinkles can be seen either side of the horse’s mouth,
this is a good guide that the bit is sitting in the correct place.
