The Garrison is perfect for all seasons. One of the newest additions to Zilco’s range, this combo is made with a 1200D polyester ripstop outer, which is breathable and waterproof. With longer wearing, more hygienic polyester lining (no fibre fill) and packed with features, it is a great option for between seasons or as a waterproof outer in cooler weather. Features: Shoulder gussets Stainless Steel fittings Removable leg straps Plain tail flap Fleece poll protector Double chest straps Cross-over surcingles Fully bound Rug Sizing: All Zilco rugs are based on tried and proven patterns, based on International sizing. When choosing a Zilco rug, you must consider the measurement of the horse in relation to the size of rug it needs. This is important to ensure an optimal fit, comfort, and for ease of movement. Before choosing a rug from the Zilco range, we recommend that the horse be measured from (A) the centre of the horse’s chest, over the high point of the shoulder and then to (B) the rear of the hind leg. Please see image of Rug Sizing. For the best performance, ensure the rug is the right size for your horse. Rugs should be positioned well forward and fastened firmly in order to prevent the rug from slipping out of place. Fitting Rugs: Zilco produces rug patterns that have a great fit on a huge variety of horse shapes and sizes, however even the best design available will not give the best results if it is fitted incorrectly. Place the rug forward and in front of the wither. The chest buckle should be fastened to the 1st or 2nd hole. Any further back than this, and the horse may need a larger size. Make sure the rug fits firmly around the neck and chest. This prevents the rug from “rolling” and slipping out of place. Leg straps should be looped around each other, and loose enough to prevent chafing - but not so loose that they hang down anywhere near the horse’s hock. To prevent mane rub, clean the satin lining on the neck rug (where applicable) once a week, and spray the mane with a conditioner or detangler. Leg strap clips should face inwards (towards the horse) to reduce the chance of catching on fences or other hazards.
