Blanket Fitting and Care
Horse Blankets Fitting and Caring Instructions
Fitting Instructions
Big D blankets are measured in inches. To ensure a perfect fit, stand your horse squarely, refer to the diagram and follow these instructions: Using a cloth or flexible measuring tape, start from the center of your horse's chest (A) and measure around the widest part of the shoulder, horizontally, across the barrel, over the widest part of the hindquarter to the edge of the tail (B). If the measurement is an odd number, use the next highest even number for the size.
All blankets and sheets are available in sizes 42-90 inches. Regular sizes are 68-82; other sizes are available by special order.
To find the correct hood size, use the following conversion:
Blanket Size |
Hood Size |
52-62 |
Weanling |
64-68 |
Small |
70-76 |
Medium |

Following these fitting instructions will ensure a perfect fit for your horse. If you need any help in finding the right size, or need answers to any questions about our products, please feel free to contact us.
