How to choose a Tattini blanket

Horses are animals naturally equipped to face the winter, but only if they live in nature, in freedom and adequately fed. Horses that live in stables and are ridden regularly, however, need some extra attention.

In fact, to avoid excessive sweating and make it easier for the horse to recover after work, it is good practice to shear the hair, which becomes long and thick in the cold months.

This is why the use of one or more blankets becomes essential. Sometimes, even horses that are not sheared and live in particularly harsh climates need extra protection.

There are different types of blankets: cotton, wool or fleece, quilted and waterproof for paddocks.

When the first cold weather arrives it is advisable to dress the horse with a cotton blanket. In many stables this type of blanket is used all year round.

To ‘walk’ the horse during the first minutes in the saddle and at the end of the work, fleece is useful, as it is soft and warm.

In the stable and during the coldest hours we can use padded and quilted blankets. The weight of the padding also indicates the level of protection: Tattini and Daslö blankets range from 150 to 400 grams!

The special paddock blanket is suitable for horses that spend a lot of time out of the box, it is waterproof and also allows the horse to roll in the mud.

Some blankets also come with a removable accessory that also keeps your neck warm.

The important details

Tattini blankets are designed down to the smallest detail. They are sturdy; wide side darts allow shoulder movement without hindering it; straps with elastic insert for optimal comfort; wrap-around collar or synthetic lambskin saver; front hook-and-loop closure and double strap with snap hooks; tail cover.

Measures

Tattini blankets are available for ponies and horses of all sizes. To choose the right size blanket, we recommend measuring the withers-tail and chest-tail length before going to the saddlery.
