Will the Aussie All Rounder make my horse sweat in the summer?
The Aussie All Rounder is comprised of a highly breathable polyester fabric. However, the sweating a horse may experience is subject to the environment they live in. Like humans, wearing clothing of any sort during high summer temperatures may lead to some sweating as the body works to regulate itself. The sweating that may be experienced in these cases are not subject to the blankets’s composition but the external temperatures. Rugging during increased temperatures offers additional benefits such as UV protection against sun’s harmful rays, bleaching and damage to coats during turnout.
