Arika Sun Stopper Rug is the perfect transitional rug for changing seasons where weather and temperature vary. The rug is designed to provide effective protection against sun, insects, and cooler temperatures – without compromising the horse's freedom of movement or comfort.
The upper side is made of lightweight yet durable 450D ripstop polyester with integrated UPF50+ sun protection that blocks up to 98 percent of the sun's harmful rays. The material also provides a light warming layer over important muscle groups, making the rug ideal for cooler mornings and evenings.
The lower part consists of a breathable micro-mesh material that effectively protects against flies and insects while maintaining optimal airflow. The combination of materials keeps the horse cool, dry, and comfortable even in changing weather conditions.
Like the other rugs in the Arika collection, this model is equipped with LeMieux's patented two-part front skirt and a 45° angled T-bar front closure. The construction provides maximum shoulder freedom and allows the horse to move freely during both play and grazing.
The removable neck piece is included and provides extra protection and flexibility as needs change. Arika Sun Stopper Rug is a well-designed and versatile rug for horse owners seeking a functional transitional rug with a focus on comfort, protection, and fit.
