A luxurious winter rug with 300g filling, a silver sun-reflective outer shell, and an antibacterial Stay-Dry lining. This rug is suitable for temperatures between -25 °C and +13 °C. A separate neck cover can easily be attached.

2. Bucas Smartex Medium and Extra

Additionally, the Smartex Extra Big Neck is available, specifically for broad-chested horses. A separate neck cover can also be attached to this rug.

3. Bucas Atlantic

The Atlantic is a relatively new model. This rug also features a ballistic nylon outer shell but is equipped with a Dermo-Care lining. This wicks away up to 80% of moisture (Stay-Dry 100%) and feels very soft against the skin – ideal for clipped horses.

Both versions can be extended with a separate neck cover.

A separate neck cover can also be attached to this rug.

    Frequently Asked Questions about Bucas Winter Rugs

  • What is the difference between a Bucas winter rug and a rain rug?

    A rain rug is unlined and only protects against rain and wind. A Bucas winter rug has filling (e.g., 150g, 200g, 300g, or 400g) and therefore provides extra warmth and insulation in winter.
  • What does Stay-Dry or Dermo-Care lining mean?

    • Stay-Dry: wicks away sweat 100% and keeps your horse dry, even if you put the rug on a sweaty horse.
    • Dermo-Care: wicks away approx. 80% moisture and is extra soft, ideal for horses with clipped coats or sensitive skin.
  • What is the difference between the standard fit and Big Neck?

    The Big Neck version is specially designed for broader horse breeds such as Friesians, stallions, or horses with a wide chest.
  • Can I attach a separate neck cover to my Bucas winter rug?

    Yes, most Bucas winter rugs can be extended with a separate neck cover for extra protection against cold and rain.
  • Are Bucas winter rugs waterproof?

    Yes, all Bucas winter rugs are waterproof and breathable. This keeps your horse dry and comfortable, even in unpredictable winter weather.
  • How do I choose the right size Bucas rug?

    The size is determined by the back length of your horse. Consult the Bucas size chart to choose the correct size.
