The "Dublin" rain rug with 50 g filling is a versatile solution for horses that require reliable protection in rain, wind, and changeable temperatures. It is suitable for both clipped and unclipped horses, as moisture and wind can quickly lead to chilling regardless of coat condition. Especially for sensitive, older, or health-compromised horses, the light thermal insulation helps maintain a stable body temperature without causing overheating. Thanks to its high breathability and the waterproof (5,000 mm), durable 600D ripstop outer fabric, this rug is ideal as a transitional rug and provides dependable protection even in heavy rain.
 

• Hook&Hold – combine flexibly, securely fasten: Our smart solution helps you securely and quickly connect SUNRIDE overblankets and underblankets. With a loop and Velcro closure at the front and a practical clip system at the back, everything stays in place – even during movement. Especially in rapidly changing weather, this system is a flexible companion.

• 600D ripstop – robust durability, maximum breathability: The perfect combination of toughness and breathability. Thanks to the tear-resistant Ripstop structure, the blanket withstands intensive use and reliably protects against wind and weather. At the same time, the high breathability ensures that excess heat can escape, making it ideal for days with variable weather. Even during brief sunshine, your horse stays comfortably protected without overheating.

• 50g filling – comfortable warmth for cooler seasons: Balanced thermal insulation, ideal for a wide range of weather conditions. It provides the necessary protection on cooler days without overheating your horse, making it perfect for transitional weather and cold winter days.

• 5,000 mm water column – stay dry even in heavy rain: This high level of waterproofing ensures no water penetrates, even during persistent heavy rain – your horse stays reliably dry. Compared to standard blankets, the ISO-certified 5,000 mm water column offers significantly better rain resistance, ideal for prolonged bad weather or damp conditions.

• Breathable – moisture escapes for a comfortable feel: With an ISO-certified breathability of 3,000 g/m², this blanket ensures optimal moisture management. This high breathability effectively releases sweat and excess heat to the outside while keeping your horse dry and comfortably tempered. Perfect for active horses or changing weather conditions.

• With neck part attachment – flexible expansion for added protection: The neck part perfectly complements the SUNRIDE blankets, protecting your horse's sensitive neck area from rain, wind, and cold. It can be attached to the blanket in seconds with a simple clip system. Especially in wet and cold weather, a neck cover helps prevent your horse from getting chilled, reducing the risk of colds or muscle stiffness.

• Belly straps and detachable leg straps – secure fit and easy handling: The straps are individually adjustable and easy to open and close, making handling especially convenient. The leg straps are also detachable, allowing you to adapt the blanket flexibly – ideal for your horse’s specific needs.

• Reflective elements – increased visibility for greater safety: The blanket’s logo and trim are made of reflective material, enhancing your horse's visibility and safety. This ensures your horse is easily seen from any angle at dusk or in darkness.

• Optional chest extension – adjusts to every horse: Optimal fit even for broader horses or those between sizes. This clever feature enables individual adjustments, ensuring the blanket fits comfortably while allowing maximum freedom of movement. Whether your horse has a strong neck or unique proportions, the chest extension makes the blanket versatile and adaptable to nearly any body type. This way, your horse stays well-protected and comfortable at all times.

Did you know, that… The combination of a high water column and good breathability reduces the risk of colds and muscle stiffness, as your horse neither cools down nor overheats. With breathability of 3,000 g/m², our rain sheet efficiently wicks away excess moisture and sweat while preventing water from seeping in. This helps avoid overheating and keeps your horse comfortable.

FAQ for the "Dublin" rain sheet:

Innovation

• What sets "Hook&Hold" apart from other systems?
  At SUNRIDE, you don’t need to spend time figuring out which blankets are compatible with our system, because all our top blankets – whether winter, rain, or stable blankets – come equipped with "Hook&Hold." This means you can easily attach one or even two underrugs at any time without any hassle. You can find all the details above under the "Hook&Hold" section.

• Is the "Hook&Hold" system compatible with blankets from other manufacturers?
  Our innovative combination technology has been specifically designed for our own top and underrugs and is therefore not compatible with blankets from other manufacturers. This is the only way we can ensure that all components fit together perfectly and function reliably – for maximum comfort and safety for your horse.

Material

• What does 600D ripstop material mean?
  600D ripstop material is an exceptionally robust and durable fabric commonly used for outdoor products such as horse blankets, bags, or tents. The term "600D" refers to the thread thickness of the material, with 600 denier indicating high durability. "Ripstop" describes a special weaving technique where reinforced threads are integrated into a grid pattern. This pattern prevents small tears from spreading further, making the material particularly tear-resistant. These properties make 600D ripstop material ideal for demanding applications and use in horse accessories.

• Is a water column of 5,000 mm sufficient for continuous rain?
  Yes, a water column of 5,000 mm is absolutely sufficient for prolonged rain. A water column indicates how much water pressure per square meter the fabric can withstand before it starts to leak. With 5,000 mm, the blanket reliably protects against heavy and persistent rain. In practice, this means that the blanket remains highly water-repellent even during intense rainfall, keeping your horse dry.

• What does ISO certified mean?
  An ISO certification for a horse blanket means that the product meets certain international standards set by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). This certification ensures that the horse blankets have been tested in various areas such as quality, safety, and environmental impact. For rain sheets, this could mean that the material is waterproof and breathable, the blanket has passed specific durability tests, and the production methods are environmentally friendly. An ISO certification provides customers with the assurance that the rain blanket is not only functional but also sustainable and of high quality.

• How easy is the material to care for?
  Our blankets are very easy to care for and can be machine washed at 30 degrees. This makes cleaning simple and quick. However, we would like to point out that repeated washing may gradually weaken the blanket's waterproof coating. To maintain the blanket’s water resistance and protection, we recommend regularly retreating it or using special waterproofing products.

• How is breathability ensured?
  The breathability of our blankets is ensured by the Ripstop fabric used, which has a permeability of 3,000 g/m². This allows moisture and heat to escape from the horse, while simultaneously keeping external moisture out. Therefore, it is important that rain sheets do not have a water column higher than 5,000 mm. A higher water column would impair breathability, causing the horse to sweat quickly under the blanket.

• Can moisture or heat accumulate under the blanket?
  Thanks to the high breathability of our blankets and the Ripstop fabric technology used, moisture and heat cannot build up under the blanket. The blanket allows for effective ventilation, so excess heat and moisture are released, while rain and moisture stay outside. This keeps your horse dry and comfortable without causing any uncomfortable heat buildup under the blanket.

• What does 3000 g/m² breathability mean?
  This specification describes how effectively moisture (e.g., sweat) is transported through the material to the outside, ensuring a comfortable climate for the horse. In this case, 3000 grams of water vapor can pass through one square meter of the material within a day. This keeps the horse dry and prevents overheating or moisture buildup.

• Can I also use the rain sheet in the summer?
  Yes, this rain blanket can also be used in summer thanks to its breathability. The breathable material ensures a comfortable climate under the blanket by transporting moisture from the inside to the outside. Our 50g blanket is particularly suitable for cooler or rainy summer days when the horse needs extra protection.

Function

• Is the neck piece included, or does it need to be purchased separately?
  The neck cover is not included and must be purchased separately. This gives you the flexibility to decide if and when you need it, allowing you to customize and expand your blanket as needed.

• Is the neck piece also waterproof and breathable?
  Yes, the neck part is also waterproof and breathable. It is made from the same material as the blanket and has the same water column rating, ensuring your horse stays optimally protected. You can find all further details on our website directly under the product.

• How visible are the reflective elements in low light or from a distance?
  At dusk and in complete darkness, the reflective elements of the blankets are extremely visible – even from a great distance. They work on the same principle as safety vests in cars, providing maximum visibility and safety for your horse. A phone flash or flashlight is enough to make the reflective elements clearly stand out.
