A correct size is essential for both comfort and performance in equestrian sports. At Maddelin Equestrian, we are happy to help you choose the right size so that your equipment fits perfectly—whether it's riding apparel, helmets, boots, or accessories.
A well-fitting outfit not only ensures greater comfort but also better performance in the saddle. Clothing that is too tight or too loose can restrict your freedom of movement and affect your aids. Therefore, we recommend always measuring accurately and using our size charts as a guide.
Our size charts are organized by product category and brand, allowing you to choose as precisely as possible. Because fits can vary by brand, you will find specific information with each product to guide you.
How to measure correctly?
For the best results, always measure with a flexible tape measure, close to the body but without tightening.
-
Chest circumference: measure around the widest part of the chest
-
Waist: measure around the narrowest part of your waist
-
Hips: measure around the widest part of the hips
-
Inseam length: measure from groin to ankle
-
Head circumference (helmets): measure just above the eyebrows and ears
-
Calf circumference & height (boots/chaps): measure the widest part of the calf and the height from heel to hollow of the knee
If you are in doubt between two sizes? We usually advise choosing the larger size for extra comfort, unless otherwise stated with the product.
At Maddelin, we believe that the right fit makes all the difference between just riding and truly riding well. Use our size charts as a guide and confidently choose the size that suits you and your horse.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
LeMieux Arika Featherweight Outdoor Blanket – Innovation, protection & freedom of movement
Winner of the BETA Innovation Gold Award 2021 – and rightly so!
The LeMieux Arika Featherweight Outdoor Rug is the result of smart technology, thoughtful design, and years of expertise in horse welfare. This revolutionary outdoor rug is lightweight yet offers excellent protection – ideal for horses that spend a lot of time outdoors, even in changeable weather.
Why this blanket is truly innovative:
-
Two-piece patented design: The unique Arika Storm-Tek system consists of two independent panels. The lower panel provides extra freedom of movement and relieves tension on the shoulders and chest, while the central panel keeps the blanket stable and provides additional protection.

No center back seam: Made from strong Oxford fabric in a wide cut – no seam along the back is needed, so less risk of leakage and chafing.
-
Unique angled closure system: Distributes pressure perfectly across the chest and shoulders – prevents chafing and ensures a comfortable, anatomical fit.
-
Lightweight yet durable: The 900D waterproof outer fabric is ultra-strong, breathable, and durable – protecting against rain and wind without adding weight.

-
Horses that move a lot in the pasture
