{"product_id":"bucas-freedom-turnout-neck-100-outdoordeken","title":"Bucas Freedom Turnout + Neck 100 Turnout Rug with Neck 100g","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bucas Freedom Turnout + Neck 100 is a waterproof, breathable turnout rug with a neck and 100 g of fill. It protects not just the back and flanks but the neck as well from rain and wind. It is meant for horses living out in autumn, winter and early spring that can do with some insulation. The main benefit: rug and neck in one purchase, in 600 denier Ripstop with a Dermo-care lining and the slim Freedom cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout this turnout rug\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a standard turnout rug the neck stays uncovered. Often that is no problem, but in persistent rain and wind it is exactly where a horse gets wet. The Freedom Turnout + Neck 100 is supplied with a neck, so that area is covered too. Bucas describes the cut as Classic + Neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 100 g of thermobonded polyester sits between the light 50 g and the 300 g winter fill: enough to take the edge off cold and wind, without the warmth of a heavy winter rug. The outer is waterproof with a hydrostatic head above 5000 mm and breathable at more than 3000 g\/24h\/m², so moisture from the horse can escape. It is woven as 600 denier Ripstop, a weave that makes tears less likely and stops them spreading. The Dermo-care lining is silky, wicks moisture away and keeps the coat smooth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe like to be precise about the neck. Bucas supplies this rug with a neck, but does not specify whether it is detachable, nor whether it is filled. So we do not claim either. If using the neck separately matters to you, ask us before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front closure is an overlap T-bar with a hook-and-loop strap. Cross surcingles, a tail flap and a fillet string keep the rug in place, and there are attachment points for leg straps. Like every Freedom, this rug has no shoulder darts: it is the only slim fit Bucas makes. Narrow horses and thoroughbred types take their normal size. Cob types, or horses with a long distance from withers to the front of the chest, may find the fit tight. For them the Bucas Irish Turnout 50 + Neck, with shoulder darts, is the better choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA turnout rug is not tied to any discipline. This one serves any horse that lives out, whether you ride dressage, showjumping, eventing or for pleasure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug and neck supplied together, so no separate neck to find or order.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe neck is covered too against rain and wind.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100 g fill: a middle weight for cold, wet days without heavy insulation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaterproof and breathable, with a Ripstop outer that slows tears from spreading.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDermo-care lining that keeps the coat smooth and soft.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlim cut without shoulder darts for narrow horses and thoroughbred types.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePractical advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize it as you would any Bucas rug: measure from the centre of the chest, over the highest point of the shoulder, to the back of the hind leg, and take the nearest size. A rug that is too big slips sideways, presses on the withers and can rub. Once the rug is on, check that the neck moves freely when your horse grazes. For a broad chest there is the Bucas Chest Extender Standard (801), on request.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a neck, more of the body is covered. Bear that in mind on mild days. The Bucas Rug Selector label on the rug gives the recommended range; breed, clip, humidity and wind all play a part. Bucas lists no liner connection points for the Freedom, so this rug is not meant to be built up in layers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBucas itself states that water can get in along edges and seams, and that in heavy rain it can run down the neck and under the rug. The water-repellent finish wears with weather, use and washing: wash regularly with Bucas Rug Wash and restore the finish with Bucas Rug Conditioner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen to choose this turnout rug\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose the Freedom Turnout + Neck 100 for a narrow to average horse that spends a lot of time out in wet, windy weather, and when you want a neck without having to put a combination together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther Bucas rugs at Maddelin suit these cases better. A broad horse that needs a neck: the Irish Turnout 50 + Neck or, for winter, the Irish Turnout 300 + Neck Set, both with shoulder darts and 1200 denier Ripstop. No neck wanted: the Freedom Turnout 50 or Freedom Turnout 300, or, with the same 100 g, the Irish Turnout 100 and the Greenline Turnout 100, to which a neck can be added on request. The Bucas Oasis 100 + Neck Set is also supplied with a neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Bucas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Freedom Turnout + Neck 100 (675)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: turnout rug with neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOuter fabric: Ripstop, 600 denier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaterproof and breathable: hydrostatic head above 5000 mm, more than 3000 g\/24h\/m²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLining: Dermo-care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFill: 100 g thermobonded polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut: Classic + Neck, slim fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront closure: overlap T-bar with hook-and-loop strap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShoulder darts: no\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFastenings: cross surcingles, tail flap, fillet string and attachment points for leg straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck: supplied with neck; whether it is detachable or filled is not specified by Bucas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiners: Bucas lists no connection points for Liners, Quilts and Coolers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour at Maddelin: Navy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes at Maddelin: 145\/195\/6.6 and 155\/205\/6.9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: hand wash or machine wash at 30 degrees maximum, gentle cycle, with Bucas Rug Wash; do not tumble dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 2 years on manufacturing and material defects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of manufacture: China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the neck on the Freedom Turnout + Neck 100 detachable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat is not specified by Bucas.
