The Allen Illustrated Guide to Horse Clothing is the third in the series which began with the widely acclaimed Allen Illustrated Guide to Bits and Bitting and continued with The Allen Illustrated Guide to Training Aids. Hilary Vernon now examines the varied and confusing proliferation of horse clothing on offer to the horse owner. Advice is given on the use, suitability and correct fitting of each item and the author weighs up the pros and cons of different materials and explains what can be expected of modern fibres. Clear diagrams show exactly how to size rugs and measure the horse for a perfect fit. The book covers outdoor and indoor rugs, vests, hoods and bibs, as well as coolers and sweat rugs, travel wear, numnahs, fly veils and masks, boots and bandages, and safety and wet weather clothing. Fully illustrated with a wealth of colour photographs and colour illustrations by talented equestrian artist, Maggie Raynor, this is an invaluable guide for any horse owner, student, or anyone involved in the retail saddlery trade
