What riders say about Bucas
Riders tell us Bucas is easy on the horse, from soft padding at the crown of a fly mask to a rug that leaves his coat alone.
Gorgeous rug, super fast shipping overseas! Only rug that doesn't pull my guys hair out.
Love the softness and padding it has at the crown and bridge of the nose. Would recommend if you're a Zebra print lover like me!
I like the Bucas deluxe BuzzOff mask with ears. It's well ventilated silver material, soft but sturdy.
I love my Bucas travel boots, they have lasted really well, are very protective

Turnouts
Bucas Irish and Power turnouts that outlast a rough pasture
Bucas Irish and Power turnouts are made for horses that are hard on their blankets. The Irish Turnout 150g pairs a 1200D ripstop polyester shell with a silky nylon lining, shoulder darts and a padded T-loc front, and Bucas lists a temperature range of 14°F to 57°F. The Power Light Classic Turnout uses 1000D ballistic nylon with a heat-reflective aluminum coating and a magnetic click lock, listed for 5°F to 68°F. Both have covered attachment points for a Combi Neck, sold separately.
Riders tell us these blankets survive horses that shred other rugs, and several compare Bucas favorably with Rambo for durability. For milder, wetter weather, the Irish Turnout Sheet 0g has no insulation, and the Sun Shower Sheet adds a waterproof 840D polyester shell listed for 41°F to 75°F. Look elsewhere if your horse only needs a layer for a stall: a ripstop, waterproof turnout is more shell than a stabled horse needs. For a plain no-fill pasture layer, the Freedom Light Turnout uses 600D ripstop.
What Riders Say
i have a horse who has destroyed Rambos. After nine years with his Bucas the only thing he has damaged on it was the belly strap
the only rugs my horses literally don't rip to shreds are Bucas and weatherbeeta
Love these- good as rambo for durability with 2 chomper geldings.
My sheet is 8 years old, and wears like new, with just a small hole in the tail flap.

Winter weights
Bucas 300g and 400g turnouts for hard winter nights
The Smartex Extra Turnout 300G is Bucas' original turnout in its warmest version, with 1000D ballistic nylon, 300 grams of thermo-bonded fill, a stay-dry lining and a double-padded overlap chest. Bucas lists it as warm down to -13°F. The Atlantic Turnout 400G goes to 400 grams of fill and adds a silky Dermo-Care lining that wicks moisture and keeps the coat smooth, plus neck darts and click-and-go magnetic snap locks. Browse every Bucas 300g turnout to compare the linings and shells side by side.
For a ripstop shell in the same weight, the Irish Extra Classic Turnout has 1200D ripstop and 300 grams of fill, and the Freedom Extra Turnout has 600D ripstop with 300 grams of fiberfill. Look elsewhere if you mostly need rain cover: the Smartex Rain Turnout is a waterproof sheet designed for 23°F to 64°F. Look elsewhere too if your coldest nights stay above 50°F: the 150g Irish Turnout is the better match.
What Riders Say
I have an older mare who has lived in the south her whole life. The Bucas Power Turnout is amazing! She had it on anywhere from our Wisconsin 30- wind chills up to 50 degrees and was happy.
I have two that have been in use for probably 10 years now that are only just starting to lose their waterproofed-ness.
Sizing
How to size Bucas blankets: fit, shoulders and combi necks
Bucas blankets are sized in inches, so measure your horse from the center of his chest to the point of his tail and match that number to the size on the product. Bucas builds shoulder darts into its Irish, Power, Smartex and Atlantic turnouts to give the point of the shoulder room to move. Bucas Combi Necks are listed as M 69/72, L 75/78 and XL 81/84, and the Power Combi Neck and Smartex Combi Neck clip onto the covered attachment points of their matching turnouts.
Riders tell us Bucas fits a wide range of builds, from a 16hh Thoroughbred mare to narrow horses and big-barreled ones, with no shoulder rubs. The neck cover is sold separately from the turnout, so pick one from the same line, such as the Atlantic Combi Neck 300G for an Atlantic turnout. To keep the shell performing, wash with Blanket Wash and restore the finish with Blanket Conditioner.
What Riders Say
I have a 16hh TB mare. I love the Bucas blankets on her. In fact most of her blankets are Bucas. They fit better than most brands. I especially like the gathering in the neck area. I find it helps from getting rubs.
I've never had the Bucas not fit any horse - small narrow things and big barreled horses all fit good in the shoulders with no rubs.

Coolers
Bucas Therapy and Power coolers for a sweaty horse
The Classic Power Cooler is a single layer of antibacterial, moisture-wicking Stay-Dry fleece with a padded front, T-locks, internal surcingles and shoulder darts. Bucas describes it as a sweat blanket, travel blanket or light stable blanket. The Shamrock Power Cooler doubles the fleece to two layers and adds a satin finish outer for cooling down in the coldest weather. Leg strap attachment points are built in, but the straps are not included.
Bucas makes its Therapy fabric from extremely fine stainless steel mesh. The Therapy Cooler has hidden surcingles, and Bucas says the Therapy Mesh Cooler keeps its Therapy properties through washing, so it launders like a normal cooler. Look elsewhere if you need a waterproof layer: a cooler is for wicking and drying, so switch to a turnout once he is dry and heading outside.

Fly sheets
Bucas Buzz-Off fly sheets that stop bugs and sweet itch
The Classic Buzz Off Fly Sheet is a 1000D lightweight polyester mesh with a magnetic lock, padded T-lock closure, neck darts, a detachable belly band and 80% UV protection. The Buzz Off Full Neck Fly Sheet adds neck coverage. The Buzz Off X Fly Sheet goes further, with an extra long neck that covers the poll, extra deep sides, an adjustable belly flap and three external surcingles.
Sweet itch is an allergic reaction to the bite of Culicoides midges, and Bucas' Sweet Itch sheets use a fabric developed to stop even the smallest midges. The Sweet Itch X Light Sheet puts that fabric over the upper areas most prone to sweet itch and open mesh below for airflow. The Buzz Off Detachable Neck lets you take the neck on or off. Look elsewhere if the forecast is wet: a mesh sheet is not waterproof, while the Sun Shower Sheet is.

Questions riders ask
Bucas blanket FAQ
How do I size a Bucas blanket?
Bucas blankets are sized in inches. Measure from the center of your horse's chest to the point of his tail and match that number to the size on the product. Bucas lists its Combi Necks as M 69/72, L 75/78 and XL 81/84. Open the Bucas blanket size filters on this page to browse by your horse's number.
What is the difference between Bucas Irish, Power and Smartex turnouts?
Bucas Irish turnouts use 1200D ripstop polyester shells with silky nylon linings, while Power and Smartex turnouts use 1000D ballistic nylon with stay-dry linings. Power Light adds an aluminum coating, and Smartex is Bucas' original line. All three have covered Combi Neck attachment points. Compare the Irish Turnout 150g and Smartex Extra Turnout 300G above to see the weight difference.
Which Bucas turnout weight suits a horse in a hard winter?
Bucas lists the Smartex Extra Turnout 300G as warm down to -13°F, and the Atlantic Turnout 400G carries 400 grams of fill for the most frigid conditions. The Irish Extra Classic Turnout and Freedom Extra Turnout also carry 300 grams. Match the weight to your coldest night, then browse the Bucas 300g turnouts.
Does a Bucas combi neck fit every Bucas turnout?
Not every pairing fits, so choose the neck from the same line as the turnout, such as the Power Combi Neck for a Power turnout. Bucas sells the neck cover separately and lists it in M, L and XL. Browse the Bucas Combi Neck blankets to match your turnout.
How do I wash a Bucas blanket?
Wash a Bucas blanket with Bucas Blanket Wash, which Bucas says retains waterproofing: use one 250ml bottle per turnout, or one for three coolers. Then spray Blanket Conditioner from about 6 inches onto the clean, dry outside of the turnout in a ventilated area and let it air dry fully. Add both to your order with your next blanket.
