Lami-Cell Pro-Fit Turnout Blanket 150g
The Lami-Cell Pro-Fit turnout is a revolutionary design for the blanket industry. Along with its waterproof and breathable 1200 Denier rip-stop outer, the stretch insert at the withers is a patent-pending design that is engineered to stretch when the horse bends his neck to relieve pressure at the withers, allow more freedom of movement, prohibit hair loss, and conform to the horse’s natural neck line, altogether providing more comfort for your horse. The improved extra high shoulder gussets are wider and angled closer to the natural structure of the horse’s shoulder, for further freedom of movement while running and to prevent rubbing on the pressure points of the shoulder blades to avoid hair loss and discomfort. While the surcingles are reinforced with elastic to provide extra give when needed, the unique closure is a sliding secure lock system that doesn’t require a rubber washer. It makes the surcingles easier to secure and lock in place so you don’t have to worry about them coming loose during turnout, or being fastened incorrectly.

Measuring Instructions:
Stand your horse as square as possible, and measure from the center of chest around side of the body to the point of the horse's rump just before the tail. If your horse ends up measuring between sizes, always round up to the next size to ensure full coverage.
Washing Instructions:
To keep your blanket as comfortable as possible for your horse and to maximize the blanket's life, it is recommended that you clean your blanket annually. First, remove excess dirt from the outside of the blanket with a brush and hose. The blanket can then be washed either by hand, or on a delicate cycle with cool water in a commercial washer. Use only very mild soap. When the blanket has been washed, allow to drip dry and ensure that the blanket is thoroughly dry before storage. Do not put your horse's blanket in the dryer or wash with hot water. Do not store your horse's blanket if damp or wet. This will damage the waterproof coating and void any warranties.
Horses Turned Outside Without Shelter:
Lami-Cell Turnout Sheet and Blanket materials are waterproof and designed to keep your horse dry. However, if your horse is turned out in a field without a run in shed or shelter during prolonged rain or heavy downpours, your horse may still get wet, especially in the neck and tail areas.
When using a blanket or sheet, it is critical to monitor the fluctuating climate and temperatures, even with a blanket that is waterproof and breathable. The wicking properties of a breathable blanket are designed to wick away normal body heat. When a blanket is too heavy, the heat and moisture cannot be wicked away fast enough, causing your horse to sweat. The temperature and the length of your horse’s coat will determine what weight of blanket you should use. For this reason, most people who choose to blanket horses have several articles of horse clothing that offer varying levels of warmth.
