Bucas Eczema Blanket Sweet-itch Zebra

Does its job, but horses with heavy eczema need more coverage. It is a good blanket for my mare because she only has a light form of eczema.

• Good fit
• Solid fabric

• Cheap quality leg straps, chest piece not adjustable

Super nice blanket, good fit, stays nice on the horse. Good quality and strong fabric.

• Solid fabric
• Covers a lot of the horse
• Good fit
• Large separate belly flap
• Blanket reaches over the neck

• The belly flap would have liked me even wider

Despite the known Bucas size for my Shetty found no suitable. Belly bib too short, neck too long for that. Completely different cut than Freedom, too bad

• Solid tissue

Very strong blanket, stays perfectly in place 24/7. Even dr belly remains whole, while my horse always has wounds. Will definitely buy the bucas again

Because I had been using the RSIH for years and still wanted to try something different, here is a comparison with the Bucas Sweet itch: This blanket is very suitable for hot weather, and is also slightly thinner than the RSIH (rambo Sweet itch hoody) . Only above 30 degrees did my horse sweat in it. The blanket is fairly small, a size 183 for an E-pony turned out to be fairly short. The neck portion and the tail flap should be longer. The elastic band as "browband" seems handy but does not get stuck due to the short neck of the blanket. The webbing system of the belly flap is super handy and quick to attach, but the belly flap itself would have liked a bit longer / less tight elastic. When I just had the blanket new, I wondered if such a tight belly flap was comfortable. The metal clips also provide sanding spots, but after a month there was nothing left to see. I have not noticed much of the watertight treatment so if you are looking for something against rain you better buy the special edition. The chest closure is more pleasant than that of the RSIH, stays nicer straight, and pulls back less tightly so that the chest is pinched. The blanket is much lighter than the RSIH and easier to put on. After two months small holes at the attachment of the tail flap, but no broken fasteners as was often the case with the RSIH also a! Wash the fabric much stronger. There must absolutely be a withers protector. After two months my horse had a wound on the withers, perhaps because the blanket is on the small side? I should have liked more with the withers and shoulders. Never had this problem with the RSIH. To sum up: the fit of the RSIH is better, but the fabric and attachment of the Bucas Sweet itch is better. Order from the Bucas a size larger with a breast protector. The summer eczema is under control with both blankets.

• Very tight
• No sweat
• Stops flying

• The belly flap would have liked me even wider
• The neck stays bad all over the neck

Super strong blanket very satisfied with the fit ..
