Keep a healthy hair coat

The Miniature Horse Fleece Body Suit is perfect to use under heavy winter blankets as an additional layer of warmth or as an underliner. See article about bacteria, fungi, and mold build-up under winter blankets. Because an underliner is much easier to wash than a bulky winter blanket, you can wash it at home.  You will be able to keep bacteria build-up to a minimum. Also, your mini will appreciate being less itchy. Your body sleazy needs washing at least twice a month to prevent bacteria build-up. Because a heavy winter blanket traps body heat, the fleece underliner can overstretch. Remove it. Let the Lycra® recover its memory by giving the sheet a good shake. Then, let it hang over a railing.

Easy on/Easy off

In general, most minis tolerate things put on them. Therefore, putting on a full-body sleezy is easy to do.   First of all, open the full-length zipper and Velcro® belly band.  Then, lay the middle of the body suit along your horse’s top line. Your horse’s eyes and ears should be in the middle of the holes. If not, the slinky could rub and cause discomfort.  Starting at the bottom of the chest, zip up the chest zipper.  Then, tighten the noseband Velcro®, otherwise, the head portion may shift. Lastly, straighten the back seam until it runs down the middle of the back and close the Velcro® belly band. Your full-body suit should fit smoothly, like swimwear, over your horse’s head, neck, and body but not too tight to create a rub.

Care for fleece full body

Because the mini fleece full body contains made with 54% polyester/ 34% nylon/ 12% spandex fabric, it is machine washable. Air dries fast. Also, follow our simple Care Instructions for best results. Wash your full body slinky at least once a month to prevent bacteria build-up.

What Makes Polartec Power Stretch Fleece so Special

Polartec Power Stretch fleece is ideal because it allows maximum freedom of movement with clean profiles. Adaptable to changing weather conditions, Polartec Power Stretch makes an excellent warm outer covering.

Polartec Power Stretch fleece features a body-hugging 4-way stretch that is very breathable. It will keep your horse dry when he sweats and provides warmth without weight. These are the most versatile outdoor fabrics available today. This fabric features a proprietary construction with two unique surfaces: the durable nylon outer layer is wind and abrasion-resistant; the soft inner layer pulls moisture away from the skin keeping your horse dry, warm and comfortable.

How does this work? Moisture and high humidity next to the skin cause discomfort.  Polartec fleece will keep the skin dry because the fabric is very breathable and does not restrict the movement of moisture vapor.  When the fabric’s inner surface touches the horse’s body it will draw off the sweat. The fabric wicks the sweat off the skin to the outside of the fabric, where it then spreads rapidly for evaporation. When the sweat reaches the outside of the fabric, it spreads out to many times its original surface area, enabling it to dry at least twice as fast as cotton.

Polartec Power Stretch fleece provides warmth without the weight and bulk of traditional insulating fabrics.  It is also wind-resistant to reduce the effect of wind chill.  When used under looser fitting winter hoods, it prevents rubbing or use it alone on cool spring and fall days.  Keep your horse warm and comfortable while protecting and polishing the hair coat.
