Sizing

Our customized-fit system ensures your pony gets the fit you are looking for. No one size fits all like the other brands! But your smaller equine is an uncommon size? We can modify our patterns to your measurements. Questions about what size your pony needs? Call us or use this Measuring Guide.

Custom embroidery

You can personalize your fleece-lined pony sleazy with your monogram or name, your pony’s name, or advertise your farm or ranch. We’ll embroider up to 12 characters per line (including spaces). We recommend selecting a contrasting thread color that will show up.

Easy on/Easy off

In general, most ponies tolerate things around their heads. Therefore, putting on a pony slicker is a snap. Open the noseband Velcro. Bunch up the slinky and slip it over your pony’s head. Adjust the holes until your pony’s eyes and ears are in the center. Slide the remaining slinky over the neck and shoulders. Close the girth attachment. Close the noseband Velcro. Finally, your pony slinky should fit smooth, like swimwear, but not tight.

Care

Because the pony fleece-lined slinky contains 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 hoodie 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.
