- Stick measure — from withers to base of tail along the back
- Upper width — chest opening at the front of the blanket
- Bottom width — drop length from spine to lower edge

If between sizes, size up — a blanket that's too tight rubs at the chest and shoulders. The blanket should sit clear of the wither, cover the full back to the base of the tail, and the front buckles should fasten without straining.
The Francis is HV Polo's seasonal stable rug — built for cooler stable nights, with wool material and small diamond quilting across the top half and a fleece bottom half that's easy to wipe down between uses.
Around the neck there's a thick faux fur collar, and the binding and closure straps are finished in shiny satin polyester. A double T-lock front closure pairs with X-surcingles at the belly to keep the rug sat in place, and a tailcord stops it riding forward.
A small metal HV Polo plate at the front closure and a rubber badge above the walking slit add the brand's signature detailing.
Composition: 30% wool 70% polyester
Closure: Hook and velcro
