Size Guide — Bucas Rugs
Use this size guide to find the correct rug size for your horse. Bucas sizes rugs by length, in centimetres. Each size also has a UK feet-and-inches reference and a US inches reference.
How to measure your horse for a Bucas rug:
- Body length (A to B): measure from the centre of the chest, over the highest point of the shoulder, to the rear of the hind leg. Bucas uses this single measurement to set the rug size.
Bucas measures to the rear of the hind leg. Other UK rug brands often measure to the point of the buttock instead. These two methods can give different readings on the same horse, so always use a horse's Bucas measurement when choosing a Bucas rug. Do not reuse a size or measurement taken for another brand's rug.
If your horse falls between two sizes, or you are unsure of the measurement, contact Bucas directly. Bucas can post you a measuring tape: email admin@bucas.com to request one.
