Save big on Adams exclusive colors in the Amigo Bravo 12 Medium Weight Wug.

Fantastic rug at a fantastic price! and the exclusive color is lovely and sizing is consistent with other Horseware/Amigo rugs. Customer service was excellent and shipping was super fast. Will definitely be ordering supplies through Adams from now on!
High quality blanket that fits my mare perfect, and keeps her warm and dry in this upstate NY weather. Fast shipping and great packaging. Very impressed with Adams horse supplies.
Lovely color and fit on my 5yo OTTB (78"). Great price point from Adams. Most of my blue amigo blankets, however, have faded to a dusky purple overtime, which I anticipate happening to this one as well. Happy with purchase for now.
This is a great blanket. I got two for my guys. Really nice weight. Stays put (despite them having rolled in puddles, mud, everything in an attempt to weigh them down!). Not as durable as a Rambo, but that's a given with the price. Fit is amazing - my guy had shoulder rubs from an older blanket, I switched him to this and they WENT AWAY. Definitely recommend, especially at the price you can get from Adams!
Follow these easy steps to safely clean, waterproof and store your blankets for next year.
Step 1: If your blanket is caked with mud or really dirty, gently hose blanket off before washing.
Step 2: If your blanket has a lot of horse hair stuck in lining, you may want to vacuum as much hair as possible out (this is why we prefer smooth nylon lined blankets!)
Step 3: Wash in a FRONT Loader washing machine (do NOT use an agitator style washing machine - the agitator damages the fabric and can permanently ruin the fiber fill insulation).
Use cold water
Use the bulky item cycle if your machine has it
Use the low spin speed cycle
Use a detergent specially made to maintain waterproofing - we use and recommend Rambo Blanket Wash
Step 4: Hang your blankets on a fence to dry (do NOT put in dryer as it will ruin waterproofing and can damage the fabric).
Do NOT Use Agitator Style Washer
Agitators can damage the outer shell of your blanket and compromise the fiber fill distribution. Blanket manufacturers will not honor warranty claims if blanket is washed in an agitator style machine.
Use a Front Loading Machine
If your front loading machine has a bulky cycle, use it. We recommend cold water and a low spin speed.
Hang Blankets on Fence to Dry
Do NOT put your turnout blankets in a dryer. The heat ruins the waterproofing and can damage the outer shell.
Check for waterproofness and re-waterproof if necessary
Step 5. Once your blankets are clean and dry, now is a good time to see if they are still waterproof. Take a cup of water, and pour over blanket. Water should bead up and roll off, if not, it is time to re-waterproof.Â

We treated this old turnout with Dry Guys Waterproofing.
Step 6 (Optional): Re-waterproof your turnouts. Trust us, do it now, so when it is 35 degrees and pouring next Fall and you need your blanket waterproof, you will be glad you didn't procrastinate! We like Dry Guys Waterproofing Spray (also comes in a concentrate). Spray your blanket evenly with the Dry Guys. Let it dry and do a second coat. One regular bottle does 2 blankets well.Â
Step 7 (Optional): If your blanket has any nicks or tears, you can repair them easily using Rambo Stormsure and Rambo Rug Repair Kit. You can also replace leg straps and tail cords if they are worn.
Step 8. Store safely for next year. If you have the original blanket bag, you can use it or we also like using the Space Bags. If using a Space Bag, you may want to put the content details on an paper insert (easier to read then writing on bag). Be sure to store in a rodent free area - it would be a big bummer to find a hole chewed in your carefully cleaned and stored blanket!
Trust us, next winter pulling your fresh, clean, waterproof blanket out of its storage bag will be ALMOST as rewarding as buying a new one!
