Fit is a little tight around neck
Per the sizing instructions, this should have fit, but the neck hole is a little on the tighter side. I had to stretch it and “break” some of the stitching to make it more comfortable for my horse.

Gets the job done
I bought this should guard about a month ago because I needed a quick fix for my horses’s blanket rub. I have an older gray quarter horse who can fit into blankets 72-74 depending on the brand. I went with a large for her. It fits nicely around her belly with an additional loop to keep the buckle fastened, but it’s quite tight around her neck. I know I broke a few seams to stretch it enough to make it comfortable for her. I would say size up from the guide provided.

Rubbed horse
I bought it to stop blanket rubs on my horse but the first time I used it he got two rub marks on his chest. Has not used it since then, do not know if it’s a product error or what. The guard stayed in place so it didn’t cause irritation cause it slipped or anything.

Fell apart within a week
I had been waiting for these to come back in stock as my horse had been getting shoulder rubs from his blankets. I put it on him and within a week, the elastic was separating from the stretchy materials and there were loose threads everywhere. Really disappointed in the durability. I ordered the correct size (XL for blanket 84) and my horse isn't destructive of his other blankets. Not sure why this fell apart so quickly but definitely didn't hold up.

Quality For the Price
I ordered the shoulder guard when my horse's blanket was rubbing his mane on his withers. It has done the trick!

Not for us
My paint horse is clipped for the first time this winter. Now his blankets are rubbing his shoulders. This shoulder guard is very tight in its neck opening. So immediately stitches popped and seams unraveled to allow it to stretch enough. The buckle closer for the belly strap ends up being where your girth goes and being a big hard plastic buckle, caused rubs. Velcro would be more comfortable and versatile in that area. After 2 weeks of use my horse is now way more rubbed and hairless across his entire chest then if I would not have used this.

It Works
I purchased this shoulder guard because my mares sheet was rubbing her shoulder on the hot walker. I think it will work fine. It warmed up so I haven't put it to the test yet.

Stretchy Shoulder Guard
I bought this a month ago because to Gypsy mare was getting a blanket rub on her wither. The Shoulder Guard works great, but the size is too small. The sizing chart said for a blanket size 74 - 76 buy a medium. She wears a 74 blanket so I bought the medium. However, the neck hole is too small. Due to it being too small the hem has ripped out half way around the neck hole. Next year I will invest in a large size.
