Pro Tip - Don’t Let the GSM Fool You!

At 280GSM, the Barcoo Air-Mesh might sound heavy on paper - but don’t let the weight mislead you. Its flat-weave, interlocked mesh design allows exceptional airflow while sitting softly against the coat. The structure keeps the fabric lifted just off the skin, helping heat escape naturally while still blocking biting insects and UV rays.

Many riders are surprised by how cool this rug feels even in full sun. The smooth, non-abrasive finish glides over short coats and prevents rubbing, making it ideal for horses that are rugged year-round but need breathable protection through the hotter months.

It’s a true workhorse of a rug - tough where it counts, yet comfortable enough for daily wear all season long.

The Signature Range - Premium Performance. Elevated Design.

Accessories Sold Separately

To allow the most ideal customisation possible for your horse rug, we sell the following accessories separately:

• Horse Tail Bags
• Bibs and Chest Protectors
• Replacement Parts

Note on Tail Bags: We sell our tail bags (with Velcro attachment) separately. Pre-sewing Velcro can cause fit issues, as the ideal placement varies from horse to horse. For the best result, fit the rug first, then attach the tail bag accordingly.

For this reason, tail bags are not pre-sewn or attached to our rugs.

Why the Barcoo Air-Mesh?

The Barcoo Air-Mesh captures everything Delzani stands for - purposeful design, premium materials, and Australian-tested performance. From the fabric weave to the hardware weight, every detail is considered for strength, comfort, and lasting style.

We believe the best rugs do more than protect - they perform. The Barcoo Air-Mesh is proof of that, combining airflow, durability, and elegance to deliver dependable protection season after season.
