Hybrid Next Gen Cross-Over Attached Hood Horse Rug
More here: January 2025
The Next Gen Delzani Hybrid attached hood cross-over combo is one of our most adaptable, year-round paddock horse rugs.
This season's hoods now feature a safer full mesh head panel - helping to reduce visibility issues if your horse manages to dislodge his hood.
These hybrid rugs feature our strong custom-made dual-weave hexagon ripstop fabric. Constructed from a cotton/polyester blend, this horse rug offers the perfect balance between breathability and strength. In the neckline and skirts, we use our 280GSM fly mesh, which allows improved airflow, while keeping biting insects and the sun at bay.
The horse rug hoods are securely attached to the rugs and offer unprecedented protection from biting insects and coat fading from our harsh sun.
Delzani Hooded Cross-Over Rugs Feature:
• Ripstop: 300GSM breathable dual weave ripstop
• AirMesh: 280GSM panels in the skirt, neckline and head areas
• Contoured center back line w/rump darts, for custom fit
• Generous side drops
• Adjustable/removable webbed leg straps
• Fleece wither padding
• Internal lining in shoulders & mane to reduce rubbing
• Night reflectors attached to the rug for night safety
• Large tent tail flap (mare friendly)

Delzani Hybrid Cross-Over Hoods Feature:
• An adjustable, fast-release poll strap for added security
• Mane anti-rub lining
• Dual weave hexagon ripstop with mesh head and neck inserts
• 3 x quality neck buckles
• Enclosed ears ^
^ Note, enclosed ears can be permanently removed without damaging the integrity of the ear holes.
Attached Hood Size Guide:
We ensure our attached hoods have a generous neck length to allow trouble-free grazing.
We have a detailed hood size guide here, that will provide you with additional measurements, to compare Delzani hoods to your current hood.
Rug Size | Hood Size |
4'6 to 4'9 | XS-Pony |
5'0 to 5'3 | Pony |
5'6 to 6'3** | Cob** |
6'0** to 6'9 | Full** |
7'0 | XL-Full |
Refer to our detailed hood size guide here
** 6'0 and 6’3 rugs are available with either a Cob or Full-size hood attached. Tip: the majority of Horses in a 6’0 Rug will take a COB-size hood and Horses in a 6’3 Rug will need a full-size hood. Please note, the suggested hood size to rug size above is a guide only. Horses come in all shapes and sizes and there can be variance from one horse to another, or differences in sizing between different manufacturers, so please reach out to us if you need assistance and refer to our detailed horse hood size guide here.

Perfect fit and Quality
By: Jody on 24 October 2023While my mare has no issues with being hooded, I wasn't sure how sure she'd adapt to the ear covers, but she's adapted like she's worn them her whole life. With the gale force winds here in Victoria over the past week, my mare would normally be running around her yard in a mad panic, but with the ear covers, she's been calm and happy. Bronte is a big 16.1 Standy mare with a big head and big butt, and the 6'3 fits her like a glove. I'm actually back to buy a couple more of these rugs, because I now love the hood/rug combo as you don't have to worry about the hood detaching from the rug and falling over their head.
