"Hi, on behalf of Expert Village.com I'm Shelly here at AA Calister in Salt Lake City, Utah and we are talking about how to choose a winter horse blanket. Now we're going to talk about mid weight blankets. This is a turn out blanket and its mid weight because of, get this on our little guy here, there we go. Now whats going to make a mid weight blanket is the denier, the outer shell. A denier of 420 to about 1200 denier is going to be a mid weight blanket. A mid weight blanket is good for moderate climates. Climates that get about 30 degrees is the coldest they get and also they have about 8 - 12 ounces of fill in a mid weight blanket. So mid weight blankets are a little heavier denier, a little more insulation, and they are for a moderate climate that could get to freezing or warmer. So thats going to be a mid weight blanket. So you are going to want to take those into consideration. Consider your climate when considering a mid weight blanket."
