Specialty Rugs & Show Sets

Discover rugs designed for unique needs, from cooling to show day protection, all with Caribu quality.

Specialty rugs and show sets for performance, presentation and comfort

Whether you're prepping for competition or managing post-workout recovery, Caribu’s specialty rugs and show sets are made to keep your horse comfortable, clean and looking sharp. Designed for both function and flair, this collection includes cooler rugs, rug liners, and stylish show sets that perform in and out of the ring.


Crafted from technical materials like quick-drying polar fleece, these rugs are perfect for managing sweat and moisture after exercise, travel or a wash-down. Many options are moisture wicking to help your horse cool down gradually while preventing chills. For layering warmth or protecting coats under heavier rugs, our rug liners add flexibility to your horse’s rugging system. If you’re shopping for full coverage, also check out our stable rugs for indoor comfort or rainsheets for lightweight wet weather protection.

What is the best rug for drying a horse after exercise?

A cooler rug is designed to wick moisture away from your horse after exercise or a wash, helping them dry off safely without getting chilled.

Do I need a rug liner for travelling or shows?

It's not always required, but it’s a smart addition if you're heading to a show or travelling long distances. It adds an extra layer of comfort during travel and keep your horse warm, clean and comfortable under a show rug,

Are show sets just for competitions?

Not at all. Show sets are great for travel, presentation days or anytime you want your horse to look neat and coordinated.

What are the benefits of using polar fleece in horse rugs?

Quick-drying polar fleece is soft, lightweight and moisture wicking, making it ideal for managing sweat or light chill without overheating.

Can specialty rugs be used as standalone rugs?

Yes! Many cooler rugs and show rugs can be used on their own for drying, stabling or short-term wear in dry conditions.
