Why Is Natural Breathability in Canvas Critical for Australian Climate Transitions?

Australian weather can shift rapidly from cold morning rain to warm afternoon sunshine. Fully synthetic unlined turnouts can quickly turn into hot, humid microclimates under direct sunlight, causing horses to sweat heavily under the rug. Natural canvas provides superior thermal regulation, insulating against cold morning winds while remaining porous enough to dissipate rising body heat as ambient temperatures rise, preventing heat scald and keeping the skin healthy.
