Kensington Protective Products, Inc., a leading manufacturer of premium quality horse protective wear and accessories is pleased to announce a new limited edition plaid for 2013: Black Ice. This color was derived from their contest winner, Grace, a 15-year old girl with a passion for design and love of horses. Kensington’s 2013 limited edition is a combination of teal, black, gray and white woven into a pattern that they feel will become one of Kensington’s most popular plaid patterns. Textilene®, an innovative woven PVC coated polyester mesh that is world renowned for its durability, was used to create the Black Ice plaid and is the color-coordinating element in the Black Ice Collection, which includes a protective sheet, an assortment of fly masks and boots for your complete summer protection, as well as a wide variety of additional coordinating products. Textilene® is resistant to mildew and fading, ensuring that the Black Ice collection will maintain its vibrant colors for years to come. Anthony Gatto, CEO and President of Kensington says the Black Ice Plaid was produced in limited yardage, and he encourages those that want the entire color-coordinated collection to purchase early before the color is discontinued!
