Blanketing

Friesians are typically hardy horses that do not require blanketing to be kept in colder climates. Unless you have a need to keep your Friesian trace-clipped/performance clipped for show, the most blanketing typically needed is a sheet for cold/freezing rain and/or VERY low wind chill. Of course, this varies climate to climate, but overall Friesians handle cold, wet, and snowy conditions with relative ease. They grow very fuzzy winter coats and fluff them up against the cold, leaving their underfluff intact.
