Schleswig Horses stand approximately 154 (5 feet 1 inch or 61 inches) - 162 cm(5 feet 4 inches or 65 inches) or 15.2 to 16 hands. The stallions are on average, bigger than the mares. Their legs are strong and dry, lightly feathered. The round hooves are of good quality. The back should be short and well muscled; however, many have backs that are longer than most draft horses. They have deep chests. The head is short and straight with a broad forehead. The neck should be well proportioned. The Schleswiger is usually chestnut colored, although black, grey and bay occur.
