Fly Masks

“Came up true to size around the face, but the ears were a snug fit. The two Velcro tabs at the back were a little fiddly but worked well to keep the mask securely in place. Padded forehead and fleece binding prevented rubs, and mesh stayed away from the horse’s eyes. The forelock hole offered added comfort and prevented rubs. It has worn and washed well.”

The mask offered great coverage and the fabric around the mesh allowed for a close, comfortable fit without heating up the horse during the warmer months. The ears had plenty of room and it stayed secure with the double Velcro fastenings. The mask was worn for long periods of turnout, didn’t show any signs of rubbing and is still in good condition.

Breathable, lightweight fabric that kept the horse cool. True to size, easy to fit and secure due to its stretchy fabric and back zip fastening. Stayed in place during turnout and the mesh around the eyes kept it off the horse’s face. Although pricer than others, it’s going into its second summer with no signs of wear and tear, so worth the investment. 

Soft, comfortable edges ideal for sensitive horses. Secure, strong Velcro fittings ensured the mask didn’t come off. The raised frame over the eyes kept the mask from getting in the horse’s eyes and prevented rubbing. Mesh ears offered extra protection. The detachable nosenet was a useful feature. It has kept its shape and washed well with regular use. 

The mask is very lightweight and, while there wasn’t much structure to the soft mesh, the darts kept it off the horse’s eyes. Generous in size and didn’t rub, but, despite relatively strong and secure Velcro strap, it did come off on days the horse was especially playful. Breathable material kept the horse cool and the ears offered extra coverage and a great fit.

The light, flexible material kept the horse cool and held its shape well. Not the deepest mask so would suit finer types, but didn’t rub and the ears were generous in size. The wide Velcro fastening was secure, easy to use and the mask stayed in place all day. Great for regular use because it washed well and dried quickly.  

The elasticated edging offered a snug fit that kept out flies and, though sizing was generous, gave great coverage. The mesh stayed off the horse’s eyes and Velcro fastenings kept the mask in place. Mesh ears seemed to keep the horse cool, even during very hot weather, and overall the mask has stood up well to wear and washing.

Close-fitting mask that stayed secure all day long. Its unique zip fastening worked well but you needed to perfect the technique to avoid catching hairs when doing it up. Easy to put on and the mesh ears fitted well. The eye mesh had plenty of clearance and sat well away from the horses face. The forlock hole allowed the mask to sit comfortably.  

A traditional style mask that’s proven hardwearing. The fleece edging provides a comfortable fit and helps to block gaps between the mask and the face. The mesh is structured so stays away from the horse’s eyes and face, however proved easier than others to get off. The ears are soft and generous in size, and overall the mask is showing very minimal signs of wear and tear. 

Offered a great fit. The soft material felt like it’d be really comfortable and kept the horse cool while the darts near the eyes kept the mesh away from the eyes. The fleece edging and stretch poll area ensured a close, snug fit and the two touch-tape tabs kept it secure. Great value for all the extra details and the added bonus of UV protection. Still looks like new.
