Fly Rugs

“The rug looked really good and felt good-quality. It fitted well when first put on, but could pull back if the Velcro at the front came undone. I also found the hood sometimes slipped off my horse’s ears when he put his head down. However, I really liked the full neck cover and belly flap for extra protection.”

“The rug provided great all-over coverage. It was well cut, meaning it stayed in place and allowed my horse to move freely, although the sizing was generous and he comfortably wore a size smaller than usual. It did exactly what it says on the tin and I’d buy it again.”

“I really liked this rug. It gave great coverage, especially with the extra belly protection, and the magnetic catch on the front fastening was really handy. My horse seemed very comfortable in it and after a whole summer of regular wear it’s still completely intact, ready for another year.”

“It’s a lovely, lightweight rug and my mare didn’t overheat, even in really warm weather. The neck was a great length and I liked the long tail flap. It sat really well and didn’t pull back or slip. It doesn’t have a belly wrap, but was perfect for my mare who isn’t particularly irritated by flies under her tummy.”

“The rug seemed effective and looked smart. It was true to size, but a little snug on my chunky part-native horse. The fastenings were secure and easy to do up, but I found the Velcro straps sometimes snagged on the mesh and pulled threads loose. However, I’d buy one again.”

“The fabric felt quite thick, but my horse didn’t sweat and it was breathable on very hot days. It also stretched well. The fastenings were easy to do up, but I found the ears could slip off, which made the neck slip round. When the ears were in place, it provided good protection.”

“It looked smart and I liked the pop of colour. However, I found that because it’s stretchy it could slip if worn for long periods and my horse got a bit sweaty on very hot days. It was easy to do up, really lightweight and offered reasonable fly protection.”

“This rug was true to size and the generous depth offered plenty of protection. The fittings were easy to do up and it stayed secure, but the neck sometimes slipped down when my horse raised his head. I liked the zebra print and overall it’s a really smart rug.”

“This was a useful rug, especially for the price. However, I found it could slip back if my horse wore it all day. Other than this, it was great – I really liked the long tail guard with the elastic loop to put the tail through and the coloured binding was very eye-catching.”
