Schneiders® Cooling Soft Interlock Mesh® II Oversized Euro Surcingle Fly Sheet

A Cooling Fly Sheet Cut for the Bigger Horse

Cooling yarns draw heat and inhibit sweating, so this sheet cools off as your horse heats up. Made for the oversized horse, with wider bindings for added strength, 80% UV protection, SilverTek® antibacterial lining and reflective stripes.
1
Cools as your horse heats up
The 300-denier polyester interlock mesh is blended with 45% polyester and 55% nylon cooling yarns, so the sheet cools off as your horse heats up and inhibits sweating under it. Better airflow, for horses in warm or moderate weather.
2
Shade on a big frame
The soft, opaque mesh blocks 80% of UV, so a pale or clipped coat doesn't bleach in the sun. Best rating against gnats, midges, and stable and deer flies; Better for horse flies and mosquitoes.

3
Room through the shoulder, soft at the wither
Designed with a Euro fit, this sheet accommodates both sloped and upright shoulder conformations and is well suited for horses with a low to flat shorter wither, balanced muscle tone, and smoother, flatter topline appearance. A fleece comfort strip at the wither, and reinforced gussets placed so your horse can graze, roll and move freely.
4
Built stronger for a bigger horse
Every binding is wider than on our horse-sized cooling sheet, for added strength. An open front with two buckles, crisscross surcingles with detachable elastic leg straps, and reflective stripes on the flanks and tail.

Finding the Right Fit

Euro Fit Guide Designed with a Euro fit, this sheet accommodates both sloped and upright shoulder conformations and is well suited for horses with a low to flat shorter wither, balanced muscle tone, and smoother, flatter topline appearance. Measure chest to tail, along the side of the body across the widest part of the shoulder and hindquarters. If you land between sizes, size up — a snug fit causes pinching and rubs.

My horse runs hot so it has been great to have an option for him that cools him and doesn't make him warm. The fit is great and the flies stay off him.

Key benefits

Cooling Material + SilverTek® Technology

The fly sheet’s 300D interlock polyester mesh is blended with 45% polyester and 55% nylon cooling yarns, creating a material that actively cools your horse as they heat up. This sweat-wicking, hygroscopic fabric keeps your horse comfortable and dry, even in direct sunlight. Ideal for horses in warm or moderate climates, it also protects against small to medium-biting insects like gnats and flies. A breathable 70D SilverTek® Nylon lining has been included on the front chest, shoulders, and tail flap. This technology has proven antibacterial properties that reduce rubs, odor, and irritations. When it comes into contact with bacteria or other microorganisms, the silver ions are released from the fabric, distributing their cell membranes and interfering with their metabolic processes. As a result, growth is inhibited, reducing the number of bacteria on the fabric’s surface. This keeps your horse healthier and the fabric cleaner, even after extended use and wear.

Designed to Fit All Breeds Comfortably

This sheet is specifically designed for a comfortable fit on oversized and draft horses. The reinforced gussets are positioned for optimal freedom of movement, allowing your horse to graze, roll, or run easily. Plus, the large tail cover provides extra protection your horse might need. Our Euro fly sheets fit straight from the withers through the back that's designed to drape comfortably and adapts to most breeds and conformations. The sheet comes up 4-6 inches onto the mane, fully covering the shoulders and withers. The Euro fly sheets also have extra comfortable fleece at the withers to prevent rubbing.

Fly Material and Fit Guide

Thoughtful Design and Secure Closures

This fly sheet is built with thoughtful features to make your oversize horse more comfortable and your life easier. All bindings are wider than our horse-sized cooling fly sheet, providing added strength and longevity to best support your oversized horse. The open front design features double front buckles with new and improved wider hook and loop closures, allowing you to easily adjust the fly sheet for the perfect amount of "snugness" at the front of the chest. The criss-cross surcingle closure with chrome-plated hardware option adjusts to keep the fly sheet from sliding side to side. Comes with detachable elastic leg straps for increased security. The elastic leg straps adjust up to 48” and keep the sheet in place while accommodating natural movement.

Safety in the Dark - Reflective Features

For extra safety precautions, we’ve added highly visible reflective stripes on the flanks and tail for extra visibility in low light and night turnout.

Reviews

Great sheet for hot climates, runs large

"I live in the sticky, humid U. S. southeast, and this sheet does the best job keeping my horse protected without sweating. Compared to her mosquito mesh sheet, she stays cooler in this one. The only drawback is that this does not have the adjusta-fit straps, so it sits back a little far on the shoulder - no issue with rubs, but it hangs lower on my horse's hind end than I would like. I would size down if I purchased again. Otherwise, great sheet - it washes up beautifully too in a regular home washer. No snags or rips (and my horse is a rolling, rubby girl with access to fences, trees, and other horses)."

— Gillian N. (5/5)

Huge neck hole

"This is my 3rd attempt at a Schneider fly sheet and a third failure. The length and fabric were perfect but the neck opening was huge and there is no way to adjust it. Therefore, the first time we tried it, it slipped back and, well, it's badly stained and can't be returned. Another donation to the barn."

— Elisabeth B. (1/5)

Certainly stopped bites on my horses!

"its that time of year where mosquitos are out in force so I bought these rugs, they all fit well, but they cant be used when its super hot as the horses sweat a great deal! They are heavier than I anticipated"

— The B. (4/5)

Ripped first week

"This fly sheet ripped on the inside shoulder the first week. Not well made. It’s also thick and hot material. Don’t buy."

— Christy M. (1/5)

Fits well; love it

"Love the fit of this sheet and it keeps the horse's coat cool"

— Karen P. (5/5)

Beautiful sheet

"Ver nice fitting sheet, runs a bit large"

— Robin N. (5/5)

Great Sheet

"I really like the fly sheet. It's holding up well with regular use and 23hr daily turnout."

— Cynthia H. (5/5)

Perfect for Hot Weather!

"This light weight fly blanket is durable and a soft material that moves nicely with your active horse. This is not a stiff netting material. Easy to wash. If torn, the tear doesn’t run. Fits well."

— REGINA C. (5/5)

Love the fly sheet

"Love the fly sheet! Also very thankful for the help in getting the type and size I needed."

— Maureen B. (5/5)

Love this sheet

"I’ve tried many fly sheets but this one seems to work the best for my horse! No swishing and he does not sweat underneath! Would definitely buy again. Love the quality."

— Amy M. (5/5)
