With this fly sheet with an adjustable surcingle closure, you’ll have the added confidence that your horse will be more comfortable during the summer. It’s constructed from a 300D textured, shiny, reflective nylon mesh that allows for the greatest amount of airflow. The absence of side seams reduces the likelihood of rips or tears in those areas, and the contour back seam provides a better fit and increased comfort for the horse. It includes reflective stripes for safety and SilverTek® technology with antibacterial nylon lining on the chest, shoulders, and tail. It protects your horse from small to medium-sized insects, such as gnats and flies, while providing 40% UV protection.
When choosing a fly sheet for your horse, the key considerations should include fabric breathability and durability, insect and UV protection needed depending on turnout needs. This sheet is right for your horse if you’re looking for an extremely breathable material while providing durable protection from biting insects and the sun. Don’t forget your matching neck cover!
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.
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. Plus, the buckles make it easy to put on and remove.
The criss-cross surcingle closure adjusts to keep the fly sheet from sliding side to side. Comes with locking bands and detachable elastic leg straps for increased security.

The most accurate and easiest way to determine your horse’s blanket size is to measure along the side of their body, from chest to tail. First, stand the horse square on a flat surface. Measure from the center of the chest, straight back to the very edge of the tail. Make sure to measure along the widest part of their shoulder and hindquarters. The number of inches measured in this way is your horse’s size. Look on the size chart for any Schneiders blanket for this number of inches to order your horse’s perfect size.

"I bought one of these sheets because I wanted a lighter weight sheet to use during this humid weather. This sheet is that & more. I love the weight, the design, & the added features like the reflective strips. I liked it so much I immediately ordered another for my other horse & am looking to add a third. So far it seems well made & holding up well. I definitely recommend it!"
"Took me a bit to try the sheet on as my new rescue was weary 😜 but slowly we did it and it fits perfectly! Maybe a lil warm underneath after wearing for 30min in the field but it’s definitely more airy than others"
"It’s a nice mesh fly sheet, light enough for my hot Nevada summers. I’m not liking the way it fits my mustangs chest area as it gaps near the top area on both sides. I’ve tried it at different tightness on the chest straps and it still does it. For my horse I wouldn’t buy it again."
"Good airflow. I live in a hot humid climate and this fly sheet does not make them sweaty underneath. I bought it mainly for the belly band and that works as expected. The material is very sturdy and very breathable. It is true to size as well."
"This sheet is quite oversized, runs about 6” to big when I ordered same size winter blanket. I returned it for an exchange, however after almost 4 weeks after they received it, no message no replacement sheet. When I called turns out the sheet had been on back order for about 2 weeks. After all this I asked for a refund. I was never notified of it being on back order, and would have easily accepted another color. My horse has been wearing his old sheet that doesn’t stay on him very well… but at this point will do for this season. Maybe next year??"
"We live in Missouri with hot, humid summers. These fly sheets do no creating any sweat. The protection from the flies is great. One horse has extremely sensitive skin. They have also held up for two summers so far without any issues!"
"I’ve had this for 2 seasons now and it’s held up well, the belly straps broke off when my mare got caught up in it but it is easily fixable and I would way rather it break than her break. Keeps my mare from breaking out in hives due to bugs and doesn’t make her too warm when she’s living outside 24/7."
"These work really well in the Texas heat. They wear really well and do seem to have pretty good air flow. My only complaint is that they do seem to run rather large. My guy normally fits an 81 perfectly but in this style it is too big."
"Sheet has been on pastured horse for about four weeks and held up well in weather. He doesn’t seem to be too hot with the light lavender color. Fits well and covers a great deal of body so his sweet itch is much better this year."
"Great quality and loved the personalization ability! Highly recommend! True to size!"
