Fly mask
"It is not snug enough. My horse will not keep it on."
x span mosquito mask
"fits well, holds its form well, my horse loves it! The under the jaw stretch material is not a sweaty hard mess like other masks and the top velcro is really adjustable."
Nice mask but doesn’t fit my horse
"I like this mask a lot. I typically buy the stretchy bug eye style but wanted to explore this style. I like the stretch under the jaw to not impede natural chewing. The fit issue is that my mare has a big-boned head, big eyes, and long eyelashes (she’s an Iberian / mustang cross), and this was touching her eyes too much. If you have a horse with a more delicate-boned head or smaller eyes this would be a great option. I’m keeping it and storing it in my stash of horse stuff for a future horse, lol. For my mare I’ll stick with the bug-eye ones; I bought one those from Schneiders with a butterfly print and we love it! Much more durable than the main competitor."
Great mask!
"Fits great, easy to put on and best of all it washes well!!!"
Nice Flymask
"Nice fly mask, the stretch panel on the bottom is heavy duty. I was a little disappointed with the quality, but its breathable. I did expect it to be a little more durable but overall its nice. I have a horse that is in between cob and Full and this is too big on her but I can at least make the Velcro tighter overall cool concept!"
This is only one of
"This is only one of the masks my horse actually has kept on! She even dips her head when I go to put it back on to help me out. I like the fitted stretchy material that goes under the jaw. It provides a snugger fit without being too tight and seems like it makes it more difficult for her to remove. I also like the velcro that goes over the poll to achieve a more custom size as my mare has hard-to-fit proportions. The mesh is pretty durable so far and is just wide enough for my horse's head so that her eyes have some room, although I wish it had a lot more UV protection as it really doesn't provide much in the way of blocking the sun. She's been wearing this mask 24/7 for about the past 6 weeks and so far I'm pretty happy with it."
No more missing mask!
"This mask is not only comfortable for my horse, it stays on! I love the way it velcros behind my horse’s ears."
Well made, love everything about
"Well made, love everything about the style and fit. ( Dutch Wareblood) Hopefully it will be something she loves also."
I have this on my
"I have this on my Friesian gelding. It is so soft around the nose and head and is lovely to look at but more important extremely comfortable. An exellent choice and we have a matching fly sheet which fits like a dream and does the job!"
