Poor fit
"The weight makes the fly sheet slide down his rear making the neck opening to tight and puts pressure on his withers"

Tears and snags are bound to happen, but this Senior VTEK® Wither Relief RipGuard Fly Sheet with a surcingle closure is the best self-repairing sheet available. It's available in three fits for all wither types and even senior horses. The advanced diamond interwoven mesh works like magic when it self-repairs against snags that could later turn into tears. When you see a snag, you simply rub the fabric between your hands to repair the fabric. Designed for horses that like to play hard in the pasture, these sheets deliver fantastic protection against small to medium-sized insects, such as gnats and flies. Plus, the 70% UV protection rating keeps them safe from the sun.

The RipGuard Adjusta-Fit® Fly Sheets are constructed from a special diamond interwoven 350D ripstop mesh x 600D soft-interlocking mesh that self-repairs snags, which can lead to larger tears. When you see a small snag occur, you simply rub the fabric back and forth between your fingers to repair the material. This sheet allows for airflow perfect for horses living in moderate to warm climates with the best insect protection against small to medium-sized 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.

"The weight makes the fly sheet slide down his rear making the neck opening to tight and puts pressure on his withers"
"Really pleased with this purchase. Fits well and is durable."
"My gelding is incredibly hard on his fly sheets! This one lasted longer than expected! About four months, which is a record for this horse. After that, I was able to use the warranty and get a brand new one. Thanks Schneiders for having quality products and standing by your warranties!"
"My mare is super allergic to the flies and this fly sheet works wonders for her! The bellyband is an absolute must if you have a horse that gets hives. 10/10 would recommend!!"
"This was amazing!! Fits my retired senior paint mare (quarter horse build). She normally swells with other blank sets as they don't fit her neck right. So happy with this purchase. Fits her great and no unnecessary swelling. Highly recommend"
"I wanted to like this it fits great, looks nice but after 1 hour of my horse wearing it he was sweaty. Putting it away for fall. My horse has year round allergies. In all fairness we live in Florida but this evening was not humid and it was mid 80's. It's only April. Still on the quest for the best summer fly sheet. Sticking to the Dura Tech material for summer even though the fit is not as good. It would be great if there were V Free and V Tek fitting in the Dura Tech material."
"Absolutely love this product. I hope it holds up. I measured my mare at 80 but bought an 82 just in case and I should have stuck with the 80. Feel like it fits true to size but also had adjustable straps on the shoulders that are awesome."
"Love it"
"I bought this for my retired OTTB mare who is in pasture 24/7. It fits well & does not rub her shoulders like many other sheets & blankets."
"Easy to navigate!"
