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.

"After a little trial and error and thanks to the excellent and flexible return policy that Schneiders has, my donkeys got to try out numerous fly sheets and numerous sizes before settling on perfection! These are tough and have been washed many times already this Summer. They clean up great in washing machine and are doing a great job, protecting my donkeys from the biting flies and mosquitoes here in Michigan"
"Pros Body fits great! Adjusted leg straps and no slipping. Cons: Neck piece leaves something to be desired! To short and needs loop closure system!!!!!!"
"The fly sheets are amazing!! My minis love them and I love that they are very durable."
"Even though the product claims to be breathable, my horses were sweating badly on a day that was only a mild TN day. Do not purchase if you live in the South."
"purchased this blanket for my quarter horse built like a good qtr mare, however blanket hangs, had to cut the slits open to help the blanket stay in place on the horse and get air flow on hot days. Lucky had a lengthy saddle bred type horse, works much better for horses with no widthers. Dissapointed. But was able to use on other horse. Not recommended for temps over 95 degrees to hot. Keeps bugs off horse great."
"Runs too large."
"I got this fly sheet for my 11hh pony to stop her from getting sunburnt. It fits like all pony sheets should. Love it. Would definitely recommend."
"Awesome sheet for the money!"
