Schneiders® Soft Interlock Mesh® II Attached Neck Euro Bellyband Zebra Fly Sheet

Shade From Ears to Tail, in Stripes That Can Help Deter Flies

Soft, opaque interlock mesh blocks 80% of UV, so a pale or clipped horse can stand out in the sun, and the attached neck carries that shade from ears to tail. Zebra stripes that can help deter flies from landing, SilverTek® antibacterial lining and reflective stripes.
1
Shade for a pale or clipped coat
The soft, opaque 300-denier interlock mesh blocks 80% of UV, so a pale or clipped horse can stand out in the sun without bleaching or burning. Best rating against gnats, midges, and stable and deer flies; Better for horse flies and mosquitoes.
2
Stripes that can help keep flies off
The zebra print is more than a look: the irregular stripe pattern can help deter flies from landing on your horse. Better airflow, for a horse with shelter in moderate weather.

3
Covered from ears to tail
Designed with our Extra Coverage Euro fit, this sheet accommodates both sloped and upright shoulder conformations and adds an attached neck for coverage from ears to tail, well suited for horses with a low to flat shorter wither, balanced muscle tone, and a smoother, flatter topline. The neck joins the sheet with stretchy lycra, so your horse can put their head down to graze, and it doesn't detach.
4
Lined where it touches, closed underneath
SilverTek® antibacterial nylon lines the chest, shoulders and the extra-large tail cover. A bellyband with elastic inserts covers the underside, where flies and midges bite, and reflective stripes on the flanks and tail show up in low light.

All About the Attached Neck Euro Fit

Our Attached Neck Euro fly sheets fit straight from the withers through the back for a comfortable fit for ALL breeds with the innovative SilverTek® antibacterial nylon lining. The attached neck connects to the sheet with a stretchy lycra that allows your horse to put their head down to graze comfortably. It also prevents the sheet from slipping forward, maintaining coverage no matter the conditions. With the Attached Neck Euro Fit, your horse will be protected from ears to tail.

Fly Material and Fit Guide

An Open Front Design with Front Buckles for Easy On and Off

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.

SilverTek® Lined Chest, Shoulders, and Tail

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 that may cause your horse discomfort during the hot summer months. 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.

Better Gusset Design for Additional Freedom

The reinforced gussets extend higher and more forward to allow a greater range of motion when your horse gets up from lying down, walking, or playing in the pasture.

Bellyband Closure for Better Protection

The bellyband closure option protects from flies and midges biting along the sensitive underbelly. Chrome-plated hardware is positioned to avoid rubbing or poking while your horse is lying down, and the t-post hardware on the bellyband closure includes locking bands and incorporates elastic inserts for more give as the horse moves since the proper fit is with the bellyband snug and flush to the belly.

SilverTek® Lined Extra-Large Tail Cover for Extra Protection

The extra-large tail cover protects from flies attacking the sensitive area underneath the tail. The added SilverTek® lining reduces potential hair breakage, keeping your horse’s tail fuller and looking better!

Reflective Stripes for Added Safety

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.

Leg Straps Included

Set the sheet to the optimum snugness with the included detachable elastic leg straps that help keep the sheet in place. They adjust from 20" to 38" and stretch as the horse moves with double chrome-plated snaps for easy on and off.

Reviews

Hate it!

"The 78" was too tight and the 80" fits awful! It falls to the side or to the back. I am constantly repositioning it. The velcro on the neck cover catches the blanket, bunches it up and snags the fabric. A total waste of money for my horse anyway!"

— Lori (2/5)

It worked but. . .

"It definitely repelled the flies! But the knit material tended to slide backwards but would not slide forward against the hair. So it started rubbing him where his neck meets his chest. I had to undo all the straps to reposition it. Perhaps having a halter on the horse to anchor the attached neck strap would help. But my horses are all on 24 hour turnout and I won't put even a break-away halter on one."

— JEAN C. (3/5)

Fits great! I put the

"Fits great! I put the fly sheet and face mask on my old mare and she stood quiet and relaxed, while the other horse with no sheet was switching its tail and fighting flies like crazy. True test will be see how it holds up to wear."

— Loyce B. (5/5)

Euro Belly band fly sheet

"Excellent fly sheet. Not too heavy. Helps protect from summer sores. Good quality and fit."

— Audrey N. (5/5)

Fly sheet

"Ripped already in front. Mouthy boy but isn't the most durable fly sheet"

— MINDY M. (3/5)

Works great.

"The pattern seems to deter flies somewhat better than most and I like that all the parts match. Looks good on my gray mare!"

— Leslie R. (5/5)

Cute but will not hold up

"I wanted to love this sheet. My daughter picked it out and it is adorable. My issue with this sheet is that the Velcro sticks to the material horrible and from my horse grazing the neck just gets bunched up and stuck on the Velcro. Thankfully customer service is great and they are willing to allow me to exchange."

— Laura (1/5)

"I might have laughed more than a little when i dressed my horses in zebra clothes."

— Timberdoodle (5/5)

My favorite fly sheet!

"I used to buy the Bucas zebra sheet but I found the quality of those had declined. The design of this sheet is even better than Bucas. I find this sheet lasts longer and doesn’t rub. Whenever these go on sale I buy another one! It’s nice to have a few so I can wash them."

— LINSAY E. (5/5)

Could be better

"I was very excited for this fly sheet. I my horse measured 73in so I decided to order a 72in I figured it would be a little small. When I got it I chose to just put it on without anything on underneath because I didn't have a clean sheet. Plus I figured it would fit. It is big on her but works okay. I will continue to use it. The other thing I found is the velcro on the neck piece when you take the sheet off. The velcro sticks to the fabric and is messing it up. I'm not sure how long it will last. I think it would work better if there were metal clips like on the belly band. I must say I was really happy with the belly band and the closer."

— Amelia (3/5)
