Key benefits

The Fly Sheet with the BEST Cooling Material and Exceptional UV Protection

This fly sheet offers an exceptional 80% UV protection rating and is constructed with cooling technology for comfortable wearing. It combines interlocking 300D polyester mesh and nylon cooling yarn that are hygroscopic and sweat-releasing. As your horse heats up, the fly sheet works hard to cool and inhibit sweating, ensuring that your horse stays comfortable even in direct sunlight. You'll also find that this sheet allows for airflow that's perfect for horses that live in moderate to warm climates and protects from small to medium-sized biting insects, such as gnats and flies.

All About the Euro Fit

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.

Fly Fit Guide

An Open Front Design 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.

Criss-Cross Surcingle Closure for Better Protection

The criss-cross surcingle closure with chrome-plated hardware option adjusts to keep the fly sheet from sliding side to side. Comes with locking bands and detachable elastic leg straps for increased security.

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® nylon 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 at 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

Great sheet for hot climates, runs large

"I live in the sticky, humid U. S. southeast, and this sheet does the best job keeping my horse protected without sweating. Compared to her mosquito mesh sheet, she stays cooler in this one. The only drawback is that this does not have the adjusta-fit straps, so it sits back a little far on the shoulder - no issue with rubs, but it hangs lower on my horse's hind end than I would like. I would size down if I purchased again. Otherwise, great sheet - it washes up beautifully too in a regular home washer. No snags or rips (and my horse is a rolling, rubby girl with access to fences, trees, and other horses)."

— Gillian N. (5/5)

Good flysheet and help keep my OTTB cool

"I live in SoCal and with the current heat wave, most other flysheets would be way to hot to have on. I’ve noticed decreased sweat with this one, and the quality is also really good. My last felt sheet from Schneiders lasted 7 years."

— Aeva R. (5/5)

Huge neck hole

"This is my 3rd attempt at a Schneider fly sheet and a third failure. The length and fabric were perfect but the neck opening was huge and there is no way to adjust it. Therefore, the first time we tried it, it slipped back and, well, it's badly stained and can't be returned. Another donation to the barn."

— Elisabeth B. (1/5)

Certainly stopped bites on my horses!

"its that time of year where mosquitos are out in force so I bought these rugs, they all fit well, but they cant be used when its super hot as the horses sweat a great deal! They are heavier than I anticipated"

— The B. (4/5)

Ripped first week

"This fly sheet ripped on the inside shoulder the first week. Not well made. It’s also thick and hot material. Don’t buy."

— Christy M. (1/5)

Fly sheet

"Can’t use either of the last two styles I ordered, rubbing on my mares withers. The products are of good quality, my mare has lost muscling in and around the wither area."

— JANET C. (5/5)

Great fly sheet

"Fit was perfect… I followed the sizing guidelines. Works wonderfully!"

— Jennifer L. (5/5)

"No shoulder padding, rubs wither hair off!"

— Terrie M. (1/5)

— Karen P. (5/5)

"Ver nice fitting sheet, runs a bit large"

— Robin N. (5/5)
