Best fly mask option!
"This is my go-to fly mask with ears! It stays on well, if you have sized it correctly. I like that you can pull the forelock out, it is durable, and stands up to washing quite well."
Outfit your horse in a comfortable and protective Cashel® Crusader™ Fly Mask. The fly mask’s material is designed with soft yet durable plastic-coated mesh that allows air to flow through and keeps small, irritating insects out. You’ll find options with or without ears and even an extended nose option with ears for optimal protection. This mask also blocks up to 70% of the sun’s damaging UV rays, protecting your horse’s eyes and soft tissue while preventing painful sunburns.

"I’ve tried pretty much every style and brand of fly mask, and the Cashel Crusader is hands down the best. The full face with ears is great for keeping away pesky gnats and flies, but also great for horses with bald faces or large blazes as it keeps them from sunburns. The double velcro latch is handy for playful or destructive horses and I have several masks that have lasted years on horses that aren’t as playful (older geldings, donkeys, etc). If you get them embroidered, they’re super cute and easy to identify for each horse too!"
"Second time I have purchased this fly mask, and I will continue to purchase this in the future as needed. Fits well, covers all areas that I need it to cover, does its job to keep flies and other insects out of my horse's face, plus I really like the forelock hole. I would highly recommend this product."
"Have absolutely loved this fly mask for my horse! Good quality and covers up his nose perfectly. Definitely would buy this item again!"
"Had to get the Warmblood to fit my big headed horses but they sure work well! Love the secure straps and the roominess."
"Seems to hold up better than another brand I've tried."
"My fussy Holsteiner mare does well with this face mask. Her eyes are sensitive to winds and this acts to mediate the wind, reduce tearing and she doesn’t rub it on fences. Great product."
"I love this fly mask. My Gypsy Vanner is allergic to everything. I Swat his ears and put on mask, no more eatten up tender ears or vet bills. The long nose protects his pink skin from the sun and the mask helps protect his blue eye."
"Durable, good protection, and stays on"
"This is the best Fly mask ever it’s sturdy. It holds up to hard usage by all my horses. This is the only fly mask. I’ve ever discovered that the horses like and want to have on them."
