When to Use a Horse Scrim Sheet vs. Anti-Sweat Sheet
Knowing the best time to use a horse scrim sheet versus anti-sweat sheet can be confusing when they both seem to be so similar. Scrim sheets for horses are typically made from a lightweight mesh type fabric that helps repel dust from a horse and your tack when ringside at a horseshow, as well as it can keep bugs off while looking more neat and tidy than a traditional fly-sheet. Anti-sweat sheets for horses are useful in cooling out or drying a horse more quickly after a bath or strenuous exercise, wicking moisture away from their coat so they can dry even faster. Anti-sweat sheets are traditionally made from cotton or a cotton-blend in a waffle or woven knit fabric. They can add some warmth without being as warm as a horse cooler. Horse anti-sweat sheets come in different fits, styles, and colors to match your needs and personality.
