Materials & care

The fly rug is made from a dense structured mesh fabric, which keeps most bugs off. The mesh is extremely strong and will be an ideal field companion for many summers. The fabric is flat on the inside, this has a soft feeling and makes sure that no hairs will stick to the rug. Thanks to the light color of the rug, it will reflect the sunrays and does not absorb heat. The fine mesh still allows air permeability. The mane, chest and tail area are lined with a smooth polyester to avoid rubbing.

Sizing & fit

The Mesh Fly Rug Comfort is anatomically shaped to stay in the right position, even after rolling. The front of the rug is closed with the comfort closure which is easy to attach and avoids pressure. To protect the belly area the rug features a belly flap. This flap is closed by a hook and loop and 3 straight surcingles. Because the belly cover is close to the horse’s belly, it prevents insects from flying in from the sides. The tail flap is a little bit longer than usual and features an elastic for the tail. Thanks to the elastic, the tail stays close to the rug and offers more protection. The detachable neckpiece is reinforced with a thicker and stronger webbing, so it does not slide down the neck. Because this reinforcement is on both sides of the neck, it does not put pressure directly on the manes.
