How Our Score Is Calculated

Product Description

UV-Ray: 70% average UV blocking, assisting in reducing the risk of sun burn and sun bleaching. Minimum 60% rating for eye mesh The effectiveness of a product may deteriorate over time.
Unobstructed Vision: A fine mesh screen panel protects while not obstructing vision. To avoid rubbing, there is plenty of space between the mask and the horse's eyes.
Ear Protection: Your horse's most vulnerable areas are protected by this highly breathable fly mask. Ergonomically designed to close gaps, distribute pressure evenly, and fit comfortably over your horse's ears and face.
Superior soft and smooth fleece padding along the seams keeps the fly mask away from your eyes and ensures a secure fit.
Adjustable velcros are included under the chin for a secure fit. Check to see if one of your fingers can fit between the mask and the horse's muzzle, throat latch, or side of the head.

Selected User Reviews For Shires Fine Mesh Fly Mask with Ears

The material used for the mask around the eyes is a fine, stiff screen material, while the material used for the ears is more athletic jersey-like
5/5

It has kept those pesky little midge flies out of her ears, and the inner lining is fuzzy, so I don't think she'll get sores around her forelock like she has with other masks I've tried. I ordered a cob size, but she has an arab head, so it still fits her, but I'd order a smaller size simply because of the velcro closure under her jaw line. I would highly recommend this brand.

The Shire Masks are the most comfortable to wear! Shire masks have the best fit of any mask on the market
5/5

I own Arabian horses and have bought a variety of brands. Shire masks keep the netting out of the horses' eyes, last a long time, and I love the little reflective bit on the nose for nighttime visibility.

This is a fantastic product at a great price! This is the most beautiful fly mask I've ever seen! My small QH's head is just right for the Cob Size
5/5

The fine mesh provides ample "eye room" while keeping gnats out. There will be no chafing because of the soft trim. Overall, this is a fantastic product that deserves two thumbs up!.

I've found that this is the best
5/5

This mask is absolutely gorgeous! The visibility through the black mesh is excellent, it's well-made, stretchy for a good fit, and it has two hooks. Tabs with loops for closure It was suggested by a friend, and she was correct.

It's an excellent match
5/5

It fits him perfectly and keeps the flies away, which are especially bad this year! It's simple to put on and adjust, and the color is eye-catching. It was well worth the money.

Great quality for the price paid; it is not cheaply made, and I expect it to last longer than one summer
5/5

It doesn't irritate his face because of the fleece lining on the seams. The mesh is structured enough that it does not come into contact with his eyes. I am extremely pleased with my purchase.

It appears to have a better chance of staying on
5/5

In fact, it appears to be resistant to horses removing their masks. It's been raining here every day since I got it, so I haven't had a chance to use it yet. The order was delivered on time.

The size that was sent to us was incorrect
3/5

I ordered a cob size but received a full size, which is too big for my colt, so I won't be able to use it. The quality is fine; this is the brand of fly mask that I normally use; however, the size is incorrect.
