The inspiration behind the Midi Fly Mask with ears.

Sunglasses. These simple products that shield our own eyes are the design inspiration behind our Midi Fly Masks. They don’t cover too much of the face, they provide protection from the sun (and flies too in our horse’s case!), and they need to be comfortable otherwise you might get a headache!

The design of this horse fly mask with ears.

Designed to fit a wide range of horses and ponies, the Midi Fly Mask was made with comfort in mind. After all, horses wear their fly masks for hours at a time!
The fly mask is designed with 2 different types of mesh. There is one which acts as the visor over the eyes and face. This mesh is thicker than the other to give it rigidity and structure to stay away from the sensitive structures on your horses’ face. This mesh also offers over 70% UV protection against the sun’s rays.
The second mesh is a softer, elasticated one which sits around the jaw and over the ears and poll. We wanted something comfortable for the horse, but also something close fitting so that the pesky flies couldn’t get underneath the mask.

Other comfort features include:

Adjustable fastenings under the cheeks and behind the ears of the fly mask. This ensures the perfect fit and stops any nasty insects getting inside.
Soft sponge padding located on the nose and brow areas. This means that these areas, which sit close to the horse’s skin, are kept rub free.
‘Horse-shaped' ears provide ample space for your horse whether they have small or large ears.
Lastly, the Midi Horse Fly Mask with ears features strategically placed darts. These darts are positioned on the front of the mask and keep it clear of the eyes and eyelashes.

Customising your horse’s Midi Fly Mask

We've introduced additions to the Field Relief range to allow you to customise the fly mask to yours and your horse’s needs. If you'd like to add a nosepiece to this fly mask, take a look at our Detachable Nosepiece. If your horse is bothered by the flies, but doesn't need UV protection, you might want to consider the Muzzle Fringe instead.

Our fly masks all carry a one-year guarantee, but most last for several seasons. Long lasting and easy to wash, the Field Relief Midi Fly Mask comes in a variety of sizes from ponies to large horses. The Midi Fly Mask also provides excellent visibility so is ideal for veterans, visually impaired and spooky horses! Also available, Field Relief Midi without ears.

Due to the smooth surface of the stretch panel, there should be very little chance of the mane being rubbed.

The fly rug has not been specifically tested for aiding sweet itch sufferers, but due to the close weave of the materials a significant level of protection is offered from insect bites.

Denier is a unit of measurement used to determine the fibre thickness of individual threads or filaments used in the creation of textiles and fabrics. Fabrics with a high denier count tend to be thick and sturdy. Fabrics with a low denier count tend to be sheer, soft, and silky. The weight of our fly rug mesh is 160gsm to make sure the rug is durable, yet lightweight and breathable.

Our monochrome hexagonal print had on average 51% less landings than plain and coloured designs during our in-house fly attraction testing.

 

The Field Relief Fly Masks are designed to protect your horse from UV rays from the sun and offer relief from flies. If worn overnight, it may well restrict your horses vision. We recommend the mask is removed and checked twice a day.

The Field Relief masks have soft sponge padding across the brow and nose for extra comfort. The masks can be worn for up to 12 hours, but must be kept clean and removed and checked regularly for maximum comfort.

Some horses just do not like their ears to be covered and will rub them if they are covered by a mask therefore often resulting in the mask coming off. If you choose the Field Relief Midi Fly Mask Without Ears you should find that going on the hunt for the mask in the field is a less frequent occurrence!

The Field Relief Max protects the horse’s face from the tips of the ears to the end of the nose. The Max comes with a removable, adjustable nosepiece. The Field Relief Midi does not have a nosepiece; it is designed for the less sensitive horse for general protection from flies. The Midi comes with and without ears, but an additional nosepiece or muzzle fringe is available to buy should your horse need it.
