Harrison HowardHarrison Howard Super Comfort Horse Fly Mask Elasticity Fly Mask with Ears UV Protection for Horse Vibrant Orange L Full Size

I've used quite a few different brands of stretchy fly masks and I quite like this brand. It's affordable and the fit is fine. One of the biggest issues with stretchy fly masks are the eye holes. MANY masks are sold with mesh that's designed to be way too close to the horse's eyes, causing irritation or even injury. These masks have darts in the mesh around the eye holes which helps keep the mesh away from the eyes and there's enough material to keep the mesh away from the eyes as well. I personally like to turn my masks inside out so that the seams of the mask aren't touching the horse. I bought the horse size for my 16hh QH and it fits great.My mask arrived in very nice packaging as well, which was a nice touch.I just want to also say for those folks who aren't very familiar with stretchy masks: holes are probably going to happen. Horses love to shove their faces into things and they'll likely put a couple holes into the masks after awhile. It's no big deal. The tradeoff for getting a light-weight, breathable, no vision-impairment, tight-fitting mask is that the materials are naturally not as durable as a triple-ply coated traditional mask. Got holes in the mesh? Grab a bit of superglue, dab it on the cut edges, and let it dry between wax paper. Holes in the lycra? Sew it up or superglue it. No big deal.

Overall this is one of the better masks, I should know I have now purchased 7 of them, all for the same horse. The design is great but the execution could be better. Now please bear in mind I am putting these on an 1800 pound Percheron teddy bear that loves to scratch, and there in lies the rub, no pun intended. The netting is far too light weight to take ANY rubbing without snagging or out right tearing. And in the case of my boy the eye netting could be fuller to keep his eye lashes from being constantly in the netting. We won't even go in to the ear netting that's gone in the first 15 minutes, I have just started cutting that off from the get go. I am buying the largest units made, perhaps on a smaller horse these issues are not issues at all, do not know. I DO recommend the mask I really do, in my case they just come up a bit short of being a 5 star item.

I opted to get four of these instead of Professional's Choice since the Pro Choice one's I got last year have some wear and tear here and there. The fit of these is not quite the same. They seem to be a little longer and the fabric a little more thick but not as stretchy making for a slightly looser fit in my opinion. The horses are losing these more often than the Pro Choice ones. These were slightly cheaper, but next time I'll go back to the Pro Choice. These might be more durable, but I'd rather go with the ones that'll stay on even if it means I have to replace them more often.

Mr. P likes it!I was tired of Velcro straps of other mask losing their grip. I saw this so I gave it a shot. So far my Mr. P likes it. It was fairly easy to put on. I did have to cut the ear off as Mr. P doesn’t like ear covering, which was easy to do and it did not affect the integrity of the rest of the mask. I really like that I can still put the halter on him with the mask on and go for a walk. I give this product 2 thumbs up! 👍👍I also have to say, the color compliments him very well!

I wish these would have worked out, the insects are already going inside horses' ears and making sores, so I quickly ordered a mask for each of my horses. The masks were easy to get on because they are super stretchy; however, there was not a single mask on within 8 hours after first putting them on. One was found in my mare's smooth-sided rounded hay tub and the other was found in the grass in the middle of the pasture. So apparently these masks come off easy - way too easy; in fact, a cow could probably shimmy it off her head in no time at all. I returned these and will be purchasing a more structured mask for my horses which they can't slip off.

I LOVE the stretchy Harrison Howard fly mask! My horses had troubles with the traditional styled velcro closure masks with daily wear causing rub marks on their noses and jaws and flies could crawl under the closure and buzz inside of the mask. These stretchy masks fit snuggly and don't rub at all! They are cooler too. The only downside I can see is that if your horse isn't conditioned to daily handle of their noses and face, it will make it difficult to put on....think panty hose for the face, but not quite as tight! Also, if you have a horse that is Houdini or rubs on everything, they will rub the mask off or snag it. But the price is very reasonable and these are easily washable. Buy several! I have a Thoroughbred and Morab. The Horse/large fits the Thoroughbred and the Cob/medium fits the Morab.

I ordered this fly mask for my hypersensitive, high-strung rescue who cannot stand flies around his face. The thought was it was form-fitting enough for him to wear under the bridle. The mask was delivered quickly, in good condition, and appears to be of good quality. He even stood relatively quietly while I struggled to get it on and shape it around his face. Sadly, it was just too small. He wears a regular horse size halter and bridle, and this was marked horse size. I am not returning it. It fits our large pony and she is rocking it. Most fly masks border on too big, but this one you really have to order one size up. Had it fit, I would have rated it 5 stars.

Once on, this is a nice fly mask. But it's not easy to put on. It requires some patience on behalf of the horse as one wriggles and stretches it over the horse's head. It fits snuggly, but does not appear to be so tight that it bothers my horses. I tried it on my two most patient horses, and it fit them both pretty well, but seemed a bit tight. The tight fit prevents my delinquent horse from being able to remove it from his buddy. It would be nicer if it had a hole for the forelock.Sort of a mixed review, but personally, I prefer the mesh masks with velcro, particularly the one made by "Horze". I find myself putting other masks on my horses, and not this stretchy one.

This mask had been out before as there were white hairs on it and a dirty mark. Fits nicely so kept it because I needed it but really should t have been sent out used

Absolutely brilliant, easy to put on, stays on due to the stretchy fabric and doesn't seem as cumbersome and heavy as some other fly masks.Easy to wash and excellent value for money, would happily recommend this product.

Nice fit and I’m really pleased however this did spin around and my pony couldn’t see which worried me and I won’t leave on over night now

For the price they are very good

Could get on my warmblood full size is pony size
