Weaver Leather Covered Ear Fly Mask - 4-Way Stretch Spandex

Finally — A Fly Mask That Stays Put on Escape Artists

If your horse is constantly rubbing off traditional fly masks or head-shaking from gnats crawling under loose edges, the Weaver Leather Covered Ear Fly Mask solves both problems with a pull-on, glove-like fit. Built from 4-way stretch spandex, this mask eliminates bulky Velcro closures and gaps where biting insects sneak through — giving horses with extreme sensitivity the gap-free protection they need to stay calm and focused in turnout.

The integrated fine mesh over eyes and ears blocks even the smallest midges while maintaining full visibility and hearing. Reinforced binding prevents the rubs and pressure points that cause your horse to target fence posts and trees. From our barn to yours — this is the mask that finally stays on through long summer days.
