The Weaver Leather White Fly Sheet uses the natural reflective properties of white mesh to bounce solar heat away from the body while creating a physical barrier against mosquitoes, horse flies, and the midges that cause Sweet Itch. This is the sheet we reach for when UV protection and cooling matter most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt with strategically placed shoulder gussets that sit directly on the point of the shoulder, this sheet moves with your horse rather than against them — whether they're grazing or galloping. The open-weave mesh keeps air flowing even on humid afternoons, so your horse stays dry and comfortable from the pasture to the show grounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Riders Choose the Weaver White Fly Sheet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum UV reflection and heat reduction\u003c\/strong\u003e — Bright white mesh blocks harmful rays and prevents sun bleaching on dark coats while keeping pink-skinned horses safe from painful sunburns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-flow breathability for all-day comfort\u003c\/strong\u003e — Open-weave construction allows constant airflow, keeping your horse dry and cool even during humid summer afternoons.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull range of motion without rubbing\u003c\/strong\u003e — Shoulder gussets positioned at the natural pivot point eliminate binding and mane loss common with poorly designed sheets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecure fit that stays centered\u003c\/strong\u003e — Twin-buckle chest closures and adjustable belly straps keep the sheet in place during pasture play without shifting or twisting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical shield against biting insects\u003c\/strong\u003e — Provides relief from horse flies, mosquitoes, and no-see-ums, giving sensitive horses protection during peak fly hours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResearch-backed color choice\u003c\/strong\u003e — Studies suggest biting flies like Tabanids are less attracted to white surfaces than darker colors or patterns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBest For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHorse owners with dark-coated or pink-skinned horses\u003c\/strong\u003e looking for \u003cstrong\u003emaximum UV protection and insect defense during summer turnout\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: How do I measure my horse for the right size fly sheet?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure from the center of the chest, around the widest part of the shoulder, to the center of the tail. If your horse falls between sizes, we recommend sizing up to prevent tightness across the chest and withers. Once the Weaver Leather White Fly Sheet is buckled, you should be able to slide two fingers easily under the neck opening at the withers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Why is white mesh better than a patterned or dark-colored fly sheet?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite is technically superior for heat management because it reflects the full spectrum of solar radiation instead of absorbing it. Research also suggests that certain biting flies, particularly Tabanids, are less attracted to white surfaces than darker colors. This makes white the best choice for both cooling and insect protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Will this sheet rub my horse's mane or withers?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen properly fitted, the sheet should have enough clearance at the withers to prevent rubbing. You should be able to slide two fingers under the neck opening when buckled. The strategically placed shoulder gussets also reduce friction at the point of the shoulder, a common problem area for mane loss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Can I use this sheet in the pasture overnight?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the Weaver Leather White Fly Sheet is designed for turnout use with secure twin-buckle chest closures and adjustable belly straps that keep it centered even during active pasture play. Just check the fit regularly to ensure it hasn't shifted, especially in mixed herds where horses may play rough.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weaver Leather","offers":[{"title":"68","offer_id":47631615656157,"sku":"35-1525-68","price":82.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"70","offer_id":47631615688925,"sku":"35-1525-70","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"72","offer_id":47631615721693,"sku":"35-1525-72","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"74","offer_id":47631615754461,"sku":"35-1525-74","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"76","offer_id":47631615787229,"sku":"35-1525-76","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"78","offer_id":47631615819997,"sku":"35-1525-78","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"80","offer_id":47631615852765,"sku":"35-1525-80","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"82","offer_id":47631615885533,"sku":"35-1525-82","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"84","offer_id":47631615918301,"sku":"35-1525-84","price":82.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/weaver-leather-white-horse-fly-sheet-breathable-mesh-for-pasture-protection-multiple-sizes-35-1525-68.webp?v=1773812945","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/fly-sheet-white","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
