Weaver Leather Fly Mask with Nose & Ear Cover — Medium

Stop Sunburn and Face Rubbing with Full-Coverage Fly Protection

Horses with white blazes and pink muzzles need more than standard mesh — they need a barrier against UV damage and biting insects that target sensitive skin. This Weaver Leather fly mask delivers nose and ear coverage engineered by horseman Brett Mills, combining breathable gray mesh with a patent-pending Xtended Life closure system that lets you replace worn Velcro instead of tossing the whole mask.

The medium size fits standard horses (800–1,100 lbs) with a contoured throat latch design that keeps gnats from crawling underneath. Polar fleece edging eliminates painful rubbing on facial bones, while reflective piping over the nose makes late-evening horse checks easier. The innovative closure strap doubles as a fly spray patch — soak it with repellent for an extra chemical barrier without applying spray directly to your horse's face.

Why Riders Choose the Weaver Leather Nose & Ear Fly Mask

• Replaceable closure system saves money — Patent-pending Xtended Life design lets you swap in a new Velcro strap when the original wears out, extending the mask's working life by seasons.
• Full nose and ear coverage protects pink skin — Integrated coverage shields horses prone to sunburn and solar dermatitis without interfering with grazing or drinking.
• Fly spray patch built into the closure — Absorbent strap material holds repellent for extended protection around the head and neck, keeping chemicals off sensitive facial skin.
• Reflective piping for low-light safety — High-visibility accents over the nose make it easy to spot your horse in the pasture during dawn or dusk checks.
• Anti-rub polar fleece edging — Plush trim along all seams prevents hair loss and irritation on cheekbones and throatlatch while ensuring a secure, insect-proof seal.
• Breathable mesh keeps horses cool — Lightweight construction allows maximum airflow even during high-heat summer turnout.

Best For

Owners of horses with white facial markings or sensitive skin looking for full-face sun and insect protection that lasts multiple seasons.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this mask fit my average-sized Quarter Horse or Thoroughbred?

Yes, the Medium size is calibrated for horses in the 800–1,100 lbs range. The contoured neck and throat latch design ensure a secure fit that prevents gnats and midges from crawling underneath. If your horse has an especially large or small head for their weight, measure from cheekbone to cheekbone for the best fit confirmation.

Q: Does the nose cover interfere with grazing or drinking?

Not at all. The nose coverage is strategically tapered to end just above the nostrils, providing maximum sun protection for the muzzle without obstructing your horse's ability to eat, drink, or breathe freely. Most horses adjust to the coverage within a few hours of first turnout.

Q: How does the replaceable closure system work?

The Xtended Life system uses a patent-pending strap design that attaches to the mask body with durable hardware. When the Velcro gets dirty or loses its grip, you order a replacement strap instead of replacing the entire mask — saving you money and reducing waste. It's a simple swap that takes less than a minute.
