Kensington’s brilliant innovation in fly masks: it offers 90% UV protection – ideal for horses with uveitis, sun-sensitive patches, etc. It has a soft lining along the inner edge and darts to keep it clear of the eyes, and also doubles as a headcollar so you can more easily catch your horse in the field. A double-layer velcro attachment also makes it much harder to get off!
This mask is also available in two other versions: with ears, and with ears and a removable nose – see see the full range here. We also supply matching Kensington lead ropes for use with the catch mask feature – see “You may also like” below.
Why we chose it:
- Ultra UV protective: Solar Screen textilene fabric designed to block over 90% of harmful UV rays protecting even the most sensitive of eyes
- Lead rope attachment point: Doubles as a headcollar for catching in the field, with a lead-rope attachment slot in the double-velcro fastener under the chin (not recommended for extended leading)
- Bridle can be fitted on top: Streamlined fit allows a bridle to be fitted over for horses that cannot risk any sun exposure
- Designed for comfort: Soft lining on the interior trim and darts over the eyes to prevent rubbing and irritations. Forelock opening.
- 78% air permeability: Keeps your horse cool with non-heat transferring fabric
“This is a well-fitting, easy to use fly mask which features a nice fluffy edge for comfort. The protection is excellent – the flies stayed away – and the quality seems good…”
