Ideal for horses that like their ears free but are particularly bothered by small flies and midges, this fine mesh mask keeps the whole face covered. Comfortable fleece padding along the seams achieves a close fit for comfort and to avoid gaps. Elasticated at the poll for improved fit. Flexible and strong, fully breathable and adjustable safety fastenings. UV protection - the mesh over the eyes (and nose) provides 60 % UV protection, helping to diminish the risk of sun burn and sun bleaching. Effectiveness may diminish over time.
