Introduction to Fly Protection: Why Your Horse Needs It
Welcome to another insightful review from Aaron Englander at Just Horse Riders. Today, we dive deep into why protecting your horse from flies isn't just about comfort—it's about health. The Shires Fine Mesh Earless Fly Mask is our highlight today, and for good reason. As Aaron says, "Let's have a look at this essential piece of equestrian gear that keeps your equine friends happy and healthy."
What Makes the Shires Fine Mesh Earless Fly Mask a Must-Have?
"The first thing you’ll notice," Aaron begins as he unpacks the product, "is the reusable box—handy for end-of-season storage." Not only is it practical, but it's also a nod to sustainability. "Really nice and easy to slide out," he notes, showcasing how user-friendly this product is right from the start. Convenience is key, especially when dealing with the wellbeing of animals that might not always cooperate.
Key Features Right Out of the Box
Aaron highlights that this is the "earless version" of the fly mask, which is great for horses that are sensitive about their ears. "They do loads of different combinations. If this one doesn’t suit you, I’m sure they’ll have one that will," he assures. By offering variety, Shires caters to the unique needs of different horses. The diverse product line ensures that every owner can find what they need.
In his review, Aaron explains the main benefits of the mask: "This mesh on the main part of the mask will protect your horse from midges and the smallest of flies but also it has a 3D eye visor which means it’s going to stay off your horse's eyeballs and allow it to still see in the field." The protection against tiny pests and clear visibility it provides are crucial for your horse's comfort and health. "You can still see me through it; it's fine, it’s 4K," he jokes, highlighting the fine mesh’s quality and functionality.
Advanced Design and Comfort Features
Continuing with his detailed exploration, Aaron points out the advanced design features that set the Shires Fine Mesh Earless Fly Mask apart. "You’ve got your stitching here that’s going to make the mask actually stand off your horse’s eyeballs," he explains. This thoughtful 3D design prevents the mesh from irritating the sensitive eye area while ensuring full visibility and protection from sunlight and insects.
Designed for Ultimate Protection and Comfort
The mask not only focuses on protection but also prioritizes comfort, which is evident from its anti-rub binding. "Anywhere that can sort of rub on your horse’s face, it’s got a nice soft fleece to prevent that," Aaron illustrates. This detail is crucial as it helps prevent any potential irritation that could distress the horse, making it ideal for prolonged use during those long summer days.
Easy to Use and Durable
"To put on, nice and easy again, you’ve got your head strap on the top there and you’ve just got your velcro straps there, nice and easy to put on," says Aaron. The simplicity of the design is a boon for horse owners, especially when dealing with restless animals. Durability is another key feature, as Aaron mentions, "It’s not going to be the end of the world if and when your horse loses it in the field." This mask is built to withstand the rigors of field use, reassuring owners of its longevity and value.
Additional Benefits: UV Protection and Lightweight Design
The Shires mask offers more than just fly protection. Aaron highlights its UV protective capabilities: "This mask actually offers over 60% UV protection for your horse when it’s a sunny day," he notes. The importance of UV protection cannot be overstated, as it helps diminish the risk of sunburn and sun bleaching, which is particularly beneficial during the peak of summer. Moreover, its lightweight and breathable fabric ensures that your horse won't get too hot and bothered, even in warmer weather.
