It is best for owners who need all-day field protection with genuine breathability, and it suits horses in daily turnout from late spring through to autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEngineered in durable nylon and monofilament polyester, the mesh holds its structure and shapes around the horse's body instead of clinging to the coat, which keeps air moving and helps keep biting flies off the skin. The fabric naturally repels water and encourages rapid drying, so a passing shower does not leave the rug heavy or sodden.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRipshield mesh outer\u003c\/strong\u003e engineered in durable nylon and monofilament polyester\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStructured yet lightweight\u003c\/strong\u003e build that shapes around the body for a technical fly defence\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHighly breathable\u003c\/strong\u003e, naturally water-repelling and quick to dry\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended, shaped belly flap\u003c\/strong\u003e for maximum underside coverage\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree-strap belly closure\u003c\/strong\u003e with a detachable central strap that helps the rug self-right\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrigger clip front fastening\u003c\/strong\u003e for fast, fuss-free rug changes at the gate\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAntibacterial and anti-static lining\u003c\/strong\u003e for all-day comfort next to the coat\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePatented two-part skirt\u003c\/strong\u003e that breaks the hemline, relieves tension and allows a greater range of movement\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKudos\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFly rug \/ summer turnout rug\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOuter Fabric\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRipshield mesh - nylon and monofilament polyester\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLining\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAntibacterial and anti-static\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFront Fastening\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTrigger clips\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBelly Coverage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtended shaped belly flap with three-strap closure, detachable central strap\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSkirt Design\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePatented two-part skirt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWater Resistance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNaturally water-repelling, rapid drying\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHorses, ponies, cobs and warmbloods in field turnout\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChina\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e \u003cp\u003eBrowse more summer protection in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fly-rugs\"\u003efly rugs collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eMeasure your horse from the centre of the chest, along the body, to the point of the buttock and select the nearest rug size.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFold the rug in half, lay it over the withers and unfold it back along the body so the hemline sits evenly.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFasten the trigger clips at the chest first so the rug is secure before you move to the straps.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFasten the three belly straps, leaving roughly a hand's width of clearance so the horse can move and graze freely.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdjust the extended belly flap and check the two-part skirt is sitting flat over the hindquarters.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCheck the fit, straps and clips daily while the horse is turned out, and remove the rug regularly to groom and inspect the coat.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ol\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size Kudos AeroGuard Fly Rug should I order?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeasure from the centre of the chest, along the length of the body, to the point of the buttock and match that measurement to the nearest size.
