Description
Waldhausen Hi-Viz Summer Sheet - Light-Weight Reflective Mesh Sheet
The Waldhausen Hi-Viz Summer Sheet is a light-weight meshed horse sheet made from highly reflecting material with a silver reflecting stripe. It is best for riders and yard owners who want a cool, airy summer sheet that also helps a horse be seen clearly in dull light, early mornings and winter afternoons.
Made from 100% polyester and supplied in a universal size, the sheet includes a saddle gap so it can be worn with a saddle in place, plus a tail cord to help hold the back of the sheet steady. It suits stable use, travelling, show days and ridden work where visibility matters.

How to Use
- Measure your horse from the centre of the chest to the point of the buttock and compare with the sheet so you know how much coverage to expect.
- Fold the sheet, place it over the withers and unfold it back along the body rather than dragging it forwards.
- Fasten the front, then any body fastenings, keeping the sheet straight and clear of the withers.
- Pass the tail cord under the tail and adjust so it sits comfortably without pulling.
- If riding, position the saddle gap over the saddle area and check nothing is caught beneath the girth or numnah.
- Walk the horse forward a few steps and re-check the fit, then shake out and dry the sheet after use.

FAQ
Is this sheet warm enough for turnout in cold weather?
No. It is a light-weight mesh summer sheet with no filling, so it is intended for warm conditions, stable use, travelling and visibility rather than warmth.
Can it be used while riding?
Yes. The sheet has a saddle gap so it can be worn with a saddle in place, which is useful for hacking in dull light or at either end of the day.
What size is it?
The sheet is supplied in a universal size. Measure your horse from the centre of the chest to the point of the buttock and compare this with the sheet before use so you know the coverage you will get on a pony, cob or larger horse.
What is it made from?
The sheet is made from 100% polyester in a light-weight mesh, with a silver reflecting stripe.
How do I clean it?
Shake out dust and loose hair, sponge off marks and allow the sheet to dry fully before storing it in a dry place away from direct sunlight.
Does a hi-viz sheet replace rider hi-viz clothing?
No. It improves how visible the horse is, but you should still wear your usual hi-viz clothing and use lights where needed.
