Cashel Crusader Horse Fly Mask with Long Nose, Grey, Horse

I bought this fly mask about a month ago to protect my pink nosed paint from sunburn. So far, its been a very satisfactory purchase. He is on pasture board, so he is turned out 24/7, and he has worn this fly mask for about a month. It has yet to tear, and he is very hard on it. I ordered the horse size, and it fits him perfectly. Charlie has a very large head, so I considered going one size up, but there was no need. I would say that this fly mask runs large for sure. In most halters I cant get a horse size, so I was pleasantly surprised when this fly mask fit so nicely. Very satisfied.

This fly mask was delivered May 6. Yesterday, May 26 the nose stitching was unraveled and the loose trim wrapped under my gelding’s chin. That is a space of exactly 20 days. I’m being generous with that timeframe. It took me a few days after delivery to swap it out for his old mask. So, he wore it for less than 20 days and the nose piece was shredded. Very disappointing, because the flies are SO BAD in my area right now. Like a sucker, I have ordered another one in hopes that it was a fluke. Because the flies are SO BAD. I will update this post once the new one comes.

Great product

He didnt mind the mask with the long nose while grazing or drinking water. It does protect his face and muzzle from sunburn! Well worth it!

This is the 3rd horse mask Ive ordered from this company over the years, and they work great. I choose the one without the ears because it makes it less likely for another horse to pull it off. They last a long time (the last one I had lasted for 2 summer seasons) and I love the fact that it has a long nose piece because my horse has a light colored nose and mouth, protecting it from the sun.

Nice quality mask, though it seems to run big. My AQH mare has a rather large head, and the regular horse size is a bit big. It still works, and hopefully will stay on. It covers her white, sunburn-prone nose completely, and thats important. Happy with my purchase.

No more sunburned noses
