Comments:This mask is awesome they do run a little big, BUT no to big and LOVE they way they stay clear away from the eyes, ordered 2 and just ordered 5 more, they are WELL WORTH THE MONEY, and I love Shires products

Comments: This mask runs very large. I ordered a cob size for my very petite mare and it was way too big for her. I decided to try it on my big mare (16-3hh 1200lbs) and it fits her perfectly. The quality of the mask is good and seems to be well made. The one con that I found, is that the mesh covering the eye area tends to collapse in on the eyes and I don't like that. If this did not happen, it would be a great mask.

Comments: Have purchased many different fly masks over the years, but lately my pony is preferring this one. Earless may seem like an odd choice, but no ears seem more durable and stays on more reliably in turnout. This fly mask is nicely padded as well and has nice structure, so it does not get in their eyes.

Comments: This fly mask is AWESOME for horses with sensitive eyes and/or skin. It's lifted off at the brow and nose by a thick, plush layer, so there's less interference with eyes. We live in the super hot Coachella Valley and help run a horse rescue. Having the open poll is great for our rescues in the intense summer heat. Every edge is soft. Size-wise, a full means FULL. GREAT for warmbloods, but for horses with smaller heads like average QHs and Arabians, it's just too big; go with cob size masks for them.

Comments: I loved the teal color of this mask and it appeared to be a good fit on my gelding. However, the fleece collects burrs, foxtails, and debris like crazy so I wouldn't recommend it for pasture turn out. Maybe it would work well for stalled horses. My picky gelding removed it in less than 24 hours.
