The Winderen Fly-Proof mesh horse rug is our answer to traditional fly rugs. In this rug, we have used flexible 3D mesh with a high air permeability factor, which guarantees even better protection for your horse against pesky insects and UV light.

Full insect protection without overheating

The Winderen Fly-Proof rug is made of 3D spacer mesh, which not only provides excellent ventilation but also effective insect protection thanks to its dense structure.

This material has a high air permeability factor, allowing horses to enjoy wearing it comfortably even on warm days. Additionally, it acts as a natural barrier, filtering UV rays and protecting the horse’s delicate skin from the harmful effects of intense sun exposure.

Furthermore, the spacer mesh minimizes the risk of moisture buildup, keeping the Fly-Proof rug dry for longer periods of use.

Thanks to the combination of these features, the Fly-Proof rug is the perfect choice for horse owners who want to ensure the best comfort for their horses during daily turnout.

We have also made it possible to purchase a zippered mesh hood for the Winderen Fly-Proof rug, providing the highest level of insect protection. This type of closure ensures exceptional tightness and reduces the risk of insects getting through gaps in the material.

It’s the ideal solution for horses needing an additional protective layer in the sensitive neck area.

Secure fastening

You can easily fasten this rug using an adjustable quick-release buckle located on the chest. This mechanism is simple for humans to operate, yet impossible for the horse to unfasten on its own.

Full freedom of movement

In the Fly-Proof mesh rug, we have used slightly elastic material that does not restrict the horse’s movements during activity. Moreover, we have equipped this rug with three elastic belly straps that further stabilize it on the horse’s body.

The result? Your horse feels comfortable and free whether calmly grazing in the sun or galloping around the paddock.
