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

This mask keeps our horse from sunburning.

This mask doesnt last long and the material wore the hair off my horses face

Bottom line: A little long on my very average sized horse. Not bad at all tho. After about three months the mesh has started to separate from the nose seam but she wears it 24/7 except when being ridden. Grazing about half of that time. So lots of wear. For the price, it’s been great. No other visible wear other than the nose area. Will buy again next summer. A very great buy for the price. I bought this for my painted Bavarian WB. She’s got a pink nose and is turned out from about 3pm until the morning so sun burn on her nose is a concern. Last year she had a normal fly mask that didn’t extend to the nose and I was constantly fighting sweat and grazing to keep a cream on her pink nose. This year we have no sunburn and no icky creams! This mask solved our problems. I’ve had it about 3 months now and the mesh is starting to come apart at the nose seam. She is not hard on masks, halters, etc but like I said, it is a little long for her face and she grazes on pasture 7 days a week and the only time she’s not wearing it in the summer is when we ride. So, it’s getting a lot of wear. Over all, will probably buy again next summer!

This fit my horse perfectly except around the nose. The adjustment Velcro needs some help to prevent the webbing from fraying or tearing at seam when the poor fit adjustment let’s the horse rub it off. My horse is a Medicine Hat tobiano saddle horse with a slim nose. The long nose horse size fit perfectly except around the nose and the adjustment Velcro wasn’t adequate for a fit that wouldn’t allow her to rub the whole thing off. After some fiddling, we rigged it to be tighter and she didn’t rub it off again(yet). I noticed a slight fraying at seam on nose piece from that one rub-off. Maybe greater care could be taken at seams. Horses WILL be horses!

I normally use the crusader long nose flymask and have for years. Always my go to as they are the most sturdy. But was sent the quiet ride flymask instead which if I even attempted to make it work my horse would shred it within a day... so, cant give 5 stars. But I do like this brand as they last the longest when the correct one is sent.

This mask does a good job of protecting my horses pink nose from the harsh summer sun. But it is not very durable. It already needs to be replaced after one month. There is a large hole in the eye area and the knit fabric above his eyes has several small holes. I certainly expected this mask to last longer than it has.

The nose was too long but otherwise fit great. A good suggestion would be able to adjust the nose part

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.

Actually, I wasnt too pleased as I ordered a horse size. The box I received said size: horse. When I put it on my horse, it was way too small. It didnt come close to covering his nose. When I looked at the tag on the mask itself, it said size: Arabian Horse.

I bought this long nose fly mask for Mr Black, my son’s horse. My son says it’s a nice fly mask. Mr Black wears it without complaining. Mr Black has a big head and this mask is a good fit.
