I have one of the roma ones, its lycra and a fine mesh so really light on my little mares head, and cos its lycra it seals itself so no flys can get into it and get trapped. and it comes in purple ;D

and it comes in purple ;D LOL....and that is the most important thing ;D Right I have been out and bought 2 equi......brium?  The extra small seems to fit the shetty fabulously I got him the one with the ears, although could have done with more of the soft part of the velcro higher up so can get the strap a bit tighter fit! Big horse has got the XL ( lol I go from one end of the scale to the other lol)  again with the ears, could do with more velcro to get the straps snug , he hates the nose piece on it but this is removeable, i choose to leave it on as he has a white nose and these masks block out upto 80% of the suns rays. ;D So up to now Im really pleased with these 2 ;D I have also got a little Roma one which I got free with a rug last year for a different pony......this does fit present little pony very well except the ears are soooooo long he looks like a mini donkey ;D x x x x |

The big ones on our yard have the equilibrum ones and fit them really well, but are quite heavy for little heads I think... and they only came in black and red or white! lol xx
Glad you got sorted, cant beleive no one else replied!

The flys have just been horrible this year and horses/ponies that only go out for a few hours are even coming in with their eyes streaming because of the flys  Few more of the liveries have been out and bought the Equilibrum ones......I have also just bought a william funnel one off Ebay as a spare for the big horse, might try this one on him today to see how that one fairs! ;D x x x x |

Cashel Crusader.
It is brilliant, the only fly mask that has small enough sizes for my welsh section A, it has a nice long nose piece, and a hole for the forelock, and nice little ear bits.
This is an old thread, but thought I would add it for any future readers, especially as summer is hopefully on the way!
