Looking for suggestions for your fave fly mask. Broad faced, big boned WB (but not chunky, or boxy, just a big boy). The one I have he can rub off. I suspect it’s his game, but maybe if he’s uncomfortable, there is another one that he might leave on. Thanks.
These are my favorites:

They work well on my petite OTTB who is prone to very bad fly mask rubs and also my bigger WB. I’ve tried a variety but have just relinquished myself to the fact that these are the best for us. They also come in fun, bright prints which makes finding them in a pasture easier… not that this has ever happened to me, of course!
I like the stretchy ones

Do you use these for turn out? We tried a similar one and it ripped day 1 in T/O.
I don’t remember what brand mine is, I got it at Tractor Supply, but yes, it’s been on my mare for a couple weeks now.
I second the Crusader. My girl has two blue eyes and lives in a pipe stall field set up. She wears it 24/7 expect for riding and vet visits. Never had it rub her even if my family doesn’t groom her often when I’m out of town. I do have to replace them every 8 months to a year but she wears it 24/7 and her field mate isn’t gentle around them. I love the colors I can get a fun print or a solid color. I try to keep two on hand to switch them while they get cleaned.
