Do you dread insect season more for the anticipated condition of your horse’s fly sheet than for the bugs themselves? WeatherBeeta’s new Ripshield Fly Sheet will be you and your horse’s new best friend: The durable but lightweight ripstop weave mesh fabric helps contain tears and extend the life of the sheet.

“It’s so frustrating to find your horse’s fly sheet shredded in the middle of the season,” said Suzanne Reimer, WeatherBeeta’s Director of Marketing. “We created our new Ripshield Fly Sheets to help ensure a longer life and minimize the inevitable tears when horses are turned out in a group.”

Great features include traditional shoulder gussets for freedom of movement, twin front chest buckles for a secure fit and removable web leg straps. The oversized full wrap tail flap and removable belly wrap offer extra coverage, and the shoulder, tail flap and neck cover are lined to prevent rubs.

Available in Detach-a-Neck, Standard Neck and Pony Standard Neck styles, Ripshield Fly Sheets provide up to 20% UV block.

Ripshield Plus Fly Sheets are available in sizes 66–84 (3-inch increments) in White/Navy/Gray. The Detach-a-Neck retails for $124.99; Standard Neck is $114.99. The Ripshield Pony Standard Neck comes in sizes 48–66 in Rainbow and retails for $99.99.
