The only fly rug your heavy horse needs for full summer protection - now with a belly flap for added coverage and fly defence.
Merging science with smart design, this zebra fly rug with belly flap for heavy horses is based on breakthrough studies by Susanne Åkesson and Tim Caro. The bold black-and-white zebra pattern visually confuses insects, making it harder for them to land and bite, a proven, natural defence against flies, midges, and biting insects. Backed by science and trusted by owners of heavy breeds.
Crafted from high-quality, lightweight, breathable mesh, this durable rug keeps your horse cool and protected, even in warmer weather. It features a fixed integrated neck cover for full head-to-tail protection, plus a full belly flap that shields the underside, a key landing zone for flies, while preventing irritation and bites.
For a customisable and secure fit, it includes:
- Twin chest buckles with adjustable trigger clips
- Removable, adjustable leg straps
- A neck cover extension to maintain full coverage while grazing
- Antibacterial and antistatic lining over the mane, chest, shoulders, back, and tail flap
- An extra-large tail flap to protect broader, apple-bottom builds
The addition of the belly flap ensures more complete fly protection without sacrificing airflow or comfort. All our heavy horse fly rugs offer some UV protection, and this version delivers full-coverage summer defence designed specifically for broad-chested, deep-barrelled heavy horses and ponies.
This rug is part of our broad fit collection, tailored to suit Traditional Cobs, Shires, Clydesdales, Percherons, and other muscular breeds. No more tight fits or restrictive designs, just reliable comfort, maximum freedom of movement, and all-over summer protection for your heavy horse.
