FAQs

Is this mask machine washable?

We recommend hand washing in cool, mild soapy water to maintain the structure of the mesh and the integrity of the faux fur.

Why is the earless design better?

It is perfect for horses that are ear-shy or sensitive to having headwear over their ears, providing relief while still protecting the face.

Does the mesh block UV rays?

Yes, the mesh provides essential UV protection to help shield the sensitive skin around the eyes from sun damage.

How do I choose the right size?

The Hy Armoured Protect range is available in sizes including Small Pony, Pony, Cob, Full, and X Full. Choose based on your horse's standard head size.

Can my horse wear this for 24-hour turnout?

The bamboo lining is designed for comfort, but it is recommended to check the mask daily for debris and ensure the fit is not causing rubs.

Troubleshooting

Mask keeps shifting or slipping

Adjust the double-sided touch tape for a firmer, more secure fit under the jaw.

Mesh is sagging towards the eyes

Check the positioning of the mask and ensure the darts are correctly aligned; if the mesh is permanently misshapen, the mask may need replacement.

Horse is showing signs of rubbing

Verify that the fleece edging and faux fur panel are clean of dirt and properly aligned with the horse's facial contours.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Soft bamboo lining prevents skin irritation
  • Sturdy darts keep mesh away from eyes
  • Luxurious faux fur trim adds comfort
  • Secure double-sided touch tape fastenings
  • Lightweight and breathable material

Cons

  • Offers no protection for the ears
  • Only covers the face area, not the entire head
  • May require regular cleaning to maintain mesh visibility

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, position the mask so the faux fur panel rests comfortably on the brow, avoiding the eyes. Secure the touch tape fastenings snugly under the jaw to ensure it stays in place during turnout without being too tight. To care for the mask, hand wash in cool water with mild soap regularly to clear debris from the mesh, ensuring clear vision for your horse. Allow the mask to air dry completely before reapplying. Avoid storing in direct, harsh sunlight when not in use to extend the lifespan of the material.
