Product Information
Full details
The HyVIZ Reflective Tail Band is an essential safety accessory for equestrians who ride on roads or in dim environments, offering a simple way to increase visibility to other motorists. Designed for all horse breeds and sizes, this band provides a high-visibility, reflective surface that catches light effectively during evening or low-light hacks; however, users should ensure it is fastened securely to prevent slippage during active movement.

FAQs
Will this fit a pony and a large horse?
Yes, the HyVIZ Reflective Tail Band is designed as a one-size-fits-all product with adjustable straps to suit various equine sizes.
Can this be worn in the rain?
Yes, the materials are designed to be durable for year-round use; however, ensure you dry it off after a wet ride to keep the fasteners in good condition.
Is the reflective material effective from the side?
While primarily focused on rear-facing visibility, the band's wrap-around nature provides some visibility from the sides as well.
How do I clean it if it gets muddy?
Use a soft sponge and clean, lukewarm water to wipe down the reflective strip. Allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
Does it cause discomfort to the horse?
When adjusted correctly, the band is lightweight and should not cause any discomfort. Ensure it is not fastened too tightly to avoid restricting blood flow.
Troubleshooting
The tail band slips down during a ride.
Ensure the band is positioned high enough at the dock of the tail and tighten the fasteners slightly to accommodate the horse's movement.
The band does not seem bright in low light.
Check the surface for mud or grime buildup, as the reflective properties rely on a clean surface to bounce light back effectively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, simply wrap the band around the top of the horse's tail and secure the fasteners to a snug, yet comfortable tension. It is compatible with almost all tail structures and can be used over or under tail bandages if preferred. For care, wipe the reflective surface clean with a damp cloth after rides to maintain its reflectivity. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the reflective coating over time. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to preserve the integrity of the fastenings.
