WE TESTED...
Your horse’s down time during the summer months may quickly turn sour if he’s invaded upon by pesky flies and insects all the time. But rather than giving up and confining him to barracks, arming him with added protection’s the next best thing.
A good-quality fly rug will help keep your horse bug-free over the warmer months – but in order for it to pass as a viable wardrobe essential, it’ll need to keep him cool and comfortable, while also being the perfect fit. On your hunt, consider shape, material and whether it offers any bonus features, such as UV protection and all-important belly coverage. Not sure where to start? We’ve put a selection to the test to help you on your search.
