Rambo Protector Fly Sheet (No Fill + Hood)

The Ultimate Performer in Fly Protection.

The Rambo Protector Fly Sheet is loved all around the world for a reason. Made from Horseware's unique patented and durable fabric that is super soft and comfortable, your horse will graze in comfort when wearing the Rambo Protector. This fly sheet offers full UV protection and is designed to last many seasons.

This is one of the few fly sheets that will last several years given normal usage, as the fabric is truly remarkable. It's patented design prevents it from ripping when snagged, and it even "self-repairs." The fabric just works itself back into place (which you can see in the video above).

A detachable hood is included, designed with an extended hood shape. This close contact hood with improved fit and extended chest coverage offers maximum protection against flies and insects. Horseware's V-Front Closure allows your horse to graze comfortably, removing pressure and preventing shoulder rubs.

Compatible with our Horseware's Waterproof Fly Sheet Liner, so come rain or shine, your best friend is covered.

* Fly mask and fly boots (pictured) are sold separately.

Sizing Blankets & Sheets

Using a soft measuring tape, measure from A (the center point of the chest), across the widest point of the shoulder and to B (the center point of your horse’s rear, under the tail). Ensure your measuring tape is level and taut, which is easiest with 2 people. The number of inches is your horse’s "true size." Learn more about properly sizing your horse here.

Fit

Our Advice: This product fits TRUE TO SIZE. You should rely on your horse's "true size" (as measured above). If between sizes we recommend sizing up.

Some brands run a little large or small, so we recommend checking out our numerous product reviews for more advice. Bear in mind that every horse is different and that your measurement is a guide only. We carry many different styles to suit all shapes and sizes. Please contact us if you do have any questions about size or fit. We’re always happy to help!

Use

This is a FLY SHEET, intended to protect your horse from flies/insects on warm days while offering UV protection and breathability.

Turnouts, blankets & sheets serve a variety of functions. Turnouts act as a waterproof insulator layer, helping to maintain condition in cold weather. Stable blankets are not waterproof and simply provide insulation for warmth. Other sheets (fly, cooler, competition, scrim, etc.) excel at a number of other functions.

Please be aware that conditions may vary in a short time span, and always ensure your horse is comfortable under the current conditions. Learn more about product use here.

We recommend having your sheets PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED.
