Ride with Confidence and 360° Visibility

When you're out on the road or navigating trails during hunting season, being seen isn't just a preference—it's a safety essential. The Shires Equi-Flector® Mesh Exercise Sheet in Blaze Orange is designed to give you peace of mind by ensuring you and your horse stand out to motorists and hunters alike from every angle. It’s the ultimate safety layer for the rider who doesn't let low light or busy roads get in the way of a good ride.

Unlike heavy fleece sheets that can cause your horse to lather up, this mesh version is built for the long haul in warmer weather. It provides that critical high-visibility "pop" without adding extra heat, making it the perfect companion for summer schooling, road hacking, or brisk morning rides when airflow is just as important as safety.

Why We Love the Equi-Flector® Mesh Sheet

• 360° High-Visibility Safety. The vibrant Blaze Orange fabric is paired with reflective strips and a large rear warning print, ensuring you’re visible to traffic even in low-light or foggy conditions.
• Maximum Airflow Design. Made from 100% breathable polyester mesh, this sheet allows heat to escape during high-intensity work, preventing your horse from overheating.
• Secure, Non-Slip Fit. Featuring a continental pattern with touch-close wither fastenings and girth guides, the sheet stays put without flapping, even when the wind picks up.
• Unrestricted Leg Contact. Designed to wrap around your saddle rather than under it, this sheet allows you to maintain a close feel with your horse while providing full hindquarter coverage.
• Trail-Ready Stability. The included fillet string keeps the back end secure, making it a reliable choice for navigating uneven terrain or open fields.

Best For

Safety-conscious trail riders and road hackers looking for maximum visibility without the added weight or heat of a traditional exercise rug.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I choose the right size for my horse?

Exercise sheets are sized by the back length rather than the standard chest-to-tail measurement. Measure your horse from the wither to the base of the tail in inches. Generally, a 48" fits horses in 5'3"–5'6" rugs, a 54" fits 6'0" rugs, and a 60" fits 6'6"–6'9" rugs.

Q: Can I use the Shires Equi-Flector® Mesh Exercise Sheet in the summer?

Yes! This sheet is specifically designed for summer and high-intensity work. The 100% polyester mesh is highly breathable, allowing for maximum airflow so your horse stays cool while remaining visible.

Q: Is this sheet suitable for use during hunting season?

Absolutely. The Blaze Orange color is a standard safety choice for riders in wooded areas during hunting season to ensure you are easily distinguished from wildlife.
