Designed for superior visibility, incredible eye clearance and protection around the eyes, and of course the utmost comfort for your horse to wear daily. The LE Outback Fly Mask will become your horse's go-to fly veil for fly protection. 

Utilising a fine mesh designed for protection even against mosquitoes, and with 60% UV protection, the Outback allows supreme visibility while helping prevent flies and biting insects landing on your horse's face and eyes. 

Beautifully lightweight, with a flexible mesh and airmesh build that upholds the structure to help prevent the mesh being pushed in to the horse's eyes. Soft and comfortable fleece edging in all the right places to ensure this is one fly mask your horse will enjoy wearing.

  • Superior eye clearance and visibility with our unique build.
  • Fine mesh for super visibility, with 60% uv protection.
  • Airmesh sides with two velcro straps to allow a close, comfortable fit while still maintaining freedom to graze and, importantly, breathability. 
  • Polycotton top piece with ear holes, ensures comfort and support 
  • Soft, comfortable fleece anywhere there is an edge to allow all day wear

A size guide is just a guide. We'd love to be exact for you however head conformation varies greatly between horses of the same height. Measuring around the throatlatch area of your horse's head will give best approximate guide to the size you should choose. Each mask will adjust to be a bit smaller and also a bit larger than the guide size with the velcro straps.

XXS - for the little ponies, roughly 9hh to 12hh

XS - for roughly 11hh to 13.2hh

Small - for large ponies with broad faces, as a rough guide 13.3hh to 14.3hh. Or very fine 15hh.

Medium - for small horses, cob types, as a rough guide 15hh-15.3hh, or also taller horses with fine heads. 

Large - for horses that typically wear full size or are on the larger side of full size. Or very broad-faced horses that are under 16hh. 

XL - for percheron, shire/clydie types. 

All measurements are taken in centimetres. Please measure your horse prior to purchasing to decide which size is most suitable.If you are unsure which size to purchase don’t hesitate to reach out! 


Wash in max 30 degrees, with a gentle detergent or wool wash, drip dry in the shade and re-shape while damp. Take care to close velcro straps when not in use and when in wash as airmesh while perfect for the purposes of a comfortable close fit with excellent breathability, is susceptible to being caught by the velcro and getting a little scruffy (which can be tidied up with a razor or pumice stone if it occurs).

Great design and well fitting fly veil that keeps the flies off and the mesh away from his eyes.

For two horses who have NEVER worn a fly veil, they were remarkably calm when these were put on. Photo is of Mr D'Arcy having his feet done, looking very stylish in his new fly veil. Perfect fit around the ears and under the jaw, and I love how the face cover is clear of their eyes! Now to find a way to encourage the boys to leave them on!!!!!!!!

Have never been able to fit a mask to my big boofhead. Masks would last about 5 minutes as he hated them. Whilst I occasionally find it in the dirt (and still undamaged) most days he leaves it on. Super well constructed with the eye clearance we need.

Quality product that fits like it was tailor made. Would have no hesitation in recommending.

This is my first time using one of these fly masks on my mare. I’ve had trouble with other ones rubbing but this one has been really good so far!

Customer photo review of LE Outback Flymask Original

Nice and soft with plenty of eye clearance which is nice but a little too big around the jowl nose area. If I was to get the next size down then I wouldn't have the eye clearance that I have with the large.

Absolutely love our new fly mask. His name is Bluejay and I’ve nick named him “The Beekeeper” when he wears his mask. Sits great on his head and he still has good vision . I’ve recommended it to a few horsey friends .

I purchased one of the these for my boy after looking at many different fly masks. This one stood out that it could be left on day and night. It fits perfectly, is snug, off the eyes and doesn’t move. 🤗 He is wearing a L for reference and is an around 16.1hh. The only fly mask I’ll ever buy now!

Customer photo review of LE Outback Flymask Original

Great fit, no gaps around the nose for flies to crawl under with soft fabric that moulds to the shape of their face. Very small mesh so no midges can get through either. So far he hasn’t managed to get it off which is not the norm! Love the clearance over his eyes and even when he’s had a rub on something it hasn’t collapsed to the point it touches them. He’s a 16.3hh Andy x TB and in the Large, which is a great fit and would suit a boofier head too as still plenty of room on the elasticated Velcro straps to adjust. Will definitely buy again.

My 28yr old Princess has had a recent eye injury, this fly veil is the best on the market from someone who has purchased many recently and none have really been a good fit, until this fly veil. Thank you leader

Customer photo review of LE Outback Flymask Original

My boy Royal developed what is called UV sensitivity which can be serious if not treated property. After many discussions with my vet and expensive treatment, I found that your fly mask was worth a try. I would like it a little darker however I like the peak/cap part of the mask. He seems to be keeping it on in the paddock and he is in a very large paddock of approx 3 acres each day and in at night.

Love this fly mask! The medium fits my TB perfectly, and the visor keeps it well away from his eyes. I’m very happy with the quality, fit, and overall functionality.

Great flyveil. I could have probably gone medium as this is full & a little big, but it does the job perfectly. I like that you can correct shape if needed. Great clearance of eyes.

Love these fly masks! They stay well off their eyes. Great fit too. I must compliment this business on being the most communicative and professional company I have dealt with in a long time! A++

Customer photo review of LE Outback Flymask Original

This is the first fly veil that fits over the winkers of my harness horse’s bridle without pushing on the winkers. And this is huge!! My horse can be a monster when it comes to either halters or fly veils, rubbing them off, but the cloth between the ears and the trim, made it comfortable for him. At first I thought it was expensive, but now believe it’s good value for the money.

Love these boots. They match perfectly with the fly mask and after trying so many other brands, these have been the absolute best by far! Will be ordering another set.

It’s the only fly veil he doesn’t run away from.

Store owner replied: I love this review Tracy, thank you. This is what it’s all about for us, comfort they will choose 🙏🙌

Customer photo review of LE Outback Flymask Original

Disappointed, the front collapse on one side , as you can see from the pics the grass seeds got stuck in the soft fabric. The Horseware veils work better for us, no seeds and the frame hasn’t changed, However we love our rugs from Leader and Horseware, I think Leader rugs fit better

LE Outback Flymask Original

Store owner replied: Hi Nicole, we appreciate your feedback. The brim can be just poked back, even if it comes in a bit you should still have great eye clearance because of where it sits above the eyeline. For those that find other flymasks a bit heavy or sitting a bit low, this build is a great alternative, and in general in the flymask world, the softer fabrics mean a closer fit, less chance of rubbing on the more sensitive horses etc. However, the aim is to carry a range that everyone can find something to suit them. Thank you for your kind words on our rugs. We look forward to continuing to provide great options for you and your horses :) LE Team

Customer photo review of LE Outback Flymask Original

Well I only had it on my mare for a week or so. Didn’t last long at all. She now has a Wild horse mask on now. I found them to be more robust than the LE Outback fly mask and last at least six months. It was a waste of money purchasing the LE Outback fly mask. I gave it a go but failed miserably.

LE Outback Flymask Original

Store owner replied: Hi Jennifer, many of our customers and their horses love this flymask style because of the room it gives their eyes and eyelashes, and the comfort when wearing it. For a few horses the one drawback is the wide/tall brim that can be enticing for playing with and it's very hard to make something able to withstand the force that can be applied in that instance that is also very lightweight and breathable - however we are working on it for future iterations of this style. The wildhorse likely doesn't present in the same way with the different shape and if that suits your horse's situation that's great. Our customers are always welcome to reach out directly to our team so that we can review and help resolve concerns should they occur. Kind regards LE Team

Customer photo review of LE Outback Flymask Original

This is the best fly veil I’ve ever purchased! It has excellent clearance around the eyes - which has always been a concern for me with other makes. It fits well - I have the large/full size for my heavy boned 16.1hh thoroughbred. He happily wears this and waits for me to put it on before he has his feed or goes for a roll!

Absolutely delighted with it. My QH has very sensitive eyes so the added visor is just perfect. Stays in place well too

I needed a good fly mask which gave clearance from Tooheys face while he is recovering from a fractured skull and major surgery to repair it. Keeping the flies of his face perfectly.

Store owner replied: So glad this mask is working for your poor horse Sharlene. I hope he has a great recovery, wishing you the best.
