I've used quite a few different brands of stretchy fly masks and I quite like this brand. It's affordable and the fit is fine. One of the biggest issues with stretchy fly masks are the eye holes. MANY masks are sold with mesh that's designed to be way too close to the horse's eyes, causing irritation or even injury. These masks have darts in the mesh around the eye holes which helps keep the mesh away from the eyes and there's enough material to keep the mesh away from the eyes as well. I personally like to turn my masks inside out so that the seams of the mask aren't touching the horse. I bought the horse size for my 16hh QH and it fits great.
My mask arrived in very nice packaging as well, which was a nice touch.
I just want to also say for those folks who aren't very familiar with stretchy masks: holes are probably going to happen. Horses love to shove their faces into things and they'll likely put a couple holes into the masks after awhile. It's no big deal. The tradeoff for getting a light-weight, breathable, no vision-impairment, tight-fitting mask is that the materials are naturally not as durable as a triple-ply coated traditional mask. Got holes in the mesh? Grab a bit of superglue, dab it on the cut edges, and let it dry between wax paper. Holes in the lycra? Sew it up or superglue it. No big deal.
