Our cob is 15.3, very flat backed, no withers, extremely broad chested and a very deep neck.

She needs a very generous fitting fly rug. Any suggestions?
 
I use the shires fly rug that has a waterproof section over back on my wide mare. Fits like a glove! I avoid mark todd fly rugs as they rub her shoulders even though she wears their turnout and stable rugs
 
I have a fly rug made by the Big Horse Co for my 17.3hh hw id it is actually too big around the chest and neck so would probably be the right shape for your cob
 
I have the Amigo Mio for Mel who is 14.2 very very wide has a very deep neck and about 6inches thickness of mane too.
The hood is a good length but as I dont like neck pieces actually sitting on the skin I extend hers so she can graze comfortably.
My boss has a 17.3/18hh Dresage horse who is built like a sherman tank and the Bridleway fly rug fits him very nicely.
