Prefer my Rambo Sweet Itch Hoody TBH.

My boy shredded his WB one last year after only 2 months in it. And it slipped like hell. But maybe that was just the fit on him I dont know. Love WB's but not their fly rugs.

Mmmmmmmmmmm the girlie I am buying it for can be a bit of a rug monster, have an Amigo for my TB which fits great, so may well wait for one of them.....

I have one and I hate it. I will be replacing it this year with an amigo bug rug.

had one for first horse and it never stayed in place, due to the belly flap I think? However have a mark todd one and have been very impressed with that

I dont like fly rugs but I do like the WB koolcoat, its an Australian style white cotton sheet, no flies, no coat bleaching, horse stays clean and cool( really works!) and its cheap.
Nuff said!
Fly rugs either seem like starched fishnets or the thick WB combos make them sweat something chronic.

i have one for my tbxid and i found i couldnt get the tummy flap tight enough it was just hanging down under his belly defeating the whole point of having it

I had one for my highland it never stayed in place and the neck bit was to short only went half way up his neck. althought i never had a problem with the belly starps with a highland.

Don't think i would have one again.
I started using stop itch salve and have not needed a rug since!!!!! we almost have a full mane and tail all year now
