Which field safe headcollar?

[Ali2]

My horse hates suncream so wears a nose net but is not too enamoured with his full face fly mask. So, I am thinking of getting a nose net and a field safe headcollar. Which is better Horseware's velcro one or Aerborn's rubber ring one?

my horse had the rubber ring one... and very quickly learnt it 'pinged' off under very little strain... so it was complete waste of money for me.

I use a Libbys field collar but have to put 2 bands on strap cos if she rolls it come undone, works fine for me with a nose net

mine has the Aerborn one its brilliant, he hasnt broken it yet even when rolling vigorously which he does regularly and yes this involves a lot of head rubbing on the floor

Aerborn. The velcro ones are far too strong for my liking. The Aerborn ones you can mend the little rubber rings - spares and glue come with it.

My Aerborn ones are useless, when I was using them, most days I'd find them in bits in the field. I now have a cheapy home made ebay one with lots of velcro, and some of the Cottage Craft turnout headcollars that fasten using a plastic D on velcro. I like these as you can swap the clip from the plastic D to the metal D next to it, then it's as strong as a normal headcollar, for leading etc.
