xOverview
The Kensington CatchMask UViator is a high protection fly mask designed for horses who deserve dependable sun and pest defense without the bulk of ears or forelock coverings. This version features a Freedom Web Trim and comes in a Medium size in Lavender Mint 2017. Built with Kensingtons Solar Screen Textilene fabric, it blocks a full 90% of UV rays while prioritizing airflow and clear visibility for your ride or daily turnout.
Wear it year round with confidence. The mask performs well in bright sun, reflective surfaces from wet or snowy ground, and changing weather, helping reduce glare while keeping your horse comfortable and alert. The design is streamlined enough to sit neatly under a bridle, supporting a seamless, secure fit across long days in the saddle or at the paddock fence.
