Works well
I bought this a about a month ago for my horse that seemed distracted in the indoor . I find it helped quite a bit to keep him focused on his work. Its very good quality and fits well.

Needs improvement
This bonnet needs more knit material behind the crown piece like the Schockemoehle version. My mare shook it off on our first ride. The Schockemoehle version stays on much better. I was hoping it would work, because it’s reasonably priced. Rats!

Nice … just wish it would fit a warmblood.
Pros: Nice bonnet- seems to be well-made. Smartpak great to deal with for orders and returns. Cons. Horse size will not fit a 17 hand warmblood.

Doesn’t stay on very well
The bonnet fit my 15hh mare pretty well, but the product itself was a disappointment. Even though the fit is good, there’s no loops or ties to keep it attached to the bridle properly. After two different rides where my mare shook her head and was able to completely toss both it and the bridle off without much effort, I decided to not press my luck. I borrowed an identical sized ear bonnet that had ties and it stayed on beautifully compared to this one. While this looks nice, it also started to warp and pick in spots after the first use. Overall, it might work well for someone who has a horse that doesn’t shake their head at times, but this slides off quite easily and wound up spooking my horse as a result.

Not for sparkly browbands
Initially I thought this would work out well but the first time I put it on it caught on the sparkles on my browband and tore. It catches on the jewels every single time. The thick neoprene also makes his ears look big. Otherwise nice looking

Worked well.
The bonnet fits my horse well and looks attractive. He adapted to it easily, not like the ear plugs I tried to use that he continually shook out. It appears to help.

My horse hated it. Shook his head till it flew off
It was a waste of money for me. Tried it once and my horse just plain hated it.

Silent ear bonnet deluxe
I bought this a few weeks ago. Overall happy with the quality, however, the ears on it are slightly too short for my mare. Not sure if they will stretch or not but I hope so.

Stylish ear bonnet!
I've only used this ear bonnet a few times but I feel that it keeps my horse (and I!) more focused! My arena is near a road and I thought that the "silencing" neoprene might be beneficial for riding after work under limited lighting. It looks very nice and stays on fine under the bridle (doesn't have a string tie)
