I bought one from Vallet Vet called a Kool Coat. Of course it hasn't been hot enough here yet to tell if my mare will sweat under it or not. Here's a link to the one I bought:
My horses can tear up a fly sheet in less than a day. I have to buy ones are durable. I bought an Amigo Mio fly rug. It is light weight and a soft material. That sucker has held up well. It stays centered and does not slide off to one side. It also has a neck piece that goes up to their ears. They run about $70 SSTack had them on sale 25% off last week. Don't know if the sale is still on. I only have a sheet on one horse right now and she stays in the pasture 24/7.
I have a Kool Coat with detachable neck. I keep the neck on and I did notice that he was a little bit sweaty in the chest.... He's rolled in it and it's staying all in one piece, so for the price tag I like it. I mostly wanted UV protection, so that's why I went with it. I can do fly spray, but I can't undo fading.

Does anyone have any recommendations for fly sheets that will not rub on their chests? Seems like all of them that I get slide back and rub the hair off their shoulders/chests
