EquiFit Ear Bonnet Size Guide

Measuring your horse's ear height and base width will ensure the most accurate fit. Sizes below cover both the Ear Bonnet and SilentFit ranges. (EquiFit lists this size as "Horse" — on our site it is labelled "Full.")

Style / Size	Ear Height	Ear Circumference	Pole Gap
Ear Bonnet – Pony	6.5"	8.5"	3.75"
Ear Bonnet – Cob	6.75"	8.5"	4.25"
Ear Bonnet – Full	7.25"	9.5"	4.75"

SilentFit – Full	7.5"	9.5"	4.75"
SilentFit – Oversize	8.0"	9.5"	4.75"

Ear height — measure from the base of the ear to the tip.

Ear circumference — measure around the widest part of the ear near the base.

Pole gap — the distance between the ears across the poll.

Note: Measurements are EquiFit's published values. "Full" corresponds to EquiFit's "Horse" size. If your horse is between sizes, size up for full ear coverage.

The EquiFit SilentFit HeadsUp Ear Bonnet combines the HeadsUp alert-patch format with SilentFit sound-inhibiting construction — for riders who want a polished bonnet, the visual-alert system, and a quieter feel for the horse.
