Train Your Mini’s Mane While Keeping Him Clean
When it comes to sleezy hoods, miniature horses have special needs. That’s why we created our Miniature Horse Lycra Sleezy Hood. This high-quality hood—far superior to cheap Chinese imports—trains the mane and keeps the head, neck, and shoulders clean and fly-free. It’s designed to be the most comfortable-fitting hood your mini can wear while providing for maximum body movement.
Use our miniature horse slickers in the winter to help keep the hair coat short (and cut down on drying time after a workout). These sleezys can also be used under a blanket to prevent rub marks. Our exclusive mini sleazy hood is made from the finest quality, four-way stretch Lycra available on the market today. This fabric resists tears, snagging, and has an excellent memory!
- Made with pride in the USA
- Exclusively designed for the miniature horse
- Trains the mane while polishing the hair coat
- High-strength Gütermann thread for supreme durability
- Extra-large eye holes and adjustable noseband for comfort
- Extra length over withers for a more comfortable fit
- Keeps mane neat and tidy
- No fleece on noseband to pick up shavings, etc.
- Use under a blanket for extra warmth or to prevent chafing and blanket rubs
- Machine washable
Every Miniature Horse Lycra Sleezy Hood comes with an adjustable noseband with Velcro closure, large eye holes that won’t run up into your mini’s eyes, extra-deep shoulder coverage, and your choice of an easy-to-fasten ABS side-release buckle or Velcro closure at the girth. It’s so easy to create the perfect one-of-a-kind hood, made to order just for you and your mini. You design it—we build it!
Sizing
Our customized fit system ensures your miniature horse gets the fit you’re looking for. No one-size-fits=all like the other brands! But your mini that isn’t average? Call us or use this Measuring Guide.
Easy on/Easy off
In general, most minis tolerate things pulled over their heads. Therefore, it is easy to put on a sleezy. Open the noseband Velcro. Bunch up the slinky and slip it over your mini’s head. Adjust the holes until your miniature’s eyes and ears are in the center.  Slide the remaining slinky over the neck and shoulders. Close the girth attachment and the noseband Velcro. Finally, your mini’s horse slinky should fit smooth, like swimwear, but not tight.
Or watch this AQHA video on how to put on a lycra horse hood. Likewise, it works great for minis.
Care
Because the Miniature Horse Lycra Sleezy Hood is made from 80% nylon/ 20% Lycra, it is machine washable. Air dries quickly. Also, follow our simple Care Instructions for best results.

I won’t buy any other sleezy. These are THE best ones I’ve ever had!!! They fit well, they last and my horses are all fine wearing them. Other brands will get in their eyes are move around or tear…..NOT these!!!! My last one I ordered, I had you make the nose shorter for my gelding (he has a short head). It fits him WONDERFULLY!!! Thank you, Thank you!!!!

I just want to say THANK YOU! The order came so fast and the quality is outstanding! I’ve been so disappointed with the products I’ve purchased for my mini in the past because of the fit and ended up feeling like I was throwing money down the drain. Your shop is incredible and will be my go-to from here on out!
