The DualChange System makes the “SohoFlex” more than a classic girth. You get two interchangeable pads, a leather pad for example for summer, and a fur pad for particularly sensitive horses or more intensive training sessions. Both versions are securely attached with hook and loop and can be changed easily when needed. The girth was developed to distribute pressure evenly and support your horse’s natural movement. Especially in the sensitive girth area, the fit determines whether a horse can move freely or builds tension. The anatomical shape creates space for elbow and muscles, reduces pressure points, and ensures the saddle lies calmly.
 

• DualChange System, flexible for training: The DualChange System lets you adapt your girth to different requirements. Whether in daily training or across changing disciplines, you stay flexible and can fine-tune your setup. This reduces the need for extra girths and makes your equipment more versatile.You receive both a leather pad and a fur pad, each securely fixed to the girth with hook and loop. Depending on your needs, you can switch the padding easily. For sensitive horses or more intensive training sessions, the soft fur is a great choice, while the leather pad is ideal for summer. The strong fastening ensures the selected pad stays securely in place and does not slip.

• Anatomical fit, more freedom of movement: The shape takes the natural position of the girth zone into account. This distributes pressure more evenly and keeps the elbow area free. Your horse can breathe more comfortably and move without restriction, which can positively influence relaxation and willingness to perform.

• Soft genuine leather, comfortable and premium: The leather is pleasantly soft, adapts individually over time, and supports lasting comfort.

• Handcrafted, true craftsmanship: Each girth is made with great care. Precise workmanship and attention to detail show in clean transitions and durable construction. This means reliability for you over many years.

• Easy-care, made for everyday use: The combination of genuine leather and fur is easy to care for and practical for daily use. Light dirt on the leather can be removed with a damp cloth. For regular care, we recommend using a suitable leather conditioner to keep the material supple. The fur can be washed gently when needed, so sweat and dirt can be removed reliably.

• Rust-free stainless steel fittings, durable and stable: Stainless steel is resistant to moisture and corrosion. The fittings keep their stability and appearance even with regular use.

• Elastic inserts, controlled flexibility: The elastic elements give slightly with movement without losing stability. This supports gentle give during breathing and helps reduce tension.

• With D-rings for auxiliary reins, versatile use: The integrated D-rings allow easy attachment of auxiliary reins or breastplates. This keeps your training flexible and lets you secure additional equipment safely.

• Roller buckles, easy re-girthing: Integrated roller buckles make re-girthing easier because the leather glides through evenly. This protects the material and billets and allows finer adjustment.
   

Did you know that… a horse’s chest circumference expands measurably with every breath? In trot or canter, the ribcage movement becomes even more pronounced. A girth should allow this natural expansion and distribute pressure evenly so breathing and movement are not unnecessarily restricted. That is why our girths feature elastic inserts and an anatomical shape that harmonizes with your horse’s movement pattern.
 

FAQ about the “SohoFlex” girth:

Innovation

• What is the DualChange System?
  The DualChange System lets you switch between a leather pad and a fur pad. Both pads are securely fixed to the girth with hook and loop and can be swapped depending on your needs. This allows you to choose the most suitable padding for training, sensitive horses, or different conditions.

Comfort

• Why is an anatomical shape useful?
  An anatomical shape distributes pressure more evenly and creates more room in the elbow area. This can improve freedom of movement and contribute to a more comfortable feel under the saddle.

• Which horses is this girth especially suitable for?
  The girth is especially suitable for sensitive horses, horses with a sensitive girth area, or those prone to pressure sensitivity. The soft padding and elastic inserts help it adapt better and support a comfortable fit even during longer use.

Material

• Is the leather hard-wearing?
  Yes, high-quality genuine leather is durable, shape-stable, and very robust with proper care.

• What are the benefits of elastic inserts on a girth?
  Elastic inserts compensate for the natural movement of the ribcage when breathing and moving. This makes re-girthing easier and supports more even pressure distribution. Your horse can breathe more freely and stays more relaxed in its movement.

• How do I care for the girth properly?
  The leather can be wiped with a damp cloth to remove sweat and dirt and treated regularly with leather care. The fur pad is removable and can be cleaned separately.

Function

• What are the D-rings on the girth for?
  The D-rings are used to attach auxiliary reins or breastplates and expand your training options.

• What are the benefits of roller buckles?
