Innovation

• DualChange System

Comfort

• Anatomical fit

Material

• Soft genuine leather
• Handcrafted
• Easy-care
• Rustproof stainless steel fittings
• Elastic inserts

Function

• With D-rings for auxiliary reins
• Roller buckles

• Horses with a sensitive girth area that react sensitively to pressure or friction and benefit from fur padding
• Horses with pronounced shoulder movement, for which an ergonomic long girth can create more space in the movement sequence
• Horses in regular training, for which even pressure distribution in the girth area supports relaxation and well-being
• Gymnastics and basic work, where no pronounced belly guard or additional protection is required
• Riders who wish to switch between leather and fur padding depending on the training phase or daily condition in order to flexibly adapt the saddle girth to different requirements
• Riders who work regularly with auxiliary reins and want a stable, integrated attachment option on the girth

the chest circumference of a horse expands measurably with every breath? The rib cage moves even more significantly at a trot or canter. A girth should allow for the natural expansion of the rib cage and distribute pressure evenly so that breathing and movement are not unnecessarily restricted. That is why our girths feature elastic inserts and an anatomical shape that harmoniously adapts to the movement of your horse.

What is the DualChange system?

The DualChange system allows you to switch between a leather pad and a fur pad. Both pads are securely attached to the girth via Velcro and can be exchanged as needed. This allows you to flexibly decide which padding is appropriate for training, sensitive horses, or different conditions.

Why is an anatomical shape useful?

An anatomical shape distributes pressure more evenly and leaves more room in the elbow area. This can improve freedom of movement and contribute to greater comfort under the saddle.

Which horses is this girth particularly suitable for?

The girth is particularly suitable for sensitive horses, horses with a sensitive girth area, or those prone to pressure sensitivity. Thanks to the soft padding and elastic inserts, it adapts better and supports a comfortable fit even during prolonged use.

Is the leather durable?

Yes, high-quality genuine leather is long-lasting, retains its shape, and is particularly robust with proper care.

What are the benefits of elastic inserts on the girth?

Elastic inserts compensate for the natural movement of the ribcage during breathing and movement. This makes tightening the girth easier and ensures even pressure distribution. Your horse can breathe more freely and remains more relaxed in its movement.

How do I properly care for the girth?

The leather can be cleaned of sweat and dirt with a damp cloth and treated regularly with leather care products. The fur pad is removable and can be cleaned separately.

What are the D-rings on the girth for?

The D-rings are used for attaching auxiliary reins or breastplates and expand the possibilities for use during training.

What are the advantages of roller buckles?

Roller buckles make tightening the girth easier and protect the leather, as it is guided evenly through the buckle.

• Use only for the intended purpose as a girth for securing the saddle to the horse.
• Check for damage, cracks, material fatigue, loose stitching, or defective buckles before every use.
• Do not continue to use the girth if visible damage or excessive wear is present.
• Check the fit and positioning regularly to avoid pressure points or chafing.
• Do not overtighten – sufficient freedom of movement for the ribcage must be ensured.
• Clean and care for the leather regularly to prevent drying out and material breakage.
• Use only suitable leather care products; do not use harsh cleaning agents, oils, or solvents.
• Allow wet leather to dry slowly at room temperature – not on radiators or in direct sunlight.
• Do not store near open flames or strong heat sources.
• Do not modify or repair the product yourself (e.g., rivets, holes, seams).
• Replace damaged or deformed metal parts (e.g., buckles, eyelets, rings) immediately.
