horses have a particularly high number of sweat glands in the girth area? During intense work, moisture quickly builds up there, which is why a well-padded and high-quality girth is crucial for reducing friction and keeping the skin healthy in the long term.

Why is an anatomical fit important for a girth?

The anatomical shape creates space in the shoulder area and distributes pressure evenly. This supports free movement and increases comfort for your horse.

Is the girth also suitable for sensitive horses?

Yes, thanks to the soft leather surface, extra padding, and elastic inserts, the girth is particularly suitable for horses with a sensitive girth area.

What are the D-rings on the girth for?

The D-rings allow for the easy and secure attachment of auxiliary reins or breastplates, allowing you to design your training flexibly.

What are the advantages of roller buckles?

Roller buckles make tightening the girth easier, as the billets slide more easily through the buckle. At the same time, the material is protected.

How do I properly care for the girth?

Dirt and sweat can be removed with a damp cloth. Regular leather care maintains suppleness and extends the lifespan.

Are the fittings rustproof?

Yes, the stainless steel fittings are rustproof and designed for daily use in various weather conditions.

• Use only for the intended purpose as a girth to secure the saddle to the horse.
• Check for damage, cracks, material fatigue, loose seams, or defective buckles before each use.
• Do not continue to use the girth if visible damage or excessive wear is present.
• Regularly check the fit and position to prevent pressure points or chafing.
• Do not overtighten – sufficient freedom of movement for the rib cage must be ensured.
• Clean and condition leather regularly to prevent drying out and material breakage.
• Use only suitable leather care products; do not use aggressive 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.
