Why These Reins Belong in Your Tack Room

• Zero Break-In Time. These reins come pre-oiled and edged, meaning they are soft, supple, and ready to use the moment they arrive at your barn.
• Superior Durability. The doubled and stitched 2-ply latigo construction prevents stretching and ensures these reins can handle the rigors of daily ranch work and performance training.
• Enhanced Communication. Featuring weighted ends, these reins provide a natural "drape" that allows for subtle, clear signals between your hand and the horse's mouth.
• Perfect Hand Feel. The 5/8" width is the "goldilocks" size—substantial enough for a secure grip without feeling bulky or cumbersome for riders with smaller hands.
• Professional Pedigree. Developed by Hall of Fame trainer Al Dunning, every detail of these reins is optimized for Western disciplines like Reining, Cutting, and Working Cow Horse.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What makes the 2-ply construction better?

Unlike single-ply leather, the 2-ply design of these Al Dunning reins is doubled and stitched, which significantly reduces stretching over time and adds the weight necessary for a better "hang" in the hand.

Q: Are these reins suitable for smaller horses?

Yes, the 5/8" width is highly versatile, and the weighted ends ensure that even with a shorter neck, the reins maintain a steady, clear connection.

Q: Do I need to oil these before the first use?

No, these Professional's Choice reins are pre-oiled and edged, so they are soft and ready to ride right out of the box.
