Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure I have the correct size and fit for my horse?
A: Follow the jaw-line rule: when held taut, the rings should reach the horse's jaw or throat-latch area. For the neck strap, ensure you can comfortably slide a flat hand between the leather and the horse’s neck to allow for proper clearance.

Q: Is this martingale suitable for cross-country and high-intensity jumping?
A: Yes, the Lusso Running Martingale is specifically designed for disciplines like eventing and show jumping, providing essential leverage to prevent the horse from evading the bit or tossing their head on undulating terrain.
