This creates the necessary friction and strength to prevent the leather from tearing at the holes under extreme tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e OL134R\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martin Saddlery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46836925759709,"sku":"OL134R","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/optimized_88e04e4d-b665-4646-8dcb-bad52be524f7.webp?v=1767104663","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/martin-saddlery-offside-latigo-roper","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
