Ride with Confidence and Comfort: The Shires Neoprene Dressage Girth

Finding a girth that stays put without causing rubs or irritation can be a challenge, especially during intense schooling sessions.

Built for the long haul, this girth combines practical durability with the performance features you need for daily training. Whether you are working on lateral movements or just enjoying a light hack, the contoured design ensures your horse can move freely and breathe easily from our barn to yours.

Why You Will Love the Shires Neoprene Girth

• Superior Stability: The honeycomb-textured neoprene provides a natural non-slip surface, keeping your saddle secure on round-barreled horses without the need for over-tightening.
• Maximum Breathability: Perforated neoprene allows heat and moisture to escape, preventing sweat buildup and reducing the risk of skin irritation during heavy work.
• Effortless Cinching: Equipped with heavy-duty stainless steel roller buckles, this girth allows for smooth, easy adjustments that will not wear down your long dressage billets.
• Even Pressure Distribution: Featuring triple-layer elastic at both ends, the design allows your horse to expand their ribcage comfortably while maintaining a consistent, secure fit across the sternum.
• Low-Maintenance Care: Unlike traditional leather, this neoprene girth can be hosed off instantly after your ride and dries quickly, making it the perfect workhorse for your daily tack rotation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I choose the right size for the Shires Neoprene Dressage Girth?

To find your size, measure from the middle hole of the billets on one side, under the belly, to the middle hole on the other side. Ensure the girth is long enough so the buckles sit well above the horse's elbow to prevent girth galls or rubs when the leg moves backward.

Q: Is this girth suitable for horses with sensitive skin?

Yes! The soft, cushioned neoprene is an excellent choice for girthy horses or those prone to skin irritation, as it provides a flexible, padded barrier that moves with the horse. Plus, the Shires Neoprene Dressage Girth is breathable to prevent heat-related rashes.
