Professional's Choice Bison Contoured 2" Breast Collar

Crafted for the serious rider, this Professional's Choice breast collar combines the rugged strength of authentic shrunken bison leather with an ergonomic, contoured fit that prioritizes your horse's comfort and performance.

Key Features

• Authentic Bison Leather: Made from high-quality shrunken bison hide, known for being significantly stronger and more durable than traditional cowhide while maintaining a soft, supple feel.
• Ergonomic Contoured Shape: Specifically engineered to follow the natural curve of the horse’s chest and shoulders, preventing the collar from restricting movement or "cutting in" during intense activity.
• Heavy-Duty Hardware: Equipped with rust-resistant stainless steel buckles and a premium brass downstrap for long-lasting reliability in all weather conditions.
• Superior Construction: Features a doubled and stitched design, often backed with soft latigo or harness leather to provide extra cushioning against the horse’s skin.
• Premium Aesthetic: A rustic, high-end finish makes this breast collar equally suitable for daily ranch work, roping, or the Western show ring.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the contoured design actually prevent rubbing?
Yes. Unlike traditional straight 2-inch breast collars that can dig into the shoulder as the horse moves, the contoured design distributes pressure more evenly across the chest. This follows the horse's natural gait, significantly reducing the risk of chafing, rubbing, and "galling."

Is it durable enough for daily ranch work or roping?
Absolutely. Bison leather is prized in the equestrian industry for its high tensile strength. This breast collar is built to be a "workhorse" piece of tack, capable of withstanding the rigors of heavy ranch work and roping while maintaining its integrity.

How do you clean and maintain bison leather?
To maintain the distinct grain and texture, it is recommended to clean the leather with a damp cloth after use. Use high-quality leather oils or conditioners specifically formulated for bison or heavy-duty harness leather to keep the fibers from drying out or weakening over time.

Is the sizing adjustable for different horse breeds?
The RH BC CONTOURED 2 typically includes adjustable tugs (the straps that attach to the saddle) designed to fit most average-sized horses, such as Quarter Horses and Paints. For exceptionally large or very small horses, additional holes may be punched for a custom fit.
