• Easy-Care Synthetic Materials: The machine-washable and quick-dry construction makes this an ideal staple for everyday schooling and training.
• Integrated Center D-Ring: Perfectly aligned for martingales or training aids to ensure even pressure distribution across the sternum.
• Versatile Sizing Options: Sized in 2-inch increments (typically 36" to 60"+) to provide a precise, secure fit for various horse shapes and breeds.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I ensure the best fit given the thickness of the fleece?
A: While these fit true to size, the fleece is quite plush; if your horse is between sizes, we recommend sizing up to ensure the padding clears the elbows and provides maximum protection against chafing.

Q: Is this girth suitable for jumping and everyday schooling?
A: Absolutely. This "Long Girth" is designed specifically for Jumping and All-Purpose saddles with standard-length billets, and its quick-dry material handles the rigors of daily use with ease.
