Weaver Leather Working Tack Breast Collar - Heavy Harness Leather Pulling Style - Horse Size

Experience the ultimate in pulling power and shoulder freedom with a breast collar designed for the rigors of professional ranch life. This heavy-duty pulling collar ensures your horse can lean into the load without restriction, keeping your saddle secure and your horse comfortable during the toughest roping or trail sessions.

Handcrafted by Weaver Leather’s master artisans, this breast collar is built from premium heavy harness leather that undergoes a rigorous conditioning process. Each piece is weighted, dipped in oil, and dressed with "saddle butter" before being hand-rubbed to a supple finish, ensuring it arrives ready to work with weather-resistant durability that only gets better with age and use.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Authentic Pulling Design: Patterned after traditional harness pulling collars, this design attaches to the saddle swells to sit above the point of the shoulder for a total, unrestricted range of motion.
• Oil-Dipped Harness Leather: The heavy-duty leather is deeply conditioned with oil and hand-rubbed with saddle butter to provide a soft, "broke-in" feel and superior weather resistance right out of the box.
• Non-Rust Stainless Steel: Features high-quality stainless steel hardware that resists corrosion from sweat, rain, and grit, ensuring your gear remains safe and functional for years.
• Tapered Strength: The design tapers from 2-3/4" at the center down to 2" at the attachments, providing maximum strength where you need it most while reducing bulk near the horse's shoulders.
• High-Leverage Performance: Engineered specifically for roping, steer tripping, and ranch work, allowing the horse to lean into the collar for maximum leverage without restricting their breathing.
• Standard Horse Sizing: Designed as a "Horse Size" fit, optimized for the average ranch horse (approximately 14.2–15.2 hands) with adjustable tug straps for a fine-tuned fit.
• Rugged Versatility: A staple for everything from treacherous mountain trail riding to Ranch Riding classes where a "true working" aesthetic and heavy-duty performance are required.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Why should I choose a pulling collar over a traditional D-ring breast collar?
A: Unlike standard breast collars that can press against the point of the shoulder, this pulling collar attaches to the saddle swells. This design allows your horse to move their shoulders freely and provides a better angle for pulling heavy loads or navigating steep inclines.

Q: Does the leather require a long break-in period?
A: No. Because Weaver Leather dips this harness leather in oil and dresses it with saddle butter, it is exceptionally supple and "work-ready" the moment it arrives, requiring far less maintenance than dry-tanned alternatives.
