This is a fantastic item for horse comfort as it spreads the weight over the sternum better than most other cinches and is cut back behind the elbow allowing the horse more space for movement than a traditional straight cinch.
This cinch comes with the removable cover.
This cinch is also a good choice for treeless saddles as you can do this up a little tighter without damaging the muscles over the sternum.
Western cinch girth - Contoured - Complete made with 100% genuine sheepskin and stainless steel cinch buckles. The interior of the cinch girth incorporates Poly-flex® for optimum pressure distribution and a soft edge to protect against chafing whilst allowing freedom of movement in the elbow area. The buckle flap edges are tapered to prevent any pressure ridges. A 'D' ring is incorporated for use with a martingale or draw reins.
Ideal for ponies/horses whose belly/rib cage confirmation moves the girth forward. These shaped cinches are good for nearly all shapes of horse, due to the greater weight bearing comfort and the space for elbow movement.
The wider centre piece measures approximately 15.5cms from front to back. The standard centre piece measures approximately 13.5cm from front to back.
To ensure that the centre of the cinch girth does not twist or curl between the horses elbows, a shaped insert is located in the central pocket. Before washing, the shaped insert should be removed from the pocket and be re-inserted before use.
Ideal for ponies/horses which requires more freedom of movement in the elbow area due to a more forward girth groove.
If you have a pale coloured horse, please be advised to choose the lighter colour sheepskins, as on occasion the dye has run when wet. Please see the colour charts in the gallery photos, or click the links below.
Fading of the wools‘ surface is also possible. This is due to the composition of the horses’ sweat, which can be different from horse to horse. Velvet wears better than the cotton quilt.
