Popular short girth with SOFT EDGE and POLY-FLEX®
Our famous MATTES short girth with removable lambskin cover and ingenious SOFT EDGE: The quality lambskin has generous cutouts on both long edges to avoid edge pressure and chafing, just like all our other girths. The basic girth is padded with POLY-FLEX® inserts, finished with elasticated stainless steel buckles and a D-ring for a martingale.
Athletico: This girth has a specific fit adapted to horses with an athletic, wedge shaped body. The saddle has a tendency to slip backwards, also pulling the girth backwards, because all the lines of the horses body: back, ribcage and sternum to belly taper towards the rear. So, instead of opening to the rear this girth simply opens to the front, to a degree! Naturally, the internal construction is essential for the function of the girth! We developed this design, because this specific problem was pointed out to us by several riders and horse owners on quite a few jumpers and specifically in eventing horses!
