What are the D-rings for?

Troubleshooting

Girth is causing rubs or sores.

Check the fit and ensure the girth is the correct size. Make sure the girth is not overtightened. Clean and condition the leather regularly to keep it supple.

Buckles are difficult to fasten.

Ensure the buckles are free of dirt and debris. Apply a small amount of leather lubricant to the buckles if needed.
