The Henry James V-Grip Hybrid Rubber Reins are designed for equestrians who prioritize a secure, consistent contact and reliable grip, whether schooling at home or competing in the ring. Featuring a specialized chevron-patterned rubber with a high-strength nylon core, these reins offer a soft, tactile feel that excels in both wet and dry conditions. While these reins provide exceptional stability for riders of all levels, users should note that the 19.5mm width and thicker rubber profile may feel substantial for riders with smaller hands or those who prefer thin, flat leather reins.

Yes, their clean black design and quality leather accents make them appropriate for most schooling and competition environments.
Absolutely. The soft, rounded rubber pimples are designed to be comfortable against bare skin as well as when wearing gloves.
The Full size variant measures 56 inches in total length.
If properly maintained and kept out of extreme heat or harsh chemicals, the high-quality rubber is designed to remain flexible for years.
No, the nylon is internal; the exterior is designed for flexibility, allowing the reins to drape softly over the horse's neck.
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner to the loops to soften the leather and ease the fastening process.
Ensure all soap residue is fully rinsed away and let the rubber air dry completely before use.
Apply a tiny drop of glycerine soap to the underside of the stopper to help it glide more smoothly along the rein.
To attach these reins, use the billet fastenings to loop through your bit rings securely. Ensure the martingale stoppers are positioned between the bit and the rider’s hands. For care, wipe down the leather sections with a quality leather conditioner to prevent cracking, but avoid applying heavy oils directly to the rubber grip, as this can degrade the material. The rubber portion should be cleaned by gently scrubbing with a soft brush and mild soapy water to remove dirt buildup in the chevron grooves. Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the flexibility of the rubber.
