FAQs

What is the girth made of?

The Shires Velociti Lusso Anatomical Girth is made of eco-friendly, vegetable-tanned European leather with stainless steel fittings.

How do I clean the girth?

Wipe the girth down with a damp cloth after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner.

How often should I condition the leather?

Condition the leather regularly, typically every few weeks, or more frequently if used in wet conditions. Follow the conditioner's instructions.

What are the benefits of the anatomical design?

The anatomical design allows for greater freedom of movement and reduces pressure points, promoting the horse's comfort.

Can I use this girth with any saddle?

Yes, as long as the billets on your saddle are compatible with the girth's buckles.

What is the carabiner clip for?

The carabiner clip is for attaching a martingale or other training aids.

Troubleshooting

Girth doesn't fit properly.

Recheck the sizing and adjust the buckles to ensure an even and comfortable fit. If the fit is consistently poor, consider trying a different size.

Leather feels stiff or dry.

Apply a leather conditioner. Regular conditioning will help maintain the leather's suppleness.

Buckles are difficult to adjust.

Clean the buckles to remove any dirt or debris that may be causing friction. Apply a small amount of oil to the moving parts if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Sizing: Ensure you select the correct size girth for your horse. Measure the existing girth or follow the horse's sizing guide.
  2. Attachment: Attach the girth to the billets on your saddle.
  3. Adjusting: Adjust the buckles on both sides to ensure even pressure and a comfortable fit, allowing for two to three fingers' width between the girth and the horse.

Care

  • Cleaning: After each ride, wipe down the girth with a damp cloth to remove sweat and dirt.
  • Leather Conditioning: Regularly apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Follow the conditioner's instructions.
  • Storage: Store the girth in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
