Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the primary material of the girth?

The girth is primarily made from soft, supple, pre-oiled American leather.

What is the purpose of the central carabiner clip?

The central carabiner clip is designed for the easy attachment of training aids, such as martingales.

How do I clean the non-slip liner?

The neoprene liner is detachable and can be hand washed with mild soap and water. Ensure it is completely dry before reattaching.

Can I use other types of liners with this girth?

Yes, this girth comes with a detachable liner system and is compatible with other LeMieux liners, such as the Merino+ liner (sold separately).

Why is the girth contoured?

The girth is contoured to provide unrestricted clearance around the horse's elbows, enhancing comfort and freedom of movement.

How often should I condition the leather?

Condition the leather periodically, especially after cleaning or if it appears dry. The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions, but a regular check is recommended.

What kind of finish does the leather have?

The leather has a subtle matte finish.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or stiff

Apply a suitable leather conditioner specifically designed for oiled leather. Follow the product instructions for application and allow it to absorb fully.

Liner not staying attached

Ensure the hook and loop fasteners on both the girth and the liner are clean and free from debris. Press firmly to secure.

Buckles are difficult to fasten

Check the buckles for any dirt or debris. Clean with a dry cloth. If the issue persists, the buckles may require gentle lubrication with a silicone-based product (ensure it does not transfer to the leather).

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, supple leather that breaks in nicely.
  • Contoured design significantly improves horse comfort and elbow freedom.
  • Detachable liner system offers flexibility and easy maintenance.
  • Integrated carabiner is convenient for training aids.
  • Durable construction with high-quality hardware.

Cons

  • Requires regular conditioning and care due to the natural leather.
  • The premium materials may come at a higher price point.
  • Only one liner type is included; others are sold separately.
  • The matte finish can be susceptible to scuffs if not maintained.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Attach the girth to your saddle D-rings and then to your horse, ensuring the liner is securely attached to the girth. Adjust to a comfortable, firm fit for your horse, not overtightening.

Compatibility: This girth is compatible with most standard saddles. The detachable liner system allows for potential compatibility with other LeMieux liners from the Hunter collection (sold separately).

Care:

  1. Liner: Detach the neoprene liner by unfastening the hook and loop fasteners. Hand wash the liner with mild soap and water. Allow it to air dry completely before reattaching.
  2. Leather Girth: Wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove dirt and sweat. Periodically apply a quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Avoid soaking the leather. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
