FAQs
Is this leadrope suitable for tethering?
No, this leadrope is designed for supervised handling and walking, not for tethering or tying a horse unattended.
What material is the Shires Wessex leadrope made of?
It is made of high-quality, durable cotton designed for a comfortable grip.
How long is the leadrope?
The leadrope measures exactly 1.8 meters in length.
Does the clip rotate to prevent tangling?
Yes, it features a reliable swivel trigger clip that rotates to prevent the rope from twisting.
Can I machine wash this leadrope?
Hand washing is recommended to preserve the integrity of the cotton and the finish of the metal hardware.
Troubleshooting
Trigger clip is sticking or hard to open
Clear any grit or debris from the hinge and apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the spring mechanism.
Rope has become stiff after washing
Ensure the rope is completely dry and then vigorously flex or 'work' the rope between your hands to loosen the cotton fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Using this leadrope is straightforward: simply attach the swivel trigger clip to your horse's headcollar ring. It is compatible with most standard equine headcollars and halters. To ensure longevity, store the leadrope in a dry, ventilated area when not in use to prevent the cotton from absorbing humidity. If the leadrope becomes muddy or soiled, it can be hand-washed with mild soap and cold water. Always air dry away from direct heat sources, as excessive heat can weaken the cotton fibers over time.
