Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is the neoprene lining removable?
No, the neoprene lining is permanently attached to ensure stability and consistent comfort during use.
Can this girth be used for riding?
No, this product is specifically designed for lunging and groundwork; it is not reinforced for saddle attachment or rider weight.
How do I know if the girth fits correctly?
The girth should sit firmly against the horse's barrel without restricting breathing, with the arched section providing clear space over the withers.
What is the best way to clean the neoprene?
Use a soft brush to remove dried mud and a damp sponge with mild soap to clean the surface, then rinse and air dry.
Are the rings made of stainless steel?
The rings are designed to be durable for training purposes and are resistant to corrosion from sweat and moisture.
Troubleshooting
Girth sliding forward
Ensure the girth is tightened evenly and check that the saddle pad or lunging pad is not too slick.
Visible pressure marks on the withers
Reposition the girth further back or ensure it is not being overtightened, which can pull the material against the wither area.
Pros and Cons

- Ergonomic design prevents wither pressure
- Durable nylon construction for long-term use

- Bright pink color may show dirt faster than darker shades

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the girth, place it centered over the horse's back, ensuring the arched portion is positioned directly over the withers. Tighten the girth gradually from both sides to ensure the pressure is distributed evenly.
- Compatibility: This girth is designed to fit standard lunging cavessons and side reins, making it compatible with most common equestrian training systems.
- Cleaning: Wipe the nylon exterior with a damp cloth to remove sweat and dust. The neoprene lining should be rinsed with mild soapy water if it becomes heavily soiled and left to air dry out of direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew and to keep the nylon fabric in top condition.
