Total Saddle Fit StretchTec Leather Shoulder Reilef Girth

The Total Saddle Fit StretchTec Shoulder Relief Girth actually changes the position and angle of the saddle billets to prevent the saddle from interfering with the shoulder. The centre of the girth is set forward to sit in the natural girth position of the horse, while the sides are cut back to meet the billets, 2 inches behind where the horse’s natural girth is. This ensures the billets on the saddle are perpendicular to the ground, which reduces the saddle’s tendency to be pulled forward onto the shoulders. Apart from freeing up the shoulder, this girth gives more freedom to the elbow and thus preventing galls in the elbow area. The StretchTec girth has a triangular centre elastic that contours to the barrel of the horse and allows for the horse to breathe. The chest expands 1.5cm each time the horse takes a breath, and this girth prevents respiratory restriction and even girth contact for comfort of the horse. This girth was designed with a removable lining so you can change between neoprene and sheepskin. One girth can suit all your seasonal or riding needs, and it’s a breeze to clean!
