Soft Touch Dressage Girth
English Saddle Fittings/Pads
Manufacturer: Classic Equine
Model: Soft Touch Dressage Girth
Category: English Saddle Fittings/Pads
Purchase: Purchased from VTO Saddlery online for $44.95, I had just purchased my first dressage saddle and needed a girth that wouldn't cost a fortune to make due for the time being.
Likes: I like that it wasn't expensive, and it is really soft neoprene on the underside. It is non-chafing and flexible, stainless steel roller buckles. Heavy duty nylon that is "Impervious to Spurs" and it really is. it is really easy to clean - you just wipe if off. Doesn't even require the use of soap to make it look brand new for a show. Tightly woven nylon, and antifungal/antimicrobial underside.
Dislikes: The neoprene on the underside collects alot of dirt and it has to be cleaned rather frequently. The neoprene bends and creases form all over the underside as well.
Quality: Straight from the website:
Extra soft, non-chafing, non-galling virgin neoprene is self-lubricating, flexible, and reduces girth itch under extreme performance conditions.
Patented six-layer system eliminates twist and girth distortion. Anti-microbial and anti-fungal. Holders for belly strap. Custom designed stainless steel roller buckles at both ends will not rust. Double elastic at both ends. Seamless nylon top cover is impervious to spurs. Sizes 24-32.
Summary: Has a few minor problems but is a great girth for the price.
