Lengths, styles and colours - you set the tone
You can choose a length between 50 cm and 120 cm in our Configurator. The tough outer material and the highly functional lambskin are available in more than 30 different colours, with a choice of almost 50 shades for the decorative trim. Our short girth is available in anatomical, asymmetric, crescent and athletico styles. Replacement girths and lambskin are available separately.
Anatomical: For horses with a well-defined girth groove, this girth is contoured a little at the front and back around the elbow area.
Asymmetric: For horses whose girth groove is closer to the elbows or less well-defined, this girth is significantly contoured at front the around the elbow area.
Crescent: If a horse has a short back, a broad ribcage or a narrow chest, the girth often slips forward - the crescent shape prevents this.
Athletico: For horses with an athletic, wedge-shaped physique. The design of the girth prevents the saddle and girth from sliding back.

Note:
There is a possibility of dye bleeding into the horses hair or other materials from dark or bright colored skin, because of the horses-sweat or use of unsuitable washing detergent.
Strong dyed leather of saddles etc. can also leave discolorations.
