Product Information

The Kentucky Sheepskin Short Girth is a short girth with a soft layer of artificial sheepskin on a cotton lining. It is made for saddles with long girth straps, such as a dressage saddle or a mono flap saddle. Its big plus is the care: the whole girth can go into the washing machine at 30 °C, so it is quickly clean again after a sweaty session.

About this dressage girth

Kentucky calls this model the Sheepskin Short Girth; the Dutch name "Wol/Bont" (wool/fur) can be confusing. The sheepskin is artificial and, according to Kentucky, contains no animal materials. The soft layer sits on a cotton lining.

You use a short girth under a saddle whose girth straps reach below the saddle flap. The buckles then sit lower, under your leg, rather than under the flap. Each end has a standard buckle.

This is the simple, straight version. For this model Kentucky mentions no anatomical shape, no elastic and no D-rings. If you want a short sheepskin girth with an anatomical shape, there is the Kentucky Sheepskin Anatomic Short Girth, with a cut-back for the elbows, a D-ring for schooling aids and removable sheepskin.

At Maddelin this girth is available in Black/Natural, in 70 cm: a black girth with natural-coloured fleece in white to cream.

A short sheepskin girth collects a lot of sweat and dust. Brush out the sheepskin after every ride and wash the girth regularly at 30 °C. Let it air dry and keep it out of the tumble dryer.

As Kentucky mentions no elastic and no D-rings for this model, make sure you tighten it evenly on both sides yourself. If you often ride with schooling aids, a model with a D-ring will suit you better.

Choose the Kentucky Sheepskin Short Girth if you want a simple short sheepskin girth for a dressage or mono flap saddle that you can wash completely in the machine.

If you are looking for an anatomical shape with room for the elbows and a D-ring for schooling aids, go for the Kentucky Sheepskin Anatomic Short Girth or, without sheepskin, the Kentucky Anatomic Short Girth. If your saddle has short girth straps, like most jumping saddles, you need a long girth, such as the Kentucky Sheepskin Girth.

First buckle the girth loosely to the girth straps on both sides, then tighten it gradually, alternating left and right. Check the tension again once you are in the saddle. After use, brush sweat and sand out of the sheepskin. The whole girth can go in the washing machine at 30 °C; let it air dry and do not use a tumble dryer.
