Stübben Neoprene Girth Coolmax Shorts Without Elastic

Choose the same length as your current, well-fitting girth. Stübben measures the size from buckle to buckle and says this girth is true to size. If you are between two sizes, take the longer one so the buckle sits above the elbow.

Because the ends do not give, it pays to girth up gradually: one hole on the left, one hole on the right. Check the girth again after a few steps in walk and only then tighten further. Rinse the girth straight after a sweaty session so the neoprene stays supple and clean.

This girth suits riders with a dressage saddle or another saddle with long girth straps who want an easy-care neoprene girth without elastic, for daily training and competitions.

If you do want elastic at both ends and a D-ring for training aids, choose the Stübben Neopreen Singel Kort Met Elastiek. Prefer leather with an anatomical shape and no elastic? Then the Schockemöhle Pittsburgh girth without elastic is the alternative. If you are looking for a girth whose elastic rings spread pressure evenly, have a look at the Stübben Equi-Soft dressage girth.

Girth up gradually and evenly on both sides, do not pull too tight and check the girth again after a few steps in walk. After use, wipe the girth down or rinse it with water, then let it air dry. Do not use harsh detergents and do not put it in the washing machine.

Which size should I choose?

How does it differ from the Stübben neoprene girth with elastic?
