Care Instructions

Machine washable for easy maintenance. Remove from saddle and wash fleece regularly to prevent buildup of dirt, sweat, and bacteria. Use mild detergent and cold water. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat. Brush fleece gently to restore softness after washing. Check stainless steel hardware and elastic regularly for wear. Proper cleaning extends girth life and maintains moisture-wicking effectiveness.

Sizing & Fit Information

Available in multiple sizes to fit various horse builds. Measure your horse's girth area from billet to billet under the saddle for accurate sizing. The anatomical shape should position the elbow cutout properly to avoid interference. The elastic end straps provide some adjustability for fine-tuning fit. Consult sizing charts or a professional for horses with unusual conformation.

Why Choose EquiCool Technology?

Traditional leather and synthetic girths can trap heat and moisture against your horse's skin, creating the perfect environment for bacteria and fungus to thrive. EquiCool technology actively manages moisture by wicking it away from the body, maintaining a healthier, more comfortable environment. This is particularly important for horses that work hard, live in humid climates, or have sensitive skin prone to irritation.
