Dressage Girths

Dressage Girths

The dressage girths here are all short girths from Kentucky Horsewear, built to fit dressage saddles where the long billet straps reach down to the horse’s belly and need a shorter girth to buckle close to the elbow. Three of the four use an anatomic shape that’s cut away through the elbow area to give the horse freer movement in the shoulder, and all four are made from Kentucky’s artificial leather (vegan, low maintenance, and reinforced with nylon to prevent stretch).

The Anatomic Short Girth is the base option, with the cut-away shape, leather loops to keep girth straps tidy, and a D-ring on the underside for attaching schooling equipment or a breastplate. The two Sheepskin Anatomic Short Girths add a removable artificial sheepskin lining attached by Velcro, with two liner colours supplied per girth so the look can be switched between natural and the leather colour. The standard Sheepskin Short Girth uses the same artificial sheepskin lining without the anatomic cut, offering full coverage for horses that don’t need elbow relief but do benefit from a plush, breathable lining to prevent chafing.

All four are available in black and brown. For the matching upper layer to complete the dressage turnout, the dressage saddle pads range covers Kentucky options designed to colour-match. For other disciplines, the wider girths range covers jumping girths, eventing girths, and stud girths for protecting the belly from studded shoes.
