TIP 1:
You must use a cinch that is
specifically designed with
your horse's comfort in
mind. |
TIP 3:
When the cinch is tight, the
D's should lay flat and clean
against the horse's heart
girth or "sweet spot". If it
rides above or below the
sweet spot, it can cause
soreness and discomfort. |
TIP 5:
Use a western cinch with stainless
steel hardware. Stainless steel is
long lasting and will not rust,
corrode or bind up. Classic
Equine cinches are made with
stainless steel hardware to
ensure getting the highest
quality product possible.

TIP 2:
Choose a cinch by
measuring the distance
from one heart girth or
"sweet spot" under the
belly to the opposite one. |
TIP 4:
To allow flexibility or "give" as
your horse moves, use a
cinch/latigo combination.
Leather is a natural fibre that
has "give". Leather latigos
slightly expand and move with
the horse as you ride. |
TIP 6:
Help your cinch last longer by
flipping and rotating sides
every three to six months.
This will ensure your cinch
wears evenly, extending the
life of the cinch so you get the
most out of your investment. |
