FAQs

How do I measure my horse for the correct girth size?

Use a soft measuring tape and measure from the buckle on one side of the saddle, around the horse's girth area, to the buckle on the other side. This will give you the circumference. Refer to the size guide to select the appropriate size.

What materials is the ARMA Anti-Chafe Anatomical Girth made of?

It is made of anti-chafe fabric with a waffle material and reinforced with non-stretch nylon webbing and stainless steel fittings.

How do I clean the ARMA girth?

Wipe it clean with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Can I use this girth for all types of riding?

Yes, this girth can be used for various disciplines, including general riding, training, and competition. Make sure it fits correctly for your specific use.

What are the benefits of the anatomical shape?

The anatomical shape is designed to provide greater freedom of movement, especially behind the elbows, promoting comfort and reducing the risk of rubs.

How often should I check the girth for wear and tear?

Inspect the girth before each ride, paying close attention to the buckles, stitching, and fabric for any signs of damage.

What is the purpose of the waffle material?

The waffle material helps prevent moisture build-up and promotes airflow, which can reduce sweat and prevent chafing.

Troubleshooting

Girth slipping or saddle instability.

Check the tightness of the girth and ensure it is properly positioned. Verify the size is appropriate for your horse.

Rubbing or chafing occurs.

Make sure the girth is properly fitted and not too tight. Check for any foreign objects under the girth.

Buckles are difficult to fasten.

Clean and lubricate the buckles. Check for any damage or obstructions.
