Troubleshooting
Girth appears too loose or too tight.
Adjust the straps using the roller buckles. Ensure you can fit two fingers comfortably between the girth and the horse's skin. Check if you have selected the correct length variant for your horse.
Horse shows signs of discomfort or rubbing.
Ensure the girth is positioned correctly and lying flat. Clean the girth to remove any grit that might cause irritation. If the issue persists, the 10.5cm width may not be suitable for your horse's conformation.
Buckles are stiff or difficult to use.
Clean the buckles to remove any dirt or debris. A light application of a suitable metal lubricant might help, but ensure it does not transfer to the horse's coat.
