Frequently Asked Questions

What type of cinch should I use for my horse?

The best cinch depends on your horse’s build, riding discipline, and personal preference. Mohair cinches are breathable and gentle, neoprene cinches offer easy cleaning and durability, while fleece cinches add extra softness for sensitive horses.

How do I know what size cinch my horse needs?

We are strong believers that a shorter cinch is the best way to go for your horse. Simply take a string and hold it on one side of the horse at a point 3-4" above the elbow, and then run it under your horse to the opposite side at the same point (3-4" above the elbow) you will have measured the length of the cinch/girth your horse needs. Place the string against a yard stick or tape measure and you will have the exact length.

What’s the difference between a front cinch and a rear/flank cinch?

A front cinch secures the saddle in place. A rear or flank cinch provides added stability, especially during roping, ranch work, or steep trail rides by preventing the saddle from lifting at the back.

How can I prevent cinch sores and girth itch?

Choosing the right size cinch is key. It helps distribute even pressure and keeps the saddle in place without overtightening. Choosing a material that wicks away moisture and keeping your cinch clean is a must. Replacing or cleaning your cinch before it is filled with dirt, sweat, hair, and bacteria will help reduce friction and prevent sores around the horse’s elbow.

What is a shoulder relief cinch, and do I need one?

A shoulder relief cinch is designed to eliminate peak pressure on the horse’s shoulders, allowing for more natural movement. These are ideal for horses with forward girth grooves or those prone to rubbing.

How often should I replace my cinch?

Check your cinch regularly for cleanliness and wear, especially the roller buckles, and stitching. Replace it if you notice cracks, fraying, or loss of elasticity in materials like mohair, nylon webbing or leather body.
