Stübben Equi-Soft® Girth

The Stübben Equi-Soft® Girth maximizes your horse’s ability to breathe and move freely. An innovative design, the girth is made from quality leather with stainless steel hardware that make it durable and easy to clean. It must be used with Stübben Equi-Soft Girth Padding, which is sold separately to enable you to choose the perfect padding option (Vachette Leather, Neoprene or Lambskin). 

Unique features offer multiple benefits:

• Elastic rings expand and contract with the horse’s breathing, ensuring constant and uniform pressure distribution. This allows the horse to expand its chest comfortably.
• Uniform pressure distribution is achieved with the girth’s ergonomic and fan-shaped design. It wraps around the horse’s chest from below and slightly to the sides, offering freedom of movement while significantly reducing girthiness.
• Stress is reduced during girth adjustments as the elastic rings reduce girth pressure. The effect minimizes stress levels in the horse.
• Lower heart rates were revealed in a scientific study on various girths. The study demonstrated that all horses showed a significantly lower heart rate when using the Equi-Soft girth.
• Interchangeable padding options let you choose from three different types, all easily replaceable through the hook-and-loop system. Padding is required for the girth and must be purchased in your preference of material separately.

Note: For proper use of the Equi-Soft girth, the padding (cover) must be positioned correctly on the girth with the holes free. The center of the girth should be placed centrally on the horse’s girth line. Even tension on both sides of the girth is recommended for optimal pressure distribution. Do not tighten the girth too much, as it may hinder chest expansion.
