How do I properly care for my Equi-Soft® girth?

Like the saddle, the Equi-Soft® girth is cleaned with leather soap and leather care. To do this, the rubber rings can be moved slightly upwards. The suede parts can be wiped with a damp cloth, they require no further care.

ATTENTION: we regularly receive Equi-Soft® girths with severely hardened leather that can cause rubbing or discomfort to the horse. Equi-Soft® girths must NOT be washed in the washing machine. 

The pads of Equi-Soft® girths can be cleaned as follows:
  • Neoprene padding: machine wash, gentle cycle 30 degrees. We recommend a protective bag and strongly advise you not to wash any other Velcro fasteners in the wash. The pad can be air-dried without much exposure to sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
  • Leather upholstery: The leather upholstery is cleaned in the same way as the Equi-Soft® girth, using leather soap and leather care. The padding must not be washed in the washing machine. The upholstery can be air-dried without much exposure to sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
  • Lambskin upholstery: Hand wash with a suitable lambskin detergent. The upholstery can be air-dried without much exposure to sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
