anyone seen these sorts of reins before?

[woolly]

Has anybody used these before? I have a friend who swears by them and wondered if anyone has had any other personal experiences

a girl at a previous yard used 2 lead reins!

I rode with them in the states- wasn't a massive fan as they are very thick and difficult to hold if you want to ride english style and maintain a level of contact.

These appear quite thin and manageable....but thanks for the input... really like the idea of separate reins.

Why not just buy a pair of split reigns? What would you be using them for?

Yeah, I think Meg is thinking of Mecate which are thick horsehair reins used commonly with bosals.

These ones you are looking at - I have them but mine are gaming reins, so only one very, very short rein. They are thin and feel like they have been woven with silk so are very comfortable on your hands.

I ride with two leather split reins for regular riding, each one being either 8ft or 10ft long - I'm a sucker for my long reins

. It feels really weird when I ride English now because the reins are stuck together LOL!!

My gaming rein is only about 5ft long in all, so super short so as to ride quickly with only one hand on the rein.
