Looking for a girth elasticated both ends. Preferably something with not to much give in the elastic. Have the shires one at the moment, too
stretchy.
Was thinking maybe Harry Dabbs or something similar.

Ventech Professional’s Choice. Though it might have too much give for you.

I’ve got one on my barrel-shaped pony and it’s the only girth I don’t get some degree of slippage with. I tried non-elasticated and didn’t think it was as effective as the Ventech.

I like the Ventech ones too .. but also have the Wintec Chafless too .. but my 1st choice is Mohair cord one which is shaped so it's widest part is in the centre .. it has natural give.

Dabbs, or, although it's not elasticated as such, I recommend it just as highly and it does have some give, the Stubben cord girths. The cheaper the girth generally the stretchier the elastic. Ventech is rather stretchy but is grippy so you may get away with it, and many love it, but I'd prefer firmer elastic and less sticky grip.
