Fine me nice leather running reins

[lizziebell]

Looking for a pair of running (draw) reins. Basically I want the ones that go from the side girth straps - but all I can find are the ones that run between the legs to the girth.

Anyone know where I can buy a nice leather pair?

John whitaker have lovely ones and they are shown going to the side and not underneath?

Thanks. I looked at those and they do show them going to the sides, but the description says they have a clip on the ends, so not sure how they are supposed to clip the the girth straps, as normally there is a loop which you slide over.

I wanted some full leather side reins and some new stirrup leathers so I asked my very nice local saddler who repairs all my tack to make me some. I have found that it's cheaper a lot of the time to have things made up from scratch. The leather is always top quality and they are happy to adjust anything. I am sure that making up some running reins would be just as easy. Just a bit of food for thought!

My leather draw/running reins were made by Nick Creaton I think. They have a buckled loop on each end and a normal rein buckle in the centre, with rolled leather where they go through the bit.

Try any polo tack shop - like Tally Ho and Roxtons. There are probably cheaper options though!
