Girths - Recommend a non elasticated, comfortable girth

[NativePonyLover]

Pretty much as title!

Pete can be a little cinchy & brace against the girth & I'm not sure his cheap girth is helping.

I don't want stupid amonts of money, but I'm looking for a girth that might feel a bit more comfy for him - he's a roly, poly chap so it needs to be non-elasticated otherwise I'll be under his belly before I've even got on!

Any recommendations would be fab

I use the "human girth" on my barrel shaped girl, its handy for tightening a bit at a time if she's trying to bloat out against it

I know you wanted a non-elasticated one, but I can't praise this girth highly enough http://www.bridlewayequestrian.com/shop/product.php?productid=16214&cat=272&page=1
It comes with 2 liners - a neoprene one and a fluffy fleece one, perfect for girthy horses. The neoprene one is grippy too so it should help keep the saddle in place. They are only £30 inc delivery.

Might be worth trying a girth sleeve on the girth you've got?

Ive got a stubben string girth on my welsh and i love it. Its soft, wide and grippy with no elastic, altho i do keep looking at the fairfax girths!!

Stubben string girths are amazing.

Tekna make nice cheap girths too

Another vote for Stubben string. My Master Saddler saddler recommended them. I used one (and a Professionals Choice Ventech) until I got my Fairfax as a pressie. Stubben string one washes nicely too(in a bag/pillowcase in washing machine) &dries quickly.

I have a Wintec Chafeless Girth. Its reasonable price and I've had no problems
