sure there are extra full ones, look on ebay for cheap ones, or online shops, Ive seen plenty advertised while browsing!

Yes there are a lot of companies who make breast girths in ex.full. I would say that you might be better off buying a breastplate or a hunting plate instead of an elasticated breast girth. They offer quite a bit more stability.

thanks Tia, any idea of where to start, e.g. companys, web order sites ?

 

[Gentle_Warrior]

have had a quick search and can find nothing but elasticated ? Do you hae any examples of the ones you mentioned

I ran a quick search for you and apparently Kincade sell ex.F. I believe Kincade are not English leather though.....

Stubben certainly do, and I believe Amerigo do too, however their prices are steep.

I know this might sound silly, but you may have more luck at slightly cheaper prices by buying a western breastplate? If you buy a plain dark brown one then no-one will know it is western. US made ones are generally good quality harness leather and if you look on eBay you may find yourself a bargain by purchasing from the States.

Thanks Tia, you are a gem
