Professionals Choice Girth... Worth the money?

[EquestrianFairy]

Im debating (seriously debating) buying the new professionals choice SMX girth for my v.v.v. sensitve lad.
Has anyone used these? Are they worth the money? Do they really prevent slippage?

Thanks all.

YES ! I use one for my gp saddle which would slip with leather and cotton but doesnt with pro choice. Mine comes apart so I can was the material in the machine and the grippy bit by hand. I paid £66 for mine but Ive seen cheaper.

It doesnt rub either, horse seems to like it.

Have been using these girths for years on my fine skinned Arab and he is fine with them....they definately stop saddle moving too.

Yes a friend of mine uses one her very sentive mare. Makes a lot of difference to her.

I must have been unlucky with mine then as it rubbed my mare quite badly! I have heard various other positive reports about them!

Love mine! Tried all the bloomin girth sleeves as well as other girths and this is the only one that resolved the rubbing issue.
