My horse came with a pair of reins that are rubber but smooth without "bobbles" like regular rubber reins. I absolutely love them but now they are falling apart. Does anybody know what make they might be/where i can get a replacement pair.

Also if there are a few kinds on the market does anybody know which are the best value for money?? Am on a student budget so don't have huge amounts to spend on a pair of reins!
 
I got some from Robinsons Ashton store, not sure if in catagloge.Very 'grippy' with gloves and bare hands, and feel as have a bit of 'give'
Were only about £20, love them for every day but not very posh as have buckles not billets
 
Billets are the leather part that goes round the bit, the term is also sometimes applied to girth straps, it really means a length of leather or a strap.So you have either buckled up billets or hook stud billets.

so sorry for my error, should have said studs in order to be 100% correct

Wouldnt worry,I think most people know just what you mean when you say buckle reins and billet reins

The only rubber ones I have seen without the bumps are very old.....nice that they are selling them that way now since they are always so much more comfy once worn down a bit!
 
They sound like my Eventa reins. Be warned though - mine only survived about a year of daily use. Now they have worn flat and shiny and lost all their grip.
