Leather English or Western Breast collar:
Give your
mount a soft-touch with a soft-sided breast collar. These breast collars
begin with an inner core of nylon webbing that makes this collar strong
enough to pull a car. The core is padded with soft neoprene foam, which
gives the breast collar soft cushioned edges that can’t cut into your
horse. The bottom of the breast collar then is covered with supple
moisture-resistant garment leather that can’t become sweat-soaked, so
this breast collar needs only a fraction of the maintenance required by
other fine tack. The top of this breast collar is covered with top
quality grain leather. Because of its construction this breast collar
doesn’t cause the friction and galling when your horse gets sweaty and
wet. A strap that goes over the neck is standard to help maintain the
position, which classifies this as a Pulling Breast Collar as
shown in the photos. This allows your horse maximum freedom of movement.
This breast collar goes English or western. Many western riders order
the English because it’s super strong, yet very conservative in overall
appearance. The English collar is 1" wide, soft and pliable, tough and
carefree. The arms on the small are 18 inches and 21 inches on the
large. The western is 2" wide and can be tooled. The arms are 16
inches on the small and 19 inches on the large. Stainless steel snaps
are provided at all ends for quick attachment to the saddle and the
girth dees. Available in small or large size. The small will go up to a
medium and the large down to a medium. State leather color.

Item # BC-W (Western) - Price $150.00
To
properly fit the breast collar.
Adjust the
breast collar so it can pulled it away from the horse’s shoulder on one
side 3-4" inches. This allows the animal's shoulder to move freely forward. Use the neck
tug (the strap that goes over the horse's withers) to adjust the height
of the "arms" that lay along the shoulder slope, offering a comfortable
fit and maximum support. These arms come together in the center of the
chest and are connected to a center strap that connects the breast
collar to the to the dee on the girth, between the horse's front legs. This center
strap will keep the breast collar from moving up, and choking the horse
and will allow your horse to eat and drink comfortably. Correctly fit this strap
should hang down no more than 1 to 2 inches when the horse is standing.
The over all position of the breast collar should be as shown in the
photos above.
