Horse Girths
Horse girths cut and shaped for comfort and performance. Browse anatomical, leather, monoflap, sheepskin, and stud girths from CWD, Butet, and Kentucky.
Match the girth to the job
A horse jumping in studs needs protection before anything else: a tucked foreleg brings studded shoes close to the belly, which is what CWD's belly guard girths and Kentucky's stud girth are for. For flatwork and everyday jumping, anatomic cuts free the shoulder; sheepskin suits thin-skinned and girth-shy horses; plain leather remains the traditional choice. Most horses in regular work fit one of those four descriptions, and the page is organised around them.
Three makers, three constructions
Kentucky holds the widest share of the page, with sheepskin, stud and anatomic designs. CWD treats the girth as engineering: the Flexmotion jumping girth and its belly guard girths come from the same performance-led thinking as its saddles. Butet keeps to leather, cut and finished the traditional way. The three do not copy each other, which is the point of stocking all three. Equijump distributes CWD and Butet in Ireland, so both makers' girths come as official stock.
Get the fit right before the fabric
Length first: a girth should fasten evenly on both sides with room left to adjust. The most reliable guide is the girth the horse already goes well in; match it unless a saddle fitter has said otherwise. Changing girth type, sheepskin to anatomic, say, can change how the same length sits, so when in doubt send what you know to info@equijumpltd.com and we will settle the size before you order.
