What should you look for in a western girth?

A Western saddle requires a specialised Western girth. It must be durable and fit well so as not to cause pain or injury to your horse. It must fit the horse's belly perfectly, be soft to the touch, offer sufficient freedom of movement, and keep the saddle securely in place. Western saddle girths often feature soft sheepskin, which reduces pressure and prevents uncomfortable chafing. It also helps to wick away excess moisture.
