Anatomica girths

By | Tips | No Comments

Anatomica also has girths in their assortment, to perfectly align your horse with your saddle. It is important that the girth is comfortable for your horse and that the girth is easy in use.

All Anatomica girths vary in shape and in the effect that the girth has on your horse:

  • Anatomica girth neoprene:

This is a standard straight girth. This girth is ideal for horses that quickly get small scrapes and wounds in the armpits. The material is very soft and easy to wash in a washing machine or by hand. The difference with other neoprene girths is that there is an extra piece of nylon in the girth. This ensures that the girth will not fold as quickly. Does your saddle slide forward quickly, because your horse is built a bit more round? Then this girth is not suitable for you.

  • Anatomica girth model I:

This is an anatomically shaped, symmetrical, leather girth. This model is ideal for horses with a round belly. This girth prevents the saddle form sliding forward onto the neck of the horse. This girth is a bit more narrow in the ends, to prevent the horse from getting wounded behind the front leg. The middle of the girth is wider, in order to achieve a better pressure distribution. The girth has an elastic band on either end, which only stretches when the horse needs it.

  • Anatomica girth model II:

This is an anatomically shaped, symmetrical, leather girth. This model is designed for standard built horses. The middle part is a bit wider for optimal pressure distribution, but the girth is cut back at the armpit to prevent injuries. The girth has a small piece of elastic at the buckles, which stretches slightly when the horse needs it.

  • Anatomica girth model III with elastic on the ends:

This is an anatomically shaped, symmetrical, leather girth. This model is designed for extra stability of the saddle. The anatomically shaped model gives the horse a lot of freedom of movement at the armpits. The material at the armpits is also made to be extra soft, so that the horse does not get injured quickly. The girth is anatomically shaped at the front, that goes slightly forward between the front legs. This allows the side of the girth to remain a bit wider, which gives the extra stability. The girth has elastic at the buckles, which only stretches when the horse needs it.

  • Anatomica girth model III without elastic on the ends:

This is an anatomically shaped, symmetrical, leather girth. This model is designed for extra stability of the saddle. The anatomically shaped model gives the horse a lot of freedom at the armpits. The material at the armpits is also extra soft, so that the horse is not easily injured. The girth is anatomically shaped at the front, that goes slightly forward between the front legs. This allows the side of the girth to remain a bit wider, which gives the extra stability. The girth has no elastic at the buckles.

  • Anatomica girth model IV without elastic:

This is an anatomically shaped, symmetrical, leather girth. This girth gives the same effect as girth model III, but the tip at the front legs is somewhat narrower. This is ideal for horses that are a bit narrower between the front legs, and therefore have less space. The girth has no elastic at the buckles.

Anatomica Basic-Line Cygnus Long Roll

By | Tips | No Comments

The Anatomica philosophy is to gain the perfect connection between the horse and the rider.

This is made possible by the design of this saddle. The Anatomica Basic-Line Cygnus Long Roll is a dressage saddle which gives the rider the maximum leg support. Because of the long knee rolls, this saddle is perfectly made for people with longer legs.

The knee rolls has been attached to the saddle skirt in 90 degree angle. This gives the rider’s leg a better connection with the horse.

These knee rolls give the rider optimal freedom of movement, because only the upper leg and the knee is kept in place. Riders who tend to pull their knees up a bit can profit from this model.

The saddle has a deep and comfortable seat and is used on several professional stables, because it easily fits on different horses.

This saddle can be customised. For example:

  • The saddle skirts can be custom made longer or shorter;
  • This saddle can be custom made to fit your horse perfectly;
  • Available in much different leather types;
  • Available in much different piping colours and stitching colours.
