Sustainably made, the Oaklyn Wool Lined Hunter Girth is constructed for the rigors of everyday use while still turning heads. The girth features stainless steel hardware for longevity and double elastic at both ends to evenly distribute pressure. Traditional contrast fancy stitching turns heads and is a nod to the classic Hunter ring. The removable wool liner is made from a signature blend of dense wool and polyester for maximum comfort and resilience. The wool fibers wick both moisture and heat away from your horse’s body and are naturally antibacterial and antimicrobial.

Oaklyn’s state of the art girths are made of recycled polyester, harvested from plastic soda and water bottles, (15 bottles make one girth) and humanely sourced wool. The wool is obtained from American farmers who adhere to strict animal husbandry and land management standards, ensuring both the sheep and earth are treated humanely and respectfully. While the polyester used in Oaklyn’s girths is much more energy efficient and reduces greenhouse gas emissions, the quality is not sacrificed as these girths are durable and beautiful.

How to size for an AP/CC saddle
To ensure you order the correct girth size for your horse, it is essential to correctly measure the size of the girth you need.

Place your saddle and any pads (i.e. saddle pads, half pads, risers, etc.) you regularly use on your horse.
With a soft/flexible measuring tape have a friend hold one end of the measuring tape up to the second or third billet hole of your saddle while you reach under and grab the other end of the tape and extend it up to the second or third billet hole on your side. Make sure the tape or rope is flat against and in line with your girth placement (not too tight).
Now, note the inches on your measuring tape. This is the size girth you will need. You want to have at least two billet holes available above and at least one billet hole available below the buckles to move to if required.

To extend the life of your girth, proper care is important and we recommend that you follow thse care instructions and tips provided below.

Wipe down the spine as needed or hose off with cold water and hang to dry. We recommend letting the fleece liner dry out, then brushing it out between rides (remember it is a wool blend!). Brushing your fleece liner does a great job at keeping it looking fresh each ride. When the fleece liner finally needs washing, separate it from the webbing, machine wash cold with mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat or lay flat to dry. Gently brush the fleece liner with a wire bristled brush to restore it to its original fluff and you’re back in business.
