Dressage Girths Sternum Protection, black
QUITTPAD® Dressage Girth with Sternum Protection – Pressure-Relieving & Well-Designed
Thanks to its breathable 3D textile, the QUITTPAD® Dressage Girth with sternum protection offers optimal pressure distribution, climate comfort, and stress-free girthing – even for sensitive horses with girthiness or sensitive stomachs.
1. Pressure Relief & Climate Control
The air-permeable 3D textile prevents heat build-up in the girth area. The sensitive underside absorbs and wicks away moisture – for a comfortable climate under the girth.
2. Extra Wide Pad for Torso Support
The generously sized middle section protects the sternum and ensures even distribution of force. Ideal for round-ribbed horses or in case of a narrow girth position.
3. Elastic Girth Aid
A short elastic band (1 cm) on the left side makes re-girthing easier without allowing it to be overtightened – perfect for sensitive horses.
