Indiana Kick Pad Girth with Both Side Elastic & Roller Buckle - Black

The Indiana Kick Pad Girth is a premium leather jumping girth designed to combine belly protection, horse comfort and secure saddle stability during jumping and athletic ridden work.

Crafted from soft, premium vegetable-tanned leather, the girth features a broad kick pad / belly guard that provides additional coverage beneath the horse. This is particularly useful when jumping, where the horse's front hooves or studs may come close to the belly as the legs fold over a fence.

High-quality elastic at both ends provides flexibility and easier adjustment, while durable stainless steel roller buckles allow the girth straps to move smoothly during tightening and loosening.

Finished in classic Black, this is a smart premium option for showjumping, competition and regular jumping training.

Kick Pad / Belly Guard Design

A kick pad girth, also commonly called a belly guard girth, has a broader central section than a conventional girth.

This provides additional coverage beneath the horse and can help protect the belly from accidental contact with the front hooves or studs as the horse folds its legs over a jump.

This makes the Indiana Kick Pad Girth particularly well suited to showjumping and jumping training.

Double-Sided Elastic

High-quality elastic inserts at both ends provide flexibility as the horse moves and breathes.

Having elastic on both sides also allows the rider to adjust the girth from either side of the saddle.

Stainless Steel Roller Buckles

The stainless steel roller buckles help the girth straps move smoothly through the buckles, making adjustment easier.

Stainless steel also provides durable, practical hardware for regular equestrian use.
