This mecate has a firm twist on a horsehair core, good body and a very soft hand. It is 22 feet long. Let this 5/8″ 6 Strand Horse Mane-Hair Mecate #DK5 be your ultimate horse hair rope!
We will be happy to tie this mecate to a bosal if you purchase one but you may need to adjust the number of wraps to fit your horse after you receive it. We have various colors available including sorrels, greys, blacks and whites. Please call 832-529-9226 for color availability. If we don’t hear from you, we will choose the color.
How it works: Horse mane-hair mecates are widely used in the California-vaquero tradition. A horse responds to the feel of the horse hair on their neck better than to many other materials. The traditional material and patterns also look exceptionally good on our horses. This is a superior quality professional mecate.

5/8″ XX Harness Leather Split Reins #ASR3

These reins are hand made from heavy harness leather and are 7 to 7 1/2 feet long and 5/8 inch wide which gives you enough length to pitch your horse the slack when you lay your hand down. These are short enough to ride our little cutters with or ride with contact or tune on your horse when needed and heavy enough to show in.
Crafting: Heavy harness leather bridle reins are very special to us. Every effort is made to give you the best rein you have ever had. We work closely with the tannery to get only the finest dense, tight fibered leather available. We cut the reins in pairs, hand edge, hand rub, oil and hand rub them again for a great feel before we ship them to you. This tight fibered harness leather will last for years. Please feel free to call 832-529-9226 and we will “talk reins”.
