Leather Noseband/Tiedown #T8
Price range: $70.00 through $142.00
Description: The Leather Noseband Tiedown is made of 1 inch harness leather and lined with burgundy latigo leather. The leather has been edged, hand rubbed, treated with Neatsfoot Oil and hand rubbed again. The buckle is stainless steel with a leather keeper. The leather beneath the buckle is stitched together to keep the buckle in place when you adjust it between horses. The ring is also stainless steel. Shown without a tiedown strap but is available with your choice of a #ZG 1 inch or a 3/4 inch Leather Tie Down Strap or #ZH Nylon Tie Down Strap (see dropdown to order).
How it works: This is the softest noseband I make and will work really well on a sensitive horse or one that wants to use the noseband for balance rather than pushing on it or leaning into it. A very well made noseband that will hold up to many years of hard use.

Sliding Running Martingale #CM3
$95.00Description: The Sliding Running Martingale #CM3 has a 3/4 inch adjustable neck strap made of heavy harness leather. Each end of the neck strap is stitched to a stainless steel ring. An adjustable tie down strap is sewn to the center of the neck strap ring on one end and snapped to the cinch on the other end. A second snap with a ring-end is snapped to the opposite side of the center ring of the neck strap. A heavy 1/4 inch nylon cord runs through the ring end of the snap. The nylon cord is 18 inches long and has rein rings at each end. An 1/2 inch latigo leather safety hobble strap with a slit on one end runs from the neck strap through the gullet of the saddle and over the horn. This safety hobble strap prevents the neck strap from sliding to the ears.
How it works: Running martingales are very useful tools to aid horses in learning proper head position as they learn collection. With this martingale, the sliding action of the nylon cord, occurring when the rider pulls on either rein, helps your horse maintain a correct frame as his head turns. If adjusted correctly a martingale does not force the head to stay in any given position but allows the horse a guide for head placement through automatic release of pressure on the reins when correct head placement is achieved. This can make it easier for a horse to reach a more collected frame over time by allowing assistance with head position as the rider teaches the horse to drive from behind.

A good rule of thumb for adjustment is to allow horse to stand comfortably, attach snap to cinch D ring and extend ring straps until they reach the throatlatch.

Kick Chain #KC1
$67.00Description: The Kick Chain #KC1 is made of doubled and stitched 1 3/4 inch burgundy latigo. It has a leather cuff that fastens to a rectangle to secure it to the fetlock. The rectangle, dee and 12 inch chain are all smooth stainless steel. This kick chain is made to fit the front or back fetlock of any size horse.
How it works: This is an ideal aid for horses that want to kick or paw while in the stall or trailer, or paw while tied up. It can be fastened to either a front or hind fetlock. Most horses will stop pawing or kicking after a short time with the kick chain but a small percentage will need to wear it indefinitely. Generally, one kick chain can be used for a session and then transferred to the other front or back fetlock for a session and the problem will be solved. Occasionally a horse that has been pawing or kicking for a long time will need to wear a kick chain on both legs at the same time.
This is sold as a single kick chain. If you need more than 1 please order additional kick chains in the ”quantity” box.
This is not a tool to be used for teaching horses to not kick at people.
Shown on a horse that is 15.1 hands and 1100 pounds.
