Customer Reviews
Good design and durableUsed to convert dropped Western rigging to English Dressage girth. Designed well for holding up; 70 miles on it with slight hole stretching, not tearing. Haven't put enough miles on it to say it's 5 star worthy. I will likely buy it again if holes tear...so far so good.

Comments: These western to English converters work perfectly. I bought them to use on my bareback pad that had D rings for western rigging, but I wanted to use an English girth with it. They are lightweight, durable, and user-friendly. I've even use them on my endurance saddle.
From: Anonymous - Santa Rosa, California, USA
Comments: I was a little disappointed in them The straps are very thin and weak feeling, though I am sure the nylon straps are rated to be strong enough. They just seemed too wimpy. I used them for a couple of rides but went back to a latigo and western cinch.

Comments: These nylon girth converters are great if you just intend to us them on the front loop of your western or endurance saddle (i.e. not use the rear cinch set up). Otherwise, if you want a set up with something similar to a rear cinch, get the boithane ones sold here where you have one strap off each metal loop that connects to an English dressage girth.

Comments: Used these converters for approximately 1 month when the lightweight nylon began to stretch and fray. Checked them before and after every ride as safety is always a concern. Not recommended.
