Fit & Sizing

This Western leather breast collar comes in adjustable standard horse size. Detailed measurements are provided to help riders compare the breast collar with their horse and existing Western tack before purchasing.

• Shoulder Strap Width: 2 1/2 inches at the widest point.
• Shoulder Strap Length: 15 inches on each side, measured leather fold to leather fold, excluding metal rings.
• Saddle Tug Width: 3/4 inch on each side.
• Saddle Tug Adjustment: 10 to 13 inches on each side.
• Lower Cinch Strap Width: 3/4 inch.
• Lower Cinch Strap Adjustment: 16 1/2 to 19 inches, excluding the snap hook.
• Cinch Strap Snap Hook: 2 inches long, measured separately.
• Horse Size: Adjustable standard horse size.

Important Measurement Information: Each shoulder strap measures 15 inches of leather from fold to fold. Metal rings are excluded, so this is not an overall ring-to-ring measurement. The adjustable lower cinch strap measures 16 1/2 to 19 inches without its separate 2-inch snap hook.

Since horses vary in chest width, shoulder proportions, and overall build, standard horse size does not guarantee a universal fit. Compare these measurements with your horse and saddle attachment points before ordering.

For correct positioning, adjust both saddle tugs evenly and confirm that the lower cinch strap allows comfortable movement without interfering with the horse's front legs.

Traditional Black Leather with Detailed Floral Tooling

The distinguishing feature of this breast collar is its detailed Western floral tooling. Decorative leaves, flowing floral patterns, and carved leather detailing give the black finish a rich, traditional appearance associated with classic Western leatherwork.

The intricate tooling makes this design particularly appealing to riders who appreciate craftsmanship in their working equipment. It complements Western ranch tack, roping gear, barrel racing setups, and pleasure riding equipment.

Although the floral design provides decorative character, this breast collar is intended as functional working horse tack rather than a display-only accessory.

A dependable Western riding setup begins with equipment that fits correctly and works together. Explore our Western saddle cinches for secure saddle support during everyday riding and demanding ranch activities.

A properly adjusted breast collar works alongside the saddle and cinch to help resist backward saddle movement. It provides additional support but does not replace correct saddle fitting or cinch adjustment.

Leather Care and Maintenance

After riding, remove accumulated dirt, dust, and sweat with a soft cloth. Allow damp leather to dry naturally away from direct heat and prolonged sunlight.

Apply a suitable leather conditioner when needed to help maintain flexibility and preserve the black finish. Avoid excessive conditioning and test any new leather treatment on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Inspect the adjustable straps, buckles, rings, stitching, and cinch attachment before riding. Replace worn or damaged components before demanding activities such as roping or barrel racing.
