Acavallo Western Girth Sleeve Gel Classic Sheepskin
Acavallo girths are available in dressage and jumping configurations. Dressage girths are shorter (measured in cm) while jumping/GP girths are longer.
How to Measure for a Girth
With the saddle on your horse, measure from the middle hole of the girth straps on one side, under the belly, to the middle hole on the other side. This gives you the ideal girth length — the girth should fasten in the middle holes for maximum adjustment range.

Acavallo Girth Features
Acavallo's anatomical girths feature shaped designs that follow the horse's natural contours, reducing pressure points. Gel models include Acavallo's signature Classic Gel technology for additional shock absorption and anti-slip properties. Sheepskin-lined models provide extra comfort and help prevent rubs.
The western girth sleeve in Acavallo® gel classic with sheepskin is an innovative solution designed to ensure maximum comfort and well-being for your horse during western riding sessions.
This sleeve combines the extraordinary non-slip and cushioning properties of the Acavallo® gel classic with a sheepskin lining, creating a perfect combination of technology and tradition.
The shaping of the sleeve is specially designed to adapt to the morphology of the horse during riding, guaranteeing perfect fit and even weight distribution.
The technical features of the gel used make it possible to avoid any movement of the girth, ensuring optimal stability and unparalleled comfort.
The sheepskin lining, in contact with the horse's skin, offers relief from possible chafing, abrasions and blisters, providing exceptional breathability.
The attachment of the sleeve to the girth is made quick and easy thanks to the four hook-and-loop closure with strips, guaranteeing a secure and firm hold during each movement.
The Acavallo® gel classic is renowned for being hypoallergenic, non-toxic and compatible with the horse's skin, making this item suitable for direct contact without unwanted reactions.
