Acavallo Short Girth Sleeve Classic Gel 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 short candy-shaped girth sleeve in gel classic and sheepskin offers a superior riding experience, combining the non-slip and shock-absorbing properties of Acavallo gel with a sheepskin lining designed to relieve the pressure of the girth in contact with the delicate horse skin.
The advanced technical features of the gel ensure a stable grip of the girth, avoiding any unwanted movement during activity.
The sheepskin lining, which comes into contact with the horse's skin, not only provides an anti-chafing effect, but also prevents abrasions and blisters, ensuring a high degree of breathability and a pleasant feeling of comfort in a particularly sensitive area.
The attachment of the shell to the girth is facilitated by four practical hook-and-loop closure with strips with strips, ensuring quick and simple application.
The formulation of the Acavallo classic gel is hypoallergenic, non-toxic and does not react negatively with the skin, allowing the item to be safely used in contact with the horse.
