How do I choose a mohair cinch size?
If it’s slipping, your cinch is too loose. Make sure that your saddle fits- some horses get girthy/cinchy if they have sore backs or if in the past they have had the girth or cinch tightened all the way quickly. Do it in at least three tightenings- the first just snug enough to keep the saddle from falling off is she shakes, the second, almost tight enough to mount, and the third, tight enough to walk and trot with. Remember to always check your cinch again before your canter or lope, as by this time the saddle has settled more on the back and the cinch or girth is often a little loose. If she’s crabby about having it tightened anyway, she’s going to have to get over it and you’re going to have to tighten it securely anyway because it is way more dangerous to ride a horse with a loose cinch or girth than it would be to ride them bareback. As for the mohair cinch, I would go with maybe one size smaller than you usually use, so likely a 30″ would work. Try it on and If it’s too big/small
