CARE INSTRUCTIONS for Equi Ergo Fit Mohair Girths:
– Use your hand to remove all the rough dirt, such as little stones or soil/sand particles, which you collected during the ride. DON’T BRUSH, ESPECIALLY NOT WITH COARSE BRUSHES! – it damages mohair cords and shortens their life span which can endanger your safety!
– Rinse the tack with water (garden hose or shower/faucet) and remove the dirt and/or horse’s sweat. DON’T USE HIGH-PRESSURE CLEANERS!
– USE COLD or LUKEWARM WATER! – mohair is equally sensitive as sheep wool.
– Use your hands to gently rub the tack in a bucket of water to which you might have added a bit of the gentle wool detergent.
– Rinse your tack well with clean water.
– Dry the mohair tack slowly on a flat surface (we recommend you put a towel under it) and DON’T expose it to the direct heat, sun, heating devices or fire!
– NEVER MACHINE WASH OR DRY YOUR MOHAIR TACK!
If you use your mohair tack daily, consider having two pieces of it so you can use it interchangeably – in this case you can wash your horse’s sweat right after your ride and use the other piece while the first one is drying up.
– ACTIVELY PREVENT THE OCCURRENCE OF MOTHS AND RODENTS, as they can damage your mohair tack to the point of being unusable – think about riding safety!
REVIEW
I needed a new girth for Takida and decided to try the Equi Ergo Fit Mohair Girth. I am absolutely thrilled with it!! Fits Takida like a glove and the thing that impressed me the most was that even in 20 plus degrees and nearly 2 hours in the forest he came back all sweaty and there wasn’t any sweat under the girth, not one mark!! Love it…Kim and Takida x
