What is this breast collar made of?

It is made from chocolate skirting leather, a thick, firm leather used for heavy-duty tack. The straps carry antique turquoise dots and turquoise lacing.

The breast collar is 1-1/2 inches wide across the chest strap.

Is it for show or everyday riding?

The turquoise dots and lacing make it a decorative piece suited to Western show, parade and trail use. It is not a plain working strap.

Will the leather be stiff at first?

Skirting leather is firm when new and typically softens with use and conditioning. Expect a break-in period before it drapes comfortably.

Does it come in other colors?

This version is chocolate leather with antique turquoise accents. Check the buy box for what is currently offered.

How do I care for the turquoise lacing?

Wipe the leather clean and condition it as you would other skirting leather tack. Keep the lacing dry and check it for wear, since it sits where reins and hands pass.
