Is the Tucker Big Bend Breast Collar worth it?

It is a solid choice if you want plain double-ply leather with brass hardware that won't rust out quickly. Riders who want tooled leather or a lighter nylon collar will find cheaper options.

What size horse does it fit?

It is listed as horse size, which fits most adult stock horses. Measure your horse's chest width before ordering, since there is no pony or draft size listed.

Does it come with the saddle specs shown?

No. The seat sizes, tree widths, horn and cantle in the listing are saddle specs and do not describe the collar. The collar itself is leather with brass rings.

How do I care for the leather and brass?

Wipe the leather with a damp cloth and use a leather conditioner a few times a year. Polish the brass rings with a brass cleaner to keep them from dulling.

When is the price lowest?

Tack prices tend to dip around spring and fall sales and during year-end promotions. Check the price history on this page before buying.

Our take on the Tucker Big Bend Breast Collar

The Tucker Big Bend Breast Collar is a western breast collar made of double-ply leather with brass hardware and brass rings. It has no tooling, so the leather and hardware carry the look. It is built for horse-size animals and is meant to keep a western saddle from sliding back on steep or fast work. The listing mixes in saddle specs (seat sizes, tree widths, horn and cantle), so check the collar's own fit before ordering.
