Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat makes Biothane such a great material for a flank cinch?Biothane is celebrated for its exceptional durability and low maintenance. Unlike traditional leather, it's highly resistant to water, sweat, and UV rays, meaning it won't crack, stretch, or degrade over time. It’s incredibly easy to care for, requiring only a quick wipe with water or mild soap to keep it clean and looking new, making it virtually maintenance-free.Why do I need a flank cinch, and how does it improve my riding?A flank cinch is a critical safety and performance feature. It’s designed to keep your saddle snug and prevent the cantle from tipping forward, especially during quick stops, turns, or when navigating hilly terrain. By stabilizing the saddle and distributing weight evenly, it significantly reduces saddle shifting, which is vital for activities like trail riding, roping, and reining, ensuring both rider confidence and horse safety.How do I ensure a proper fit for my horse, and will it be comfortable?For a proper fit, the flank cinch should be snug against your horse’s belly, not loose, but allowing for comfortable movement. A key element is the use of a hobble strap (not included) to connect it to the front cinch, preventing it from sliding back and becoming a "bucking strap." The Martin Saddlery Flank Cinch features a contoured design that specifically prevents interference with spurring, enhancing rider control and maximizing your horse's comfort.What about the overall construction quality and other materials used?Beyond the durable Biothane keepers, this flank cinch is crafted from heavy saddle skirting with a soft latigo liner, ensuring both robust strength and gentle contact. It’s expertly sewn with heavy nylon thread for long-term resilience. Each cinch features hand-rubbed, dyed edges and is fitted with high-quality roller buckles securely fastened with strong copper rivets. Proudly Made in the USA, this product embodies a commitment to superior craftsmanship and enduring quality.Product DetailsProduct Item Number (SKU): FC212CODimensions: 2 1/2 inches (width) x 35 inches (length)Material: Biothane keepers, Heavy Saddle Skirting, Latigo Liner, Copper RivetsUpgrade your riding gear today!
