Comfy cinch!
After many years my cinch was wearing out. Purchased the Pro Choice Fleece cinch. I love how it absorbs sweat and is soft against my horse. I’m convinced he likes it too!

Replaces original PC cinch which no longer fits
FYI cinch is 5 "wide. I don't like the changes they made to these cinches. They have odd shaped buckles not the rounded shape shown. Don't like the velcro. If not on exactly right; wool bunches up under it as it curves around the horse.

Perfectly soft and secure
I bought this for my resident easy keeper and it fit well, was nice and soft and held my saddle in place perfectly. I'll definitely be buying another for my filly when it's her turn under saddle.

Love This Wool Cinch!
I have quite the cinch collection! You might say it is an obsession. I have anatomical cinches/shoulder relief, neoprene cinches, wool cinches, and mohair/alpaca cinches. The Professional's Choice SMx Comfort Merino Wool Western Cinch is by far my favorite wool cinch! Professional's Choice never fails to disappoint. Their products are fantastic. I love this wool cinch. The liner is 100% Merino wool and is moisture-wicking. It is soft for my horse, it cleans really easy, and is at a reasonable price point. The buckle-system comes off of the fleece with velcro, making it super easy to clean. Although they recommend hand or hose washing, I have machine washed on delicate and air-dried. The roller bar on the mounting side of the cinch makes it easier to cinch the saddle, and the overlapping fleece keeps the metal from rubbing the sides of my horse. That roller help get that cinch snug without much effort and no worry about pinching my horse. My first fleece cinch has lasted for close to 3 years, and I'm still using it without a problem although I have purchased a replacement as a spare. I was going to get a different wool cinch costing considerably more. However, I ordered this one and I am very pleased.

Only cinch we use on our horses.
These are just great. We never have to worry about our horses' comfort with them. And they wear like iron! And you just un-velcro the wool, throw it in the wash and no more stinky tack room, either.

Great cinch!
I bought this because I wanted a cinch where my mare is protected from the rings and the ease of removing the fleece to clean. Don't need to cinch up as tight as the fleece helps keep the saddle in place. I like a cinch with a keeper for the off billet. It's a little stiff due to the nylon but not enough to cause any problems. Also was able to get in a size 26" for my little 13.2 mare.

Looks good but
My horse is most comfortable with a wool cinch, and I like the concept of velcro off wool so i can wash it without the buckles. BUT the narrower buckle makes it harder to snug up the cinch, especially from on the horse. Next time i will get the old-fashioned round buckles.

Nice girth; easy to clean
I love these girths. They looked good and the wool portion can be easily removed from the cinch to wash. Cleans up great! I have two to rotate so I can keep the wool nice and clean.

Excellent fit and comfortabl
I wanted to change out my cinch and researched this cinch - it has been great! After first ride super soaked and dirty- easy to remove- I threw in the washing machine dried in the sun, looked great reattached to cinch perfectly! Hardware is heavy duty. Highly recommend!

This thing is amazing!
My mare simply will not tolerate a regular cinch with ring ends... This girth is beautifully padded end to end including the rings. The girth has a tiny bit of stretch and a roller buckle on the tightening up end. The merino wool is thick. There is no slippage when riding. best of all the girth hand washes up beautifully. Put in a bucket of warm water and Woolite, it washed and rinsed clean. Squeezed as much water out as possible.. I thought it would take days to dry, but drip drying overnight and hanging out in the sun the next day, it is ready to use. to a big chore to wash this at all.. thinking I might want to have two to be able to rotate their use. Awesome product!

Love this cinch!
I love this cinch! You can easily remove the wool pad to throw it in the wash without undoing your rigging on the saddle. The wool is soft, doesn't rub, and washes up beautifully! I bought a second one for my other horse.

What a difference!
My gelding seems to be very thin skinned and cinchy so I got this cinch. Wow, just wow!

Great cinch
So glad I bought this cinch. My horse was getting sores with 2 other cinchs I rode him in, but since I bought this one they have healed up nicely. It is well made, a little light on the padding, but overall a nice cinch. Easy to remove and wash too!

Super Plysh
I have a very sensitive mare that pryer to me obviously was overly cinched and hurt. I have been working with her with this cinch and so much better. No more trying to bite or kick when I am cinching. This is a very nice product and seems to fit true to size.

I bought this to replace the professional choice neoprene cinch that was pulling hair out of my horse. He seems better now.
