Favourite product• Breastplate
"The breastplate is something very special for me. I was part of the development and was able to contribute my ideas. It is great that it fulfils the hoped for improvements in comparison to other breastplates. It offers my horses maximum shoulder freedom in cross-country as well as in jumping and they are not restricted at any moment either at the jump or in their movements in canter. You can feel that they are feeling comfortable."
