ABSTRACT:
A saddle cinch or girth is a strong wide fibrous or leather band used to secure a saddle on a horse. A problem with cinches or girths is that they often wear a horse's skin raw. A non-rub cover for saddle cinches or girths is disclosed which comprises a tubular rubber sleeve which is soft and elastic and of sufficient thickness to prevent abrasive contact. The sleeve has openings on opposite sides at the middle to allow the girth rings to protrude. The sleeve is easily slid over cinch or girth and optionally the end buckles to protect against abrasion. The girth rings protruding through the openings permit the saddle straps to be fastened thereto. Another embodiment of the invention uses a protective sleeve of the same material and shape but slit longitudinally and having longitudinally extending velcro fasteners extending along the slit edges to permit the sleeve to be formed at the place of use.
