I ride an all-purpose english saddle and having come upon this problem went to a mohair string girth. You can purchase them thru Stateline Tack. They are only about $15.00 and work wonderfully. (and they are washable) Just make sure you order the one with the roller buckles to save wear and tear on your straps.

My horse collects skin folds behind the elbow, in front of his girth, which often become hairless and irritated. I have tried various saddles, many girths, breastcollar and crupper, with only limited help. All the saddles use a 24"-26" dressage girth. We train going up and down fairly steep hills.
I would be grateful for any ideas or suggestions.
