Re: [RC] White hair - girth buckle? - rides2farHas anyone had a horse that developed white hair where the girth buckle sits, and if so, what was the solution? I got in my box that my saddle came back from Ortho-Flex in. The cool thing was that when you used to send your saddle to them for repair, they'd pack it in scraps of wool from saddle pads and the foam material that they cut shims from. Great stuff. I cut about a 5" x 3" rectangle out of the shim material, then glued it to that nice heavy wool fleece with cloth backing. I made 2 holes about an inch apart through the whole thing and ran a shoestring through which I tie through the 2 dressage buckles with the wool towards the horse. Looks like crap. Works great. :-) I tried leather laces for the string first but they got stiff and hard to remove. I like the shoe string. Very washable.
