Elite Veteran Posts: 762 Location: NC	Im sure this topic has been covered a ton but what girth/cinch does everyone like? Also was told that if buying mohair to go a size down. Is that correct? For example my mares a 32 in a neoprene so I would get a 30 in a mohair? Got a new horse so was thinking about giving him my mares girth and getting her a new one. He has one but its older and i feel like kind of worn out. TIA

Do you get a size smaller in mohair or size the same as neoprene? (shes a 32 in neoprene so would she be a 30?) I dont want to have to buy have it shipped to ship back.
