Soft leather, the rubber whilst fine has lots of grip even when wet. Will only buy these reins
These reins are nice quality and comfy to hold but I was disappointed that the rubber area wasn't longer, there is a large amount of plain leather at the buckle end which I find i am holding when working in a longer frame which I've never experienced with previous reins of the same size.
Love my Henry James Bridle. I particularly like the fact that it is comfortable for the horse and that you can buy individual pieces. This was important as sadly I had to say goodbye to my large warmblood recently and his TB successor only needed a new noseband instead of a whole new bridle to make it fit. I decided to replace my reins with a different style for my new horse and these look and feel as good as the previous ones. It’s good to see Henry James products in saddler outlets giving more people the opportunity to experience the quality of the range. Highly recommended.
Super smart beautiful leather & most importantly super grip
I have been searching for a set of soft pony size leather + rubber reins for my daughter forever! Our instructor recommended these - and they are absolutly perfect - beautiful quality, and supple from day 1! Excellent quality and service !
