Proper fitting of the cotton girth is essential to ensure saddle stability, freedom of movement for the horse, and its comfort during work. Thanks to its natural suppleness, cotton easily adapts to the horse's anatomy, provided the size and positioning are appropriate.

The length of the girth should allow the buckles to align with the bottom of the billets, without riding up too high or being too close to the elbow. A girth that is too short creates excessive pressure points, while a girth that is too long compromises the stability of the saddle.

The girth should be positioned naturally in the horse's girth groove, without being artificially pulled forward or backward. Cotton, a breathable material, is particularly suitable for sensitive horses, but it is essential to ensure that the girth lies flat, without wrinkles or twists, to prevent chafing.

Girth tightening should be progressive and symmetrical. It is recommended to tighten alternately on each side, in several stages, to respect the horse's rib cage and promote even pressure distribution. Once tightened, the girth should be snug without being excessive: you should be able to fit two fingers between the girth and the horse's belly.

Finally, after a few minutes of walking, a slight adjustment may be necessary, as cotton tends to settle with warmth and movement. Regular checks of the fitting, especially for horses undergoing morphological changes, ensure comfort, performance, and durability of the equipment.
