Harness Sets

Fitting a harness 

The fitting of harness is not an exact science. This is due to many variables: 

  • Variation in the horse/pony’s breed and build
  • Variation of horse/pony’s condition (thin/fat/fit).
  • Customers’ idea of a good fit; some like straps tight, others loose etc,
  • Regional differences in harness style or fashion.
  • Design differences in vehicles (eg: length of shafts or pole length, or position of swingletree) affect both the length of traces and reins.)
  • Inaccuracies in measurements undertaken by the customer (ie: where the nose measurement is taken.)

Many of the above variables are beyond the suppliers’ control.

Zilco & Webster harness sets have built in a generous adjustment to all sizes.

Equifor has a free exchange policy of any parts that are not the correct size, when you buy a set of Webster harness. This ensures that your harness is a safe and comfortable fit for your specific animal.
