Equi-Soft® Lambskin Girth Sleeves from Mattes: Highest quality and comfort

The lambskin sleeves for the Equi-Soft® girth can be replaced in seconds thanks to the practical Velcro system.

Benefits of lambskin

Made from genuine, natural lambskin, these sleeves provide a skin-friendly, breathable, and hypoallergenic surface. The soft material has shock-absorbing properties and ensures maximum comfort and protection, even with intensive use. With proper care, the lambskin remains supple and fully functional, and its superior quality is maintained even with frequent use.

Manufactured to the highest standards, Made in Europe

Equi-Soft® lambskin sleeves are produced by Mattes, a renowned company with many years of experience in manufacturing high-quality equestrian equipment. The lambskins are carefully selected in Australia according to strict criteria and handcrafted in the EU at the company's own facility in Poland.

Sizes

The sleeves are available in two sizes to match different girth lengths:

• For girths 40-45 cm long

• For girths 50-150 cm long

Washing instructions

To maintain the quality and breathability of the lambskin, the sleeve should be washed regularly, depending on the frequency of use. With use two to three times a week, we recommend washing it about every two weeks. If the lambskin is soaked with sweat, it should be washed immediately after use, as the ammonia in horse sweat can damage the material.

Because lambskin absorbs moisture very well, the sleeve should only be used again when it is completely dry. This ensures that its breathable effect is maintained. If the sleeve does not have enough time to dry between rides, it is advisable to use several sleeves in rotation.

Step 1: Washing
Machine washing is recommended, as it is much more effective than hand washing. Use a normal cycle with a spin cycle at 30°C and select the "extra water" option, or pour approximately 3-4 liters of additional water into the detergent compartment about 10 minutes after the program has started. We recommend the special MELP detergent from Mattes, which cleans and conditions both the lambskin and the leather. Do not use fabric softener or bleach and do not overload the washing machine.

Step 2: Drying
Remove the sleeve from the washing machine immediately after the cycle ends. The sleeve can be tumble dried on a cool setting (maximum 30°C) or air-dried in the shade. Do not expose the sleeve to heat sources (such as radiators) or direct sunlight.

Storage

Do not store the sleeve in a plastic bag. Keep it in a dry, shaded place. If the sleeve will not be used for an extended period, wash it first and ensure it is completely dry before storing. We recommend using a moth repellent during storage.
