The Leather Grooming Halter doesnt have a throat latch which makes it easy to put on and take off. Many top show grooms prefer a grooming halter without throat latch in the grooming box. Because it doesnt absorb water this halter is perfect for washing horses. The Leather Grooming Halter is made of artificial leather (100% animal friendly). This artificial leather does not absorb water or dirt, does not break, doesnt get hard or change color. Its more flexible than real leather and therefore much nicer to use. The Leather Grooming Halter features a gold colored plate with an engraved logo. It can be turned over and personalized. All closures are gold colored as well. The size can be adjusted under the chin and on the left side of the head.
