EMPATHY BREASTPLATE
The unique Empathy breastplate, is a careful blend of ancient and proven harness systems with new lightweight materials that combine strength with low maintenance and maximum comfort. Research into the ideal breastplate shape has been meticulously followed right back to the days of the charioteers of ancient Greece. Study of load bearing areas and the horse's skeletal and muscular anatomy have all been taken into consideration. The result is a breastplate that combines the load bearing and efficiency of a full breastplate, but with lightness and a more versatile and adjustable fitting. The Empathy works with the horse's conformation instead of against it, by allowing greater freedom of movement through the shoulder area, enabling the horse to pull a load with minimal restriction to limb movement or pressure on the shoulder joint.For fitting instructions click here
