The Shires Three Point (Hunting) Breastplates Are Made From Beautiful Quality Salisbury Leather. The 3 Point Breastplates Feature Contrast Stitching, Padding At The Withers And Elastic Inserts At The Shoulders To Allow Movement. The Shires Three Point Breastplates Also Feature A Detachable Running Martingale Attachment, Adjustable Shoulder Straps And Stainless Steel Or Brass Fittings. The Hunting Breastplate Helps To Prevent The Saddle From Slipping, And Comes With A Running Martingale Attachment That Is Buckled Onto A Ring At The Chest. Because The Hunting Breastplate Is Attached To The D-Rings Of The Saddle It Is Not As Reliable As Equipment Attached To The Saddle By Means Of The Girth. Therefore, The Breastgirth Is Sometimes Preferred On Cross-Country. The Hunting Breastplate Also Tends To Have A Restrictive Effect On The Shoulder, Even When Correctly Fitted.
