A good fitting is essential to ensure saddle stability, the horse's freedom of movement, and its comfort during work. Thanks to its natural flexibility, cotton easily conforms to the horse's shape, provided the size and positioning are appropriate.

The girth length should allow the buckles to reach the bottom of the girth straps, without going too high or being too close to the elbow. A girth that is too short creates excessive pressure points, while a girth that is too long compromises saddle stability.

The girth should be positioned naturally in the horse's girth groove, without being artificially pulled forward or backward.
Gurthing should be progressive and symmetrical. It is recommended to girth alternately on each side, in several stages, to respect the horse's rib cage and promote an even distribution of pressure. Once girthed, the girth should be firm but not excessively tight: you should be able to fit two fingers between the girth and the horse's belly.

Finally, after a few minutes of walking, a slight adjustment may be necessary. Regular checking of the fitting, especially for horses undergoing morphological changes, ensures comfort, performance, and equipment longevity.
