EcoRider Inside Grip Plaited Reins

The ultimate show-ring rein combining traditional plaiting with hidden, slip-free control. The EcoRider Inside Grip Plaited Reins are expertly designed for show hunter classes, working hunters, and traditional riders who demand the security of rubber lining but require an immaculate, classic braided look.

Hand-crafted from our premium, vegetable-tanned EcoLeather and deeply treated with EcoRider's natural beeswax formula, these reins offer superb suppleness. This innovative design features a traditional 3-plait hand-braided leather exterior on the outside, while concealing a sturdy, non-slip rubber grip running along the inside face—providing reliable bit contact and secure hand purchase, even in wet weather.

Key Performance Features:

• Traditional 3-Plait Exterior: Offers the classic, braided look preferred in show hunter and working classes, draping beautifully and molding to your horse's neck.
• Concealed Rubber Grip: A high-friction rubber lining is placed solely on the inside face of the rein, providing slip-free security with minimal gripping force.
• Supple EcoLeather Foundations: Crafted from our finest naturally vegetable-tanned eco-leather, ensuring immediate flexibility right out of the box.
• Traditional Hook Stud Fastenings: Fitted with secure, low-profile hook studs (billets) to keep your bit connections neat and streamlined.
• REACH-Compliant Eco-Leather: Naturally vegetable-tanned over several weeks to ensure a breathable, hypoallergenic, and exceptionally skin-kind finish.
• Please Note – Product Usage & Safety Guidance: Plaited leather reins are handcrafted by plaiting individual leather strands. Due to the nature of this woven construction, the leather features inherent flex and may stretch under tension. Plaited reins are designed specifically for light to general riding, everyday flatwork, and showing. They are not engineered to withstand extreme strain or heavy pulling; applying severe force may compromise the weave, leading to structural failure or snapping. For heavy-duty use or horses prone to strong pulling, we recommend solid leather or web-reinforced reins.
