A harmonious blend of secure control, dynamic flex, and elite equestrian comfort. The EcoRider Ultra Comfort Elasticated Martingale is engineered to refine your contact, providing a soft yet highly effective boundary for horses that tend to toss their head or resist the bit.
Hand-crafted from our premium, vegetable-tanned EcoLeather and deeply hand-conditioned with EcoRider's natural beeswax formula, this martingale incorporates high-flex elasticated yoke straps. This innovative elastic attachment absorbs sudden bit shocks dynamically, offering your horse a comfortable, highly responsive connection and helping you achieve precise, steady control in the saddle.
Key Performance Features:
- Responsive Elastic Yoke: Heavy-duty, high-tension elasticated martingale straps flex with your horse's movements, cushioning sudden shocks and preventing sharp pressure on the bit.
- Optimized Control: Aids in maintaining precise, stable bit contact, enhancing your horse's performance and boosting your confidence across all disciplines.
- Supple EcoLeather Construction: Crafted from naturally vegetable-tanned hides to strict REACH environmental standards, offering instant flexibility and remarkable durability.
- Fully Adjustable Fitting: Features easy-to-adjust buckles on the neck loop and girth strap, ensuring a balanced, secure fit for various horse profiles.
- Durable Stainless Steel Hardware: Fitted with high-polish, rust-resistant stainless steel rein rings that allow your reins to glide smoothly and securely.

Anatomical Configuration
When a horse hollows or throws its head up, a traditional rigid leather martingale snaps tight, concentrating sharp pressure on the sensitive bars of the mouth. This sudden, unyielding shock often causes defensive resistance, teeth grinding, and poll tension. The Ultra Comfort Elasticated Martingale integrates soft elasticated panels that stretch dynamically, dampening sudden head movements and absorbing the shock before it reaches the bit—promoting a softer wrist and an elastic connection.

Dynamic Fit Tip
💡 Pro-Tip: Adjust your martingale so that when the horse's head is in a natural position, the martingale rings can reach up to the horse's throat lash without pulling the reins down. Ensure the elastic is clean and free of sweat build-up to maintain its responsive flexibility.
