Description
LeMieux Hobby Horse Standing Martingale in Soft Leather
The LeMieux Hobby Horse Standing Martingale is a miniature standing martingale made from authentic soft leather, designed to fit a hobby horse rather than a live horse. It is best for hobby horse riders who want a complete, realistic schooling outfit and the rounded top line look associated with flatwork.
The martingale attaches with a leather loop to the back of a Hobby Horse bridle noseband, while an adjustable neckpiece and a buckle fastening to the stick keep it secure and tidy in use. It coordinates with the wider LeMieux Hobby Horse range, so bridles, saddle pads and accessories can be built into one matching set.

FAQ
Does this fit a real horse or pony?
No. This martingale is scaled for hobby horses only and is not intended as tack for a live horse or pony.
Do I need a Hobby Horse bridle as well?
Yes. The leather loop attaches to the back of a Hobby Horse bridle noseband, so a bridle with a noseband is required.
Is the fit adjustable?
Yes. The neckpiece is adjustable and the buckle fastens around the stick, so it can be set to suit different hobby horses.
What is a standing martingale used for?
On a real horse a standing martingale runs from the girth to the noseband. On a hobby horse it is decorative and completes the flatwork look, encouraging the rounded top line appearance.
How do I care for the leather?
Wipe with a damp cloth, dry naturally away from direct heat and apply a leather conditioner occasionally to keep the hide supple.
What is it made from?
Soft leather, with a buckle fastening and a leather noseband loop.
