Mackey Lasso Leadrope with Leather Trim for Horses
Description
Mackey Lasso Leadrope - Traditional Woven Rope with Leather Detailing
The Mackey Lasso Leadrope is a horse lead rope made from strong woven rope, finished with a quality leather end loop and leather tail detail and fitted with a strong trigger clip. It is designed for everyday handling - leading, tying up in the stable, in-hand work and travelling - and suits horse and pony owners who want a hard-wearing rope that still looks traditional and smart.
Because the rope is woven rather than flat webbing, it gives a comfortable grip in the hand, while the leather trim lifts it above a basic yard rope for shows and in-hand classes. Browse more options in our headcollars and lead ropes collection.

How to Use
- Check the trigger clip, stitching and rope for wear before each use.
- Clip the trigger clip to the metal ring under the chin of a correctly fitted headcollar.
- Hold the rope in the hand nearest the horse, with the slack folded - never looped - in your other hand.
- When tying up, pass the rope through a loop of breakable baler twine and secure with a quick-release knot rather than tying directly to a fixed object.
- After use, brush off dried mud, hang the rope to dry naturally away from direct heat and condition the leather occasionally.
FAQ
What is the Mackey Lasso Leadrope made from?
It is made from strong woven rope with a quality leather end loop and leather tail detail, fitted with a strong trigger clip.
Will it fit my headcollar?
Yes - the trigger clip attaches to the metal ring of any standard headcollar, in pony, cob, full or extra full sizes.
Is it suitable for ponies as well as horses?
Yes. The same rope is used for ponies, cobs, horses and warmbloods, as the lead rope size does not change with the headcollar size.
Is this lead rope suitable for travelling?
Yes. The strong woven rope and trigger clip make it well suited to loading and travelling, as well as everyday use around the yard.
Can I use it for groundwork and lunging?
It is intended for leading and in-hand handling. For lunging, use a dedicated lunge line of the correct length.
How do I care for the leather parts?
Wipe off dirt, allow the rope to dry naturally away from direct heat and apply a suitable leather conditioner occasionally to keep the leather supple.
