Dy’on New English Elastic Bib Attachment
Named for its uniquely shaped leather patch that resembles a baby’s bib, the bib martingale combines practicality with functionality. Its forked design permits lateral movement while preventing the horse from raising its head too high, thus ensuring safety. The bib’s elasticity provides effective restraint without causing a severe reaction.
If a horse attempts to grab the reins, the bib martingale acts as a deterrent. Riders with unpredictable or restless horses might find this type of martingale particularly useful.
The Dy’on New English Elastic Bib Martingale Attachment belongs to Dy’on’s esteemed Premium Collections. It is crafted from high-quality, vegetable-tanned leather, featuring robust stainless steel fixtures and an elastic section.
This attachment connects to a breastplate or martingale using a roller buckle, and the elasticated section offers enhanced flexibility for the horse.
The Premium Collections utilize Dy’on leather, which undergoes a vegetable tanning process perfected by Philippe Dion in collaboration with Dy’on’s partner tannery in Spain. This tannery has honed this method over four generations, making the vegetable tanning process as close to the traditional, more extensive tanning methods as possible.
