I normally use weighted 3/4 in reins. I absolutely hate them. I got these about 2 weeks ago, holy hell best reins ever. Definitely worth the price, and i plan to order a few more to have as backups. Perfect length. Im 5”4 and my mare is 15 hands, we still have a good 4 feet of extra rein when we need it. Fits perfectly in smaller hands, and light feel. Matches the nrs headstall as well. Looks perfect for ranch class and sorting.
