Not all biothane is created equal. Well, maybe it's CREATED equal but
after its made into stuff, it sure isn't. I've had great luck with lots
of stuff, bridles, breast collars, etc. from Animal Tacker (out of
Texas). (Except I don't like biothane reins. Too slickery and ours
cracked finally.) She is at a lot of rides in California with nice
stuff. I'd especially check to see that the biothane material is very
smooth at the ends, not just chopped off blunt. Look underneath where
it touches the horse to be sure it's smooth. I actually like it better
if the ends are turned out , instead of in, so there's less rubbing.
Look at the metal fittings. That's where it will probably break, if it
ever does.
