The Henry James Bio Grip Hybrid Rubber Reins with Leather Stoppers are a versatile and durable rein choice, designed for riders who value both control and comfort in all disciplines. These reins feature a bio grip rubber surface with a pattern of small rubber pimples, offering excellent grip in all weather conditions while maintaining a soft, flexible feel in the hand. Slightly thicker than traditional reins, they provide a solid, comfortable hold, making them a favourite among riders across all levels and disciplines.
What sets these reins apart is the addition of hand-stitched leather stoppers every 5cm, offering consistent grip placement and aiding riders in developing even, steady contact. These stoppers not only help with rein length management but also give a classic and professional look, blending practicality with style.
Crafted from premium English Sedgwick leather, the reins are both supple and strong, with a rich finish that complements any bridle. They feature a 20mm width and 8mm thickness, offering a substantial yet ergonomic feel that suits a variety of hand sizes. A durable nylon inner core adds strength and flexibility, ensuring the reins hold their shape and perform reliably over time.
Other practical features include martingale stoppers for secure integration with training aids and billet fastenings for a traditional, streamlined connection to the bit. Available in four sizes—Pony (50″), Cob (54″), Full (56″), and Extra Full (60″)—these reins cater to a wide range of horses and bridles.
As one of the brand’s most popular reins, the Bio Grip Hybrid Rubber Reins with Leather Stoppers strike the perfect balance of function, comfort, and classic style. Whether for schooling, hacking, or competition, they are an ideal choice for riders seeking superior grip and durability in a thoughtfully designed rein.
