The Henry James V Grip Rubber Reins in Havana are a premium rein option, expertly crafted for riders who demand both performance and comfort. These reins feature a unique V Grip design, made up of small, chevron-formed rubber pimples that offer superior grip without compromising on feel. The rubber bobbles are rounded at the top, ensuring a soft and comfortable hold—perfect for long schooling sessions or competition use. Whether riding with or without gloves, the reins provide a confident, non-slip grip in all weather conditions.
Constructed from the finest English Sedgwick leather, these reins are both elegant and durable, developing a beautiful patina over time while maintaining their strength and flexibility. The rich Havana brown leather pairs beautifully with most tack and adds a classic, polished look to any bridle.
The hybrid design features a 19.5mm width and 7mm thickness, offering a substantial yet ergonomic feel in the hand. The reins are reinforced with a strong nylon core, providing long-term durability and shape retention, even under pressure. This makes them ideal for everyday use as well as competition settings where precision and reliability are essential.
Additional thoughtful features include martingale stoppers for secure compatibility with training aids and billet fastenings, which offer a traditional, streamlined connection to the bit. These fastenings not only ensure a secure fit but also contribute to the reins’ clean, refined appearance.
