Also commonly searched as a Western rear girth, back girth, flank cinch, saddle back cinch, or leather rear cinch, this piece is available in multiple traditional tooling patterns so you can choose a style that coordinates with your Western saddle and horse tack.

Genuine Water Buffalo Leather

The rear cinch is made from genuine water buffalo leather with a substantial thickness of approximately 3.5 mm or greater. The single-ply construction keeps the natural character of the leather visible while providing the solid feel expected from traditional Western saddle tack.

Because genuine leather is a natural material, grain, shade, surface character, and tooling depth can vary slightly from piece to piece. These natural variations are part of genuine leather rather than defects.
