All of our collars are handmade with genuine American Amish
craftsmanship and are not imported. Imported leathers and materials
cannot compare to the quality of collars that we provide. Only the best
grade of leather and top-quality materials are used- which makes for a
high-quality product. These come from a local Amish family business that
has been making collars and horse blankets since 1975. If you want to

satisfied customers had to say!

How to Fit a Horse Collar
It does not matter how well a horse collar is made, if it is not properly fitted
to the horse, it is sure to hurt him. Therefore, it is necessary to use the
greatest care in selecting the proper shape and size of collar.
The photograph at the top of this page shows you how a collar should be
fitted. If care is taken in fitting the collar and adjusting the hames so the
hame tug comes over center of draft, you have eliminated all trouble of
sore necks and shoulders, and the horse will work with ease and comfort.
More horses are ruined by collars fitted too large than any other cause.
When fitting a horse with a collar, there should not be any more space
between the horse's neck and throat of the collar than will allow your four
fingers, when laid flat on the inside of the throat of the collar, to pass
through freely.
The best way to fit a collar, if possible, is to borrow one from someone else
to see how it fits your horse. Doing this, you can get an idea of size and see
how the collar will fit, and whether you should order a larger or smaller
collar as needed.


All of these hames are measured from the top
notch of the ratchet to the bottom of the hame
to arrive at the correct hame size. To
determine the correct size hames to fit your
collar, always order the hames in a size 1"-2"
longer than your collar size. The only
exception is with buggy hames, which should
be only 1" over your collar size.
