Hello to all,

I'm just starting out to ride again. Just wondering what would be the best
rein. Rope reins I really don't care for and I have split reins. I'm really confused as to what would be the proper rein. Anyone have any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated. :)
Thank you,
Libann

what discipline do you do or just for general riding.

I like plain leather reains - as thin as poss preferably! Sadly it's an ongoing battle with Lucy's owner who keeps putting those darn rubber Stubben reins back on her bridle.

I used top lace, bottom plain for double reins ...

I like laced lether reins as they offer grip without being bulky.

I really like the look of Eventer reins - half rubber, half leather.
