{"product_id":"leather-gag-eggbutt","title":"Leather Gag Eggbutt","description":"\u003cp\u003eVelari Leather Gag Eggbutt - \u003cspan\u003ecombines a straight leather mouthpiece with an eggbutt gag configuration, bringing together natural materials, a stable feel and responsive rein action. Designed for horses that benefit from consistent contact and thoughtful support when developing balance, this bit is particularly suited to experienced riders with quiet, established hands.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe eggbutt rings provide a stable lateral connection between the mouthpiece and the cheeks. Through the gag mechanism, with the corresponding cheekpieces running through the rings, rein contact creates an additional action that may have a lifting effect. This can be useful when schooling horses that tend to travel on the forehand or need support in developing greater balance and self-carriage. The degree of influence depends on the fitting, the rider's hands and the individual horse's response.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe straight leather mouthpiece offers a natural, yielding alternative to conventional metal mouthpieces. As the horse chews and salivates, the leather can gradually become more supple and adapt to the contours of the mouth. Its unjointed construction provides a consistent contact surface without joint movement, making it an option for horses that prefer a stable, uninterrupted feel. Regular conditioning with olive oil or sunflower oil and careful inspection help maintain the leather's condition throughout use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMain Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-spread=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEggbutt gag bit with a straight leather mouthpiece\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCombines a stable feel with gag rein action\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEggbutt rings provide a consistent lateral connection\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGag mechanism may create a lifting effect under rein contact\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMay support schooling focused on balance and self-carriage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn option for horses that tend to lean onto the forehand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStraight, unjointed mouthpiece\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eConsistent contact surface across the tongue and bars\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNatural, yielding leather material\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLeather may become more supple through moisture and chewing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSuitable for consideration for horses with sensitive mouths\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigned for horses that prefer a stable mouthpiece\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAllows refined communication when correctly fitted and used\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIntended for experienced riders with quiet, consistent hands\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRequires regular leather conditioning and wear inspection\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVelari markings assist with correct positioning\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize: 11.5cm - 14.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThickness: 20mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Velari","offers":[{"title":"11.5cm","offer_id":53921499676938,"sku":"22078-05-11.5","price":94.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"12.5cm","offer_id":53921499709706,"sku":"22078-05-12.5","price":94.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"13.5cm","offer_id":53921499742474,"sku":"22078-05-13.5","price":94.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"14.5cm","offer_id":53921499775242,"sku":"22078-05-14.5","price":94.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1066\/5752\/files\/velari-eggbutt-gag-leather-bit.png?v=1792148021","url":"https:\/\/equizoneonline.com\/products\/leather-gag-eggbutt","provider":"EquiZone Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
