Breastplate Size Guide

Breastplates are sized by the horse's chest and body, not the head. Measure around the widest point of the chest, just behind the front legs.

Size Chart

Size Horse Type Chest Width Chest Strap Length Neck / Shoulder Strap
Pony Small to medium pony (up to 14hh) 28–32 cm 90–100 cm 40–50 cm
Cob Large pony / small horse (14–15.2hh) 32–37 cm 100–112 cm 50–60 cm
Full Standard horse (15.2–17hh) 37–42 cm 112–125 cm 60–70 cm
XFull Warmblood / large horse (17hh+) 42–48 cm 125–140 cm 70–80 cm

How to Measure

  • Chest Width: Measure across the front of the chest between the two shoulder points. This determines the width of the chest strap.
  • Chest Strap Length: Measure around the chest from one saddle D-ring, under the chest, to the opposite D-ring.
  • Neck / Shoulder Strap: Measure from the saddle D-ring, up and over the shoulder, back to the saddle D-ring on the same side.

If your horse is between sizes, size up for a more comfortable fit. All Van-Jan breastplates have multiple adjustment holes on every strap.

Care & Conditioning

Clean leather with a soft damp cloth after use. Apply a quality leather conditioner every 4–6 weeks, or more frequently in wet or cold conditions. Do not use household soaps, detergents, or oil-based products. Store away from direct heat and sunlight. A well-maintained Van Jans breastplate will last many years of regular use.
