If the strap is too short, it will restrict the horse's jumping ability; if it is too long, it becomes a tripping hazard.Q: Does this martingale run true to size or should I size up?A: While Shires offers a standard fit, square-raised hunter tack is often designed with a refined profile. If your horse is between sizes or has a particularly thick neck, we recommend sizing up (e.g., from Cob to Full) to ensure the neck strap reaches the throatlatch comfortably without restriction. .
