Schneiders® Direct Contact Softee Leather Romel Reins - 24.5oz

These romel reins are 46 inches long with an additional 11-inch popper at the tail, giving you plenty of length for western riding. The 46-inch measurement provides the traditional romel length that works well for most riders and horses.

Yes, these reins are crafted from hand-braided, extremely soft leather that's supple to the touch yet durable enough for regular use. The braiding creates both comfort in your hand and strength that holds up over time with proper care.

The Schneiders patented Direct Contact bit end is designed for better communication and feel between your hands and the horse's mouth. This technology ensures more responsive handling compared to standard romel reins.

These reins feature alternating silver plates, rawhide-wrapped ferrels, and leather dividers for a polished look. The tail includes basketweave tooling, adding both visual appeal and traditional western styling.

These Direct Contact Softee Leather Romel Reins weigh 24.5 ounces, making them substantial enough to have good feel and drape without being heavy in your hands. The weight is ideal for western riding where you want responsiveness with balanced control.

The reins have a 1/2-inch diameter, which provides a comfortable grip that's not too thin or too thick for most riders' hands. This thickness strikes a good balance between control and comfort during long rides.
