Abstract from The Veterinary Journal
The Fairfax Girth is a luxury item and needs maintaining well. The girth should be well cleaned with warm water after use and fed with leather feeder after every use. Glycerin and oil should not be used as they seal the sweat into the leather and this is what causes the leather to crack over a period of time.

Athletico: This girth has a specific fit adapted to horses with an athletic, wedge shaped body. The saddle has a tendency to slip backwards, also pulling the girth backwards, because all the lines of the horses body: back, ribcage and sternum to belly taper towards the rear. So, instead of opening to the rear this girth simply opens to the front, to a degree! Naturally, the internal construction is essential for the function of the girth! We developed this design, because this specific problem was pointed out to us by several riders and horse owners on quite a few jumpers and specifically in eventing horses!
