Ovation Elite BioGrip Reins

Because they are made with rubberized Biothane, these reins maintain their grip even when wet. Unlike standard leather, which can become slippery or stiff when exposed to moisture, the Biothane material stays flexible and tacky, providing a consistent hold in rainy or humid conditions.

Yes, they are designed for both training and competition. The combination of leather and Biothane offers a professional, traditional appearance that fits well in English riding and eventing disciplines while providing the modern performance benefits of synthetic materials.

These reins use traditional hook studs to attach to the bit. This is a secure, classic method that keeps the connection clean and streamlined without the bulk of buckles.

With a width of 0.625 inches, these reins are designed to be standard and manageable for most riders. The flexible construction helps them feel less bulky than some all-rubber reins, making them comfortable to hold even if you have smaller hands.

No, the Biothane portion does not require oiling or conditioning. You only need to clean the leather sections as you would with your other tack; the synthetic material can simply be wiped down with a damp cloth to maintain its grip.
