BRAND: Sleek n’ Slinky
A slinky will keep them clean overnight for show day, and shavings out of their braids. Helps keep frizz down on the braids. For indoor use.
*IMPORTANT INFORMATION*
-Make nose band, and belly band snug, so it doesn’t ride up. If nose band is too loose, can roll it up *See photo*.
-Make sure there’s nothing in the stall that it can get caught on. Tape up hooks on water bucket handle.
FEATURES:
-Extra large eye holes: if a slinky shifts, it can possibly end up covering up their eyes overnight until someone arrives in the morning. Extra large eye holes helps reduce/prevent material from covering their eyes in case it shifts. Please make sure the nose band, and back belly band are snug, to avoid shifting.
-Extra long backs: provides more coverage. Won’t slip over the withers when they bend down to eat. Short backs can possibly slip over the withers, and onto the neck/head. This also causes rubbing on the braids.
-Adjustable nose band to help reduce/prevent shifting. 2 inch wide Velcro closure.
-Heavy duty belly band clip (no velcro). *If your clip sits close to the end, tie a knot to help prevent it from slipping off 🪢
-Yoke (strap between front legs)
-Heavy duty zipper makes it easy to go on. *The zipper is under warranty.
If you have any problems, please message me, so I can either:
-mail a new pull piece
-fix

“ I love my slinky from Katie’s!!”
Melissa A. OWNER OF KATIE’S HORSE CARE SUPPLY & BRAIDER: I use these slinkies quite often- a lot of my braiding clients have them. And I have a personal collection of 10 of these slinkies, that I loan out all the time when my braiding clients don’t have one. I absolutely love the fit, and how easily they go on. As a braider, we love slinkies that have zippers.
