We have joined the ONE DAY internet strike - Jan 18, 2012... consider the world if the new bill is passed which would allow internet sites to be blocked!
I've censored the following, in protest of a bill that gives any corporation and the US government the power to censor the internet--a bill that could pass THIS WEEK. To see the uncensored text, and to stop internet censorship!

Thank you for supporting our public education efforts. Your generosity is reviving the art of traditional mohair cinch making.
We invite you to join in on the fun of mohair cinch making as well! Several avenues of introduction to the skills are now being provided through Workshops, Demonstrations, Personal Training, DVDs and the new Online Video Education as part we expand the horizons for the custom cinch making community for Equine related gear-making and skills.
A note about the Search feature within our online store:
Key-word search also returns results for articles at the bottom of the page following the product listings... Original articles will eventually include photographic illustrations such as the page on our Educational efforts.
Learn more about our cinch cord making and why we publish the percentage of fiber content in all the cords we offer. Just scroll on down, past the photo collage...

Please note that we promote and are dedicated to use of 100% animal fiber for saddle cinch use in contact with animals. To this end we choose to list the specific cord and yarn fiber content according to Federal Trade Commission tolerance guidelines for "Protecting America's Consumers." The following provides a sampling of known cinches in-use:
- 100% Alpaca
- 70% Kid Mohair/30% low-crimp Wool
- 96% Mohair, 4% Wool
- 100% Mohair (Adult)
- 100% Horse Hair (Mane)
Consider this: While the "softness" of cordage is often spoken of in terms of individual fibers, the size and twist of a group of fibers making up the yarn-ply, can even cause the softest fiber feel quite stiff. Our standard cinch cord is uniquely balanced to provide a soft feel while holding together as the cinch maker works with it. Custom twist, such as for period authentic projects, can be provided for an additional fee.

"When making a cinch, I believe it is possible, and even the cinch maker's responsibility, to keep the comfort of the horse or mule in mind. Thus I pay special attention to strand tension, keeping the side toward the animal as smooth as possible, and producing a fine work of art that will endure for years to come!" - Darin Alexander

Feel free to browse our short customer list for an idea where some of Mr. Alexander's cinches and mecates are being used.
Given the custom nature of Darin's work in making the cinch cords from single yarns, wholesale prices are no longer possible. Quantity quotes are available for more than 6 cinches or breast collars at a time, with only slight differences between each one.
