Slobber straps are a double strap of leather with a hole in both ends. They are normally used with a snaffle and mecate reins. The slobber straps are folded and fit through the rings on the bit. They are designed to be used with a bit that has at least 3" rings so that there is room for the headstall and slobber straps. The rein is attached through both straps with a half-hitch knot which allows for easy adjustment and removal. Slobber straps are especially useful to avoid wear on your mecate reins and they keep the reins out of the water when your horse gets a drink.
