Description / Horses | Fine Driving Show Harness
Why This Harness Stands Out
Our Amish-made BioThane® Fine Driving Show Harness blends classic craftsmanship with modern performance. Designed as a “dress shoe” compared to heavier working harnesses, this set is lighter, more agile, and built to meet the demands of show rings, pleasure driving, and carriage parades — without sacrificing strength or durability.
What You Get
-
Complete harness set: bridle (with choice of blinders — square or round), tugs, and driving lines.
-
Hardware options: choose between solid brass and stainless steel fittings for lasting corrosion resistance.
-
Full customizable trim: optional decorative diamonds or spots, with optional chain-trim browband upgrade — ideal if you want that show-ring shine.
Quality Materials & Craftsmanship
We use premium BioThane® webbing — a rugged, synthetic leather-alternative that resists sweat, water, and weather. Unlike traditional leather, BioThane® is easy to clean, low-maintenance, and doesn’t need repeated conditioning — yet maintains the classic harness look. Each harness is handcrafted by skilled Amish artisans in the USA, ensuring attention to detail and long-lasting quality.
Lightweight & Show-Ready Design
This fine harness is intentionally lighter than heavy-duty work harnesses. That makes it ideal for high-stepping driving horses, carriage shows, slow parades, and pleasure driving. If you’re showing American Saddlebreds, Morgan Horses, Arabian Horses, or other fine driving breeds, this harness delivers elegance, comfort, and performance.
Custom Fit for Your Horse
Available in Standard or Cob size, this harness accommodates a variety of horse builds. Choose from different beta-line widths (1", 7/8", or 3/4"), select face or side-check reins, and decide between square or round blinders for the aesthetic you prefer.
Easy to Personalize for Show or Pleasure Driving
Whether you want a plain, elegant harness or a show-ring-ready setup, you can customize trim color (black, white, red, green, blue) and optional decorative upgrades. The chain-trim browband or decorative spots give your harness a refined, show-quality finish.
Recommended Uses
-
Show / fine harness competition
-
Pleasure driving and carriage parades
-
Light carriage or buggy use
-
Park harness driving with high-stepping horses
Care & Maintenance
Because the harness is made from BioThane®, it cleans easily with mild soap and water—no leather conditioner required. Dry thoroughly after washing and store in a dry place for long-lasting performance.
Why Choose This Harness vs a Heavy Work Harness
Heavy-duty Amish harnesses are made for strenuous daily pulling — wagons, farm implements, or heavy carriages. In contrast, this fine driving harness is purpose-built for elegance, ease of movement, and show readiness — the “dress shoe” for driving tack. The lighter build reduces fatigue for show horses, enhances maneuverability, and adds a polished look.
