Harness ships directly from an Amish shop in Indiana. Allow up to 3 weeks for shipping. Custom options may add 4-6 weeks.
 
The harness is Amish-made using maintenance-free BioThane® USA material.
 
The BioThane® company spends countless hours testing to evaluate adhesion to its hand-selected, USA-made polyester webbing. Imported plastic-coated webbings have high failure rates under tension and become brittle in cold weather. Thickness and grades of harness materials are selected based on the expectations that the harnesses will be used by other Amish families for working horses day in and day out, with lighter-duty harnesses designed for weekend pleasure trips to shopping and church.
 
Extra time is spent handcrafting each harness with rounded strap ends, and additional stitching pulled tight into the surface to reduce wear points at the stitching. See the standard sewing design picture. The shop uses the highest-quality stainless or solid-brass hardware, sourced from the USA, including a USA-made stainless bit.
 
Each harness is then personally inspected by the owner and assigned a serial number before shipment. You will find that the attention to detail also provides a more comfortable-fitting harness.
 
BioThane® was developed in 1977 by the Polyurethane Polymer division of BF Goodrich to meet demand for a more flexible, high-performance horse-racing harness. The engineers worked closely with horse owners to create a line of synthetic belting for the tack and harness industry that would be far superior to leather.
 
BioThane® rinses clean in seconds. Since its inception, BioThane® has become the choice of professional football leagues for helmet chin straps and pad strapping, as well as for other industrial applications, including the US Military, the medical field, and EMS ambulances, due to its superior holding and cleaning capabilities. BioThane® verifies that all the raw materials used in their products are carcinogen-free.
 
The Amish prefer horse harnesses made of BioThane® because they are waterproof, UV-protected, do not mold or mildew, do not absorb odors, do not dry out or crack, retain flexibility in cold weather, and are chemical-resistant.
 
When people depend on horse harnesses as either a full-time occupation or for an occasional outing, they will know harnesses made with BioThane® webbing are low maintenance with no unwanted surprises even after years of service.
