haflinger size team harness for sale

[aranor farm]

Western style web nylon team harness used on 13.2-14 hand draft ponies. Sold one pony and no longer have a team to use them on. I bought it w/o collars and ordered two up to fit my ponies. Will let the collars go with the harness if they are the right size. They were only used a few times and are practically new. Asking $ 550.00

Where are you located? And what size are the collars? I have a friend who would be interested.

Thanks,

Central Vermont. 17″ and 19″ I think. I’ll have to measure them to make sure.

Say, where did you get those collars? I have had a heck of a time finding a work collar in 17″.

[aranor farm]

I measured the collars and they are actually 19″ and 20″.

Same boat here grey. I finally got an 18″ and use a pad for one smaller mule. The 18″ work collar came from Coblents shop, ordered through Pioneer. Very good collar.

Just looked close up on the collars. Same as mine, I will bet. Even down to the russet buck stitching. Expensive, but a good farm work collar. All others I had tried were buggy collars.

Thanks J-L

I like that russet lacing better than the white. Who ever thought white leather was a good idea on a work collar? Even just as a decoration.

I hear you.

I actually ordered two ‘work’ collars from various places that assured me they were farm style collars. As I said before they were buggy collars. Not much in the way of a rim to seat hames in and also lacking in the draft area. The other problem was the thinner area atop the neck of the collar.
One fellow told me he didn’t believe an animal that size would be used hard enough to make a difference. He is a well known person in the mule community and I won’t name names. I use a few of these mules around 1000# for mowing, raking, dragging, etc. and do need a true farm work collar. It wasn’t until after I got ahold of Pioneer (there are others I’m sure) that I found a true farm collar. Made by Coblentz collar shop. They were around $30 more than a buggy collar, but worth it.

All of my brand new collars have come from Coblentz. One time I really wasn’t sure, the lady I talked with said no problem, if it doesn’t fit, ship it back and we’ll send another.
