MECATES
- Hand Braided - Custom - Parachute Cord-
These mecates have a wonderful feel and weight, distinct to being braided by hand; they are soft with a distinct feel to them. These mecates have a very attractive yet strong knot at the end that lies directly onto the slobber strap.
There are a wide variety of colors and patterns to choose from. Mecates come in 8 or 12 strand braid options; this is only personal preference.
When ordering a mecate be sure to indicate size (8 or 12 strand), colors (for an 8 strand there can be up to 4 and a 12 strand up to 6) and length (20 (which is average) to 24 feet).
PRICE

These are excellent quality headstalls; very good leather, impeccable craftsmanship, beautiful and durable. There is one buckle on the left side, double stitched and these are sized to be very versatile.
Charlie sends me variety; roller, brass, stainless and silver platted buckles. He also sends variety in leather colors so be sure to see what I have and any we can see what you like best!

You have a choice of brass or silver plated closure. They are made of sinew, looks like rawhide but needs less care.
These 2 are both their own pattern of the mecates shown.
