Endurance Sponges are durable sponges enclosed in a nylon mesh bag with a long cord and a swivel snap for attaching the cord to a saddle dee ring. Designed for wetting down your horse during those long trail rides or competition. Draw rope is long enough to drop sponge directly in a stream while stopped for horses to drink. Sponge quickly absorbs water allowing you to gently squeeze over horses head and neck to cool him down.
