FAQs

Is this headcollar suitable for turnout?

While durable, leather headcollars are typically recommended for handling, grooming, or travel rather than extended unsupervised turnout.

How do I choose the right size?

The Mackey Equisential series is available in specific size variants such as Foal, Pony, Cob, and Full to match your horse's head dimensions.

Can the brass fittings be replaced?

The fittings are robust, but if a buckle fails due to wear, it is recommended to have a professional saddler inspect it for potential repair.

What should I do if the leather gets wet?

Allow the leather to dry naturally at room temperature away from direct heat, then apply conditioner to maintain its condition.

Is this headcollar available in other colors?

Yes, this model is available in both Black and Brown variants to coordinate with your existing tack.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff after storage

Clean the leather thoroughly and apply a leather conditioner to restore suppleness.

Brass hardware looks dull

Use a specialized brass polish or a soft, dry cloth to buff the fittings and restore their shine.

Headcollar does not fit correctly

Adjust the chin and crown straps; if it remains too large or small, consider a different size variant like Pony or Full.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, durable leather material
  • Sturdy solid brass hardware
  • Adjustable straps for a precise fit
  • Elegant and professional appearance

Cons

  • Requires regular cleaning and conditioning
  • Not machine washable
  • May stiffen if exposed to constant moisture

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, start by loosening the crown strap before placing the headcollar over the horse's ears. Once positioned, adjust the crown and chin straps to ensure there is enough room for the horse to move its jaw comfortably while remaining secure. For care, use a high-quality leather cleaner to remove dirt and sweat after every use. Apply a leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from drying out or cracking. Store the headcollar in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to extend its lifespan.
