FAQs

What is the bridle made of?

The bridle is made of eco-friendly vegetable tanned leather with stainless steel fittings.

Are reins included?

How do I clean the bridle?

Remove dirt with a damp sponge and treat with Ezi-Groom leather soft soap or use Ezi-Groom glycerine leather spray or wipes.

How often should I apply Neatsfoot oil?

Apply Neatsfoot oil before first use. Reapply when the leather feels dry or stiff.

How do the cheek clips work?

The cheek clips are designed for quick bit changes. They feature a clip mechanism that allows you to easily attach and detach bits.

What sizes are available?

The bridle is available in various sizes including Cob, Pony, Full, and Extra Full.

What is the purpose of the padding?

The padding at the headpiece, browband and cavesson noseband is designed to provide cushioning and distribute pressure evenly for added comfort.

Is the leather durable?

Troubleshooting

The leather feels stiff.

Apply Neatsfoot oil and allow the leather to absorb it. Repeat until the leather becomes supple.

The cheek clips are difficult to open.

Ensure the clips are clean and free of debris. Apply a small amount of leather lubricant if needed.

The bridle is causing rubbing.

Check the fit and padding. Make sure the bridle is correctly adjusted and not too tight. Consider using a sheepskin pad for extra protection.
