Euroriding Headstall La Rochelle English Comb. Noseband

This bridle is offered in size Pony. If in doubt, measure your current bridle: the cheekpiece length and the circumference at nose level give a more reliable picture than the size name alone, which varies from brand to brand.

Fit the noseband first, with room for two fingers at the nasal bone, and only then adjust the flash strap. The flash strap runs under the bit and stays looser than the noseband itself. Also check that the curved browband sits free and does not push against the base of the ears anywhere: move it forward a fraction if needed.

When cleaning, pay attention to the stone-set browband. Work there with a slightly damp cloth and do not put soap or balm on the stones themselves; treat the leather around them carefully with saddle soap, followed by a thin layer of balm. The rest of the bridle is looked after in the usual way: clean after use, dry at room temperature and grease regularly.

Choose the La Rochelle when you want a bridle with an elegant, eye-catching browband and a comfortable headpiece at the same time. The combination of a curved browband with stones and a classic combined noseband suits riders who want to look well turned out, in training and at a competition.

If you want a completely plain bridle without decoration, look instead within our range at a model with a plain browband. If you prefer to ride without a flash strap, a bridle with only a noseband makes more sense. Also bear in mind that the reins are chosen separately.

Adjust the noseband first, leaving room for two fingers at the nasal bone, and then the flash strap, which runs under the bit and stays looser than the noseband. Check that the browband does not press against the base of the ears anywhere; move it forward a fraction if needed. Reins are chosen separately.

Wipe the browband with a lightly damp cloth, with no soap or balm on the stones. Treat the leather around them carefully with leather soap and a thin layer of balm.

Are the reins included?
No, the reins are not included. They are available separately, so you can choose the model that suits your hand.

Which size should I take?
This bridle is offered in size Pony. Compare the cheekpiece length and noseband circumference with your current bridle to be sure.

Is this bridle available in other sizes?
The sizes we stock as standard are listed under the technical specifications. Other sizes can be ordered in on request.

What type of noseband does this bridle have?
A combined noseband: a noseband with a flash strap that runs under the bit.

What is a curved browband?
A browband cut in a gentle curve instead of perfectly straight. It follows the forehead better and is less likely to push against the base of the ears.

How do I care for the browband with stones?
Wipe it with a slightly damp cloth and do not apply soap or balm to the stones themselves. Treat the leather around them carefully with saddle soap and balm.

How do I care for the leather?
Clean it after use with a slightly damp cloth, let it dry at room temperature and treat it regularly with saddle soap and a thin layer of leather balm.

May I use this bridle at a competition?
