Premiere Headstall Lorient Lacque Non-slip Reins

This bridle comes in size Full. If in doubt, measure your horse's head: the noseband should sit about two fingers below the cheekbone and you want to be able to fit two fingers underneath. Adjust the headpiece so that the browband lies flat against the forehead without pressing on the base of the ears.

For the leather, work with a damp cloth after every ride and with leather soap and a balm or grease on a regular basis. Keep the bridle dry and on a wide bridle rack, so that the headpiece holds its shape. Clean the patent leather noseband with a soft, slightly damp cloth: use no aggressive products or abrasives on it.

Check the inlaid chain and the decorative stones now and then while you are cleaning, so that you notice a loosened detail early.

This is a bridle for the rider who wants some shine and detail while still valuing a cut-back headpiece and a well-padded noseband. It suits dressage and jumping training and the moments when you want to look smart.

If you would rather have something understated, a classically made bridle in smooth leather with a simple browband from our range is the more logical choice. If you already have reins you like to ride in, you pay here for a set you do not need, and you are better off with a bridle supplied without reins. And if you ride a horse that falls outside size Full, ask us first about the options.

Adjust the headpiece so the browband lies flat against the forehead without pressing against the base of the ears. The anti-slip reins with hand stops are included.

Wipe the leather after every ride with a damp cloth and care for it regularly with leather soap and a balm or grease. Clean the patent leather noseband with a soft, slightly damp cloth, without harsh products or abrasives. Check the inlaid chain and the decorative stones as well while you clean. Store the bridle dry on a wide bridle holder.

Are the reins included?
Yes. Anti-slip reins with hand stops come with this bridle.

Which size do I need?
This bridle is offered in size Full, the usual size for a full-size horse. If in doubt, measure the nose circumference and the headpiece length of a bridle that fits well and compare the two.

Does this bridle exist 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?
The available product information describes the noseband as anatomic, cut back at jaw level, with a patent leather finish and a wide chin pad, but it does not name a noseband type. Do ask us if that point is decisive for you.

How do I care for the leather?
Wipe it after every ride with a damp cloth, clean it regularly with leather soap and then feed it with a balm or leather grease. Never let it dry next to a heat source.

What are the hand stops on the reins for?
They are crosswise leather ridges that give your hand something to hold on to, so the rein slides less easily through your fingers.

What is rounded, domed leather?
Leather finished with a curve. What lies against the head is then a rounded surface rather than a straight edge.

May I use this bridle in competition?
