HFI Luxury Headstall

Cob generally suits finer heads and smaller-framed horses, Full the average warmblood head. The safest way to choose is to measure: lay out a bridle that fits your horse well and compare the length of the noseband and the cheekpieces.

When fitting, always start at the top. Set the headpiece properly first, then bring the cheekpieces to length so the bit sits quietly in the corners of the mouth, and only adjust the noseband after that. That way you avoid using the noseband to compensate for a mistake higher up in the bridle.

With supple leather, care is mainly a matter of regularity. Wipe away sweat and sand after the ride with a damp cloth, clean the leather weekly with saddle soap and then feed it lightly with leather balm. Too much grease at once makes the leather limp; a thin layer that soaks in properly works better. Let a wet bridle dry at room temperature.

This bridle suits the rider looking for a smart, anatomically shaped bridle for everyday use and the occasional competition, without a pronounced dressage or jumping character. It is just as much at home in the dressage arena as on a training day outside.

If you specifically want a particular type of noseband, a combined noseband with flash strap or a grackle noseband for instance, look at a model in our range where that type is explicitly stated. If you would rather have a complete set with reins included, a bridle that comes supplied with reins is the more logical choice.

Fit from the top down: first the headpiece, then the cheekpieces until the bit sits quietly in the corners of the mouth, and only then the noseband. That way you do not use the noseband to compensate for a mistake higher up in the bridle. Reins are not included.

After the ride, wipe away sweat and sand with a damp cloth, clean weekly with saddle soap and then feed lightly with leather balm. A thin layer that soaks in properly works better than a lot of grease at once, which makes the leather limp. Let a wet bridle dry at room temperature.
