Anatomical bridle - micklem vs quantum frontier

[Walrus]

Looking to purchase an anatomical bridle in the new year. Slightly specific need as the horse has a treated sarcoid on her face that I'm trying to avoid....it is on the side of her face about exactly where a cavasson noseband lies. Looking at the bridles out there it looks like the Micklem and the quantum frontier are both the right shape to avoid the area. Any pros or cons for either one please, the quantum looks to be a lot more expensive but I've heard mickem quality and sizing can be a bit hit and miss?

Thanks

Yeah that's their cavesson not the frontier. They've confirmed the frontier is BD legal.

I have had a couple of Micklems, and haven’t had an issue with the quality of the leather! The sizing is abit funky though, but I’m sure I found a measuring guide online which helped me decide. My 15.2 is in the large horse size, although I wouldn’t say he has a particularly big head! The reg horse size was too small across the headpiece but fine elsewhere.
Can’t speak for the other brand

My micklem leather quality is more functional than quality…

Thanks, good to know.... horse has a rather large head ? so will do some research on the sizing!

Pretty sure it was this table that helped me pick the right size!
