Bridle shopping

[Trixie88]

Hi everyone

So christmas is fast approaching, which means it will soon be the January sales .

I am looking at buying my loan horse a new bridle, i am going to buy her the beginning on next year, as discussed with the owner. I would like to buy her a new bridle, as the one she has is quite old. I would like some opinions as i have narrowed it down to a few. My budget is between £70 to £140. It needs to be brown, with a flash. Her current bridle is a GFS one, full size. She is a hanovarian x, so nothing to slim really.
I am getting a voucher for Rideaway, hence why i'm looking on their website.

The first one is a Jeffries

Then the Caldene one

or the Stubben

Would like you opinions/reviews on the above please.

Thanks in advance

Can't say I'm keen on any of them tbh as I'm more of a hunter type bridle person, but I can vouch for Stubben quality wise, I love my bridle.

I would get the Jeffries, I love Jeffries tack If looked after well, it will last for years...

Hi

Both Jeffreys and Stubben are really good quality, and nice briddles, however, since I started using Collegiate I wouldn't go anywhere else. I love the quality and they look great!!

I did look at the collegiate ones aswell. Is the leather really good quality?

I have just bought a Colleigate bridle from equestrian clearance half price £40.00 english leather flash noseband rubber reins and diamonte browband in havanna and am really impressed with the quality, I think normail price was £80.00 ish it was XFS but fitted my ID who has a broad forhead and wide nose very well
