Bridle, what do you think?

[piaffe]

I quite like this bridle. V's it too big for him and he has a tiny head. Thought a rolled bridle would look nice on him.

However, it says its black but blue caveson. Does that mean it has blue padding? I dont get it and cant see any blue in the picture.

It is a very nice bridle, have to agree though i can't actually see any blue in the picture

 

[CastleMouse]

*I think* it means that every piece of the bridle is black, except for the noseband, which is blue leather

 

[Christmas_Kate]

yes, I presume it's one of those with blue padding.

 

[piaffe]

Hmmm, But i dont want bloody blue padding! LOL

I blew up the pics and can't see any blue?? Perhaps it'd be best to send a message and ask for some extra pics of the "blue"? I think a rolled bridle would really suit V though!

 

[piaffe]

Yes, I might do that.

Glad someone else thinks it would suit him.

Just to be devils advocate:

Rolled bridles are a strange thing and to get the fitting right on them is a pain in the ar**. We gave up having them made as the adjustment is just on the top so is only a few inches compared to a normal bridle which generally has over 10 inches of adjustment.

There is a good reason why the best ones cost £150+

Personally I think they only look good on arabs, but thats just my opinion.

What we need is one of those web sites that show a photo of you with a new hair do over the top - only with your horse with a new bridle!

I like the ones with white padding - look great on dressage horses but terrible on a hook!

 

[piaffe]

Thanks for that.

TBH, I really want a black with white padded bridle but cant find one

Am running out of options

You can see the colour difference if you look at the bridle in havana

[piaffe]

oooooooh, I see. Surprisingly unstylish I'd say!

That'll be a no then!

Thanks

Must admit I don't like it either.

Now if it was baby blue (patches colour scheme) ........ PMSL!!!!!

 

[piaffe]

lol. Think i will have to go back to trying to find a black/white one!

 

[sillygillyhorse]

Think Passier or Otto Schumacher (sp?) do one but be prepared to pay hansomely for one. have a look at www.classicdressage.co.uk I had my rolled bridle made to measure for less than the ones on classic dressage. could have any colour, style noseband/buckles etc. Have to say not over keen on the blue padding.

What size?

I have a Treadstone bridle, but not with white padding. This one looks a bit too chunky on the nose band for V

This is a pony size one (I have a feeling on another post you said pony sized was what you need). Bit cheap though so no idea on quality.

EDITED TO ADD: What about this one on Equestrian Clearance, I know it's silver or gold piping, but looks very nice.
