Ok this is a desperate plea my horse has managed to snap his strap on the headpiece on his micklem bridle.
I have been searching and searching but can't seem to find any spare parts at all, I've emailed horseware ,Rambo and micklem and had no replies at all.
If anyone knows where I can buy parts that would be fantastic, my other thought is does anyone have a broken micklem in there tack room they are looking to get rid off I would love to hear from you. Black in small or standard
Horse as I'm guessing there's probably not a massive size difference in them. Any suggestions gratefully received I have spoken to a local saddler who wouldn't make a replacement due to it being patent protected.
It seems crazy to have to buy a new one because of one broken piece
 
Have you tried phoning the factory shop? Sometimes they have parts, I picked up a browband there a few weeks ago. I didn't get anything when I emailed either.

What is your local saddler on? That's mad! Send it to me, I'll fix it for you (seriously, it's not that difficult: I make and repair most of our "not normal" tack). Or find a non-silly saddler...
 
Unfortunately I'm fairly sure it can't be repaired the strap that has broken to part of the headpiece and is made out of one complete piece of leather so I think it would need a complete replacement making, the saddler I spoke to mentioned the patent plus it's supposedly made in a specific way for the pressure. I was very surprised myself I thought he could have just made another piece

Yes, well that's what saddlers do isn't it? Make things? Like, cut up bits of leather and sew them together.....WGM (World's Gone Mad).
 
Can you really send to Horseware to fix? I contacted them to see if I could get a headpiece as mine snapped too (my fault!) and they said they don't do seperates.
