Help shopping for a bridle....

[Batgirl]

I seem to be after the impossible, so anyone that likes shopping for other people please help me find....
Black
Comfort/Padded
Billet fastenings
NO crank
With or without flash as I have a leather worker who will remove the flash loop for me if necessary
Nice and broad noseband (for big ginge in my signature)
Silver fixings

I am saving up for a made to measure double and want to replace my day to day/competition snaffle bridle but all I can find is crank nosebands, narrow nosebands, buckles.

Budget of about £60

Melon, honey and yoghurt for the help!

I wont take your food as these are shamefully over budget but are as per your brief otherwise

I will vouch for the sheer quality of them though! http://www.englishbridles.co.uk/sho...mSearchStartRecord=0&strParents=91&CAT_ID=124

It's a bit over budget... but have a look at Evison Equine's Hunter bridle. £89, lovely soft leather, and the one I have has worn really well

Shires might have something to suit? I have the Avignon snaffle bridle, noseband would be too fine but the comfort version is a bit chunkier?

Thanks guys, might have to up the budget, they are all nice!

Mark Todd range has one that fits your description. I nearly got one, but couldn't find a full sized one and sadly the cob size didn't fit. Think it was about £60 and seemed nice and soft. I ended up ordering a sabre Córdoba (lovely, but well over your budget).

Mine was treated to the collegiate comfort padded bridle before Christmas. It has padded comfort headpiece, wide padded noseband (I opted for flash version), no crank and billet fittings. I love it!

The photo doesn't do it justice! The leather is super soft and so supple. A bit over budget but worth every penny.

P.s I love my English bridles leather girth and stirrup leathers... But when I emailed and sent msgs via Facebook (several times) re a drop noseband they never replied
