Kieffer bridles?

[MarinaBay]

I am on the hunt for a new bridle. Can anyone tell me what they think of the Kieffer bridles? I am looking at the Ergonomic Bridle.

Angel is between a cob size and full size, do they come up big?

If not can anyone recommend me another bridle, I want really soft leather but don't really want to spend over £100?

Thanks for your help!

i bought a collegiate bridle today, it was £69.99 and has reasonably soft leather, i really like it but obviously i know its not the same league as a Kieffer really, but i like it enough (for now at least

)

I am not sure about Kieffer Bridles but these ones are fantastic

I have the collegiate one which is the cheaper version of this and that is really good quality. I would have brought a Crosby one though as they are gorgeous but couldn't afford it at the time.

I have a kieffer bridle and saddle. Beautiful! Full size is fine on my Selle Francais. She has a typical warmblood head, small nose and deep through the throat/cheeks, but my bridle is adjustable both sides of the throat lash so fits well. I usally struggle to get a full to fit her round the throat. The leather is fantasic quality, like everything german (i think??)!

Yes, they do come up big in my experience.

Thanks for yor replies... I have a Welsh D, full size nose band and brow band on most bridles but the rest cob.... do you think I will be ok with cob in the Kieffer range, if they come up big?

I love my Keiffer bridle, lovely leather, nicely padded headpiece and smart. I've got a full size on my ISH and it's got plenty of room in it for adjustment except for the noseband. The noseband fits, there's just no room for adjustment cos it only just fits.

Agree - the noseband comes up small, especially on the orgonomic crank. I have two, one with a normal noseband which is slightly bigger than the crank.

The leather is very soft and supple after 3 yrs of almost daily use they still look brand new.

I have a Kieffer bridle, the all padded one, not the ergonomic one (i wanted that one but my mum thought mine looked comfier!) but the bridle comes up quite big. I have a cob size on my conny head when usually shes a big cob/small full and the noseband fits her perfectly *but* she has the typical conny smaller nose.

my boy has a HUGE head and the kieffer full size fitted him fine. I loved my kieffer.... but some sod nicked it, so we are without now.

I've got the Kieffer comfort bridle adn love it.... nosebands tend to come up small but the rest is fine....
