Friend's horse had one and I really liked it, always came up looking new when it was cleaned. Have also used much bigger "named" bridles where they've not lasted as long.

Have a look at the Heritage bridles too, they're pretty alright as well

 

[Gentle_Warrior]

need to find out about size measurements too, anyone know the website ?

 

[Gentle_Warrior]

cheers teapot

I know that heritage come up much bigger than normal.

horse takes extra full in Stubben, browband even then is on snug side !! and noseband hardly does up !!!

 

[lucemoose]

I find Stubben come up snugger than normal, as do Sabre (random!) I know there are measurements of them on ebay as Carthorse was asking about them.

 

[Gentle_Warrior]

ooohhh, will go look - cheers guys, i want a normal sized horse next year !!!

I bought a J Barcley bridle off ebay last year. Its exactly the same as Rhinegold but a bit cheaper. Might be worth looking into.

 

[Gentle_Warrior]

to be honest close to giving up. have just measured croppy one I use and in the Rhinegold, i need to browband off the extra full and the headiece of the full !!!!

I may just have to continue usng my croppy one from robinsons !!!!!!!

feel glum now !!

Ah I see. Well in the link above its about your range, Ive heard good things about them but if he wants a comfy padded headpiece then not sure. Maybe they would make one up specially for you? I like the prolite paddy things..

Prittstick wanders off as she isnt being very useful!

I have similar problems with my mare, and ended up making one up from parts that I bought from my local saddler - they had loads of choice and I have ended up with a nice bridle that does match - it meant that i was able to get a full cheekpieces with extra full browband. May be worth a look?

Cheap and nasty quality IMO. My one was horrid.

I bought a rhinegold/heritage one for lungeing in. I don't like it at all. Saving for another Elevator, or possibly an Albion.
