Measuring Guide

how to measure your horse for a double show bridle

Before You Measure A Horse for a Show Double Bridle:

  • You will need a flexible measuring tape
  • Make sure your bridle is done up on the correct holes with the bits you will be using. Bits can radically change the size of bridle you require
  • Measure your already assembled bridle - no need to disassemble and make flat


Measuring A Horse for a Show Double Bridle:

  1. Take your measuring tape and measure your bradoon bit (snaffle) from end to end. Start at the corner of the bit where the leather attaches. Take the tape over the crown to the bit on the other side. Do not include the ring in the measurement, only your bridle.
  2. Now take the tape and do the same for the bit (curb). Measure the top of the bit over the crown to the top of the bit on the other side.
    Please note: We recommend as a general rule to purchase a bradoon cheekpieces one size smaller than your curb as the bradoon bits sits higher in the mouth. However, confirm your sizes from your measurements.
  3. Measure the browband from end to end
  4. Measure the circumference of the noseband. Do it up on the hole it is normally done up on. Start at the buckle and measure on the outside of the noseband around the circumference back to the buckle.

Please note: All of our measurements are on the middle holes. Please add your measurements to notes on checkout if you are unsure and we can match your measurements or will contact you if there are any queries.

BRI011 HAVANA GEL SHOW DOUBLE BRIDLE

* PLEASE NOTE THE PRICE GUIDE ON THIS RANGE IS $234.75 - $399.65 DEPENDING ON WHAT BROWBAND, NOSEBAND AND REINS YOU CHOOSE.

This Havana Gel Show Double bridle is hand crafted from the finest quality English leather and padded with our unique gel to create one of the most luxurious and comfortable bridles on the market. 

How it works

  • First select your crown piece style in the required size.
  • Select your bradoon cheek pieces in the size required.
  • Select your weymouth cheekpieces in the size required.
  • Select a browband from our large range of styles in your required size.
  • Select a suitable noseband from our range that matches your style preferences and schooling needs in the required size.
  • Select a pair of reins (optional) in the size you need from our range of options for both your snaffle and weymouth bits. 

This bridle uses our tried and tested gel padding for an unsurpassed level of comfort for your horse. Padding the headpiece, nosebands, and some browband options, this gel is activated by your horse's body heat and moulds to the shape of their head with use. 

Our Fox Hunter Double Bridle crown piece is a dedicated monocrown double bridle (cannot be used as a snaffle) that consists of a single piece of leather passing over the poll. The headpiece features our unique gel padding and is anatomically cut back behind the ears to reduce pressure. All straps of the bridle, including noseband and cheek pieces, buckle on both sides of the headpiece for a perfect fit. This results in considerably less bulk passing over the poll and reduces pressure, increasing comfort and acceptance of the bridle. The billeted cheek pieces are 4/8" wide creating a slimline, elegant picture suited to every horse. 

With the ability to select each bridle component in any size, this bridle will allow you an unsurpassed level of fit that cannot be found in standard off the shelf bridles. 

Featuring stainless steel hardware, and the highest quality leather construction, this bridle will last you years to come.

Please note our Havana leather is very dark brown in colour.
