We donate 5% of the profits from this bridle to World Horse Welfare to help horses in need around the world (Registered charity no: 206658 and SC038384). * NOSEBANDS Together with Henrik, we have developed a classic Aachen noseband for maximum comfort. One noseband is slightly wider to distribute pressure over the nose bridge and is softly padded. The other noseband is a formable, round-stitched noseband that provides a more direct pressure and a sharper effect. Thanks to all the options, the bridle is ideal for those who need to switch between two different nosebands or use the same bridle on different horses. We also offer increased adjustability where the noseband has more and closer holes so it can be fully customized for each individual. * HEADPIECE The unique headpiece has a generous air tunnel in the soft padding to provide maximum freedom for the sensitive nerve pathways, muscle attachments, and ligaments that all attach to the neck. The headpiece is wide to distribute pressure over a larger area and allow the horse to relax naturally. * CHEEKPIECES Our cheek pieces are specially designed to reduce pressure from the neck through our elastic CradlesTM. A Vagga is an extra elastic band that the bit should rest on. The elastic band is located in the cheek pieces by the bit, as well as in our reins. The idea is that they should act elastically and provide a higher degree of comfort for the horse, allowing the bit to "bounce." This should relieve teeth and jaws from static pressure. Many believe that horses prefer this type of bridle and that it can be more gentle and horse-friendly than traditional bridles and reins. The Cradles on this bridle are sewn in place, making them more suitable for jumping, but they can be used just as well for dressage at home. * BROWBAND The browband has a U-shaped design to avoid pressure on the horse's forehead and eye socket. The browband has rubber on the inside of the buckle to ensure that it stays in place during the ride. * RUBBER-COVERED KEEPERS All keepers are equipped with rubber on the inside to keep them in place even during the toughest of challenges.
