What does Kincade make?
Kincade is a broad everyday tack brand rather than a single specialist product line. In this collection you'll find bridlework and nosebands, lunging and training equipment, girths and girth accessories, reins, and grooming tools. It's the kind of range riders reach for when they want dependable, sensibly priced kit for daily schooling, hacking and yard use.
Which Kincade range is right for me?
The collection breaks down into a few clear groups. Use the table below as a quick guide to what each is best suited to.
| Range / type | What's in it | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Bridles & nosebands | Cavesson, flash, hunt and grackle bridles and nosebands, browbands | Everyday schooling and showing turnout |
| Lunging & training | Lunge reins, lunge cavessons, side reins, draw reins, training systems | Groundwork, schooling on the lunge and building topline |
| Girths & accessories | Anti-chafe shaped girths, dressage girths, girth sleeves | Comfort behind the elbow and reducing rubs |
| Reins | Rubber, one-sided rubber and leather draw reins | Extra grip in wet weather or for stronger contact |
| Grooming | Wooden mane & tail brushes, body brushes | Daily coat and mane care |
How do I choose the right size and fit?
Bridlework and nosebands come in pony, cob and full sizes, so check your horse's usual bridle size before ordering. Nosebands, in particular, should sit correctly and never be over-tightened — if you're new to fitting a cavesson, flash or grackle, it's worth having an instructor or a qualified saddle fitter check the position and tension. The same care applies to any bit-related or spur item: fit with a professional and prioritise your horse's comfort over a snug look. Girths are measured in inches or centimetres from buckle to buckle; measure an existing girth that fits well and match the length.

Kincade FAQs
Is Kincade a good value tack brand?
Kincade is positioned as an affordable everyday brand. It's popular with riders who want dependable schooling and yard kit — bridles, lunging gear, girths and reins — without paying premium prices. It's a sensible choice for daily use and for building up a first set of tack.
What does the Kincade collection include?
This collection has 76 Kincade products covering bridles and nosebands (cavesson, flash, hunt and grackle), lunging and training equipment such as lunge reins, side reins, lunge cavessons and draw reins, anti-chafe girths and girth sleeves, rubber and leather reins, plus wooden grooming brushes.
How much do Kincade products cost?
In-stock Kincade items in this collection currently range from around £2.69 for small accessories like a braided spur strap up to about £37.35 for leather elastic side reins, with plenty of everyday bridlework, lunging gear and girths in between.
How do I fit a Kincade noseband correctly?
A noseband should sit level and allow room beneath it — the guideline for many cavesson types is roughly two fingers' width. It should never be fitted tight enough to restrict the jaw. If you're unsure, ask a qualified instructor or saddle fitter to check the position and tension for your horse.
What size girth do I need?
Girths are sized in inches or centimetres from buckle to buckle. The easiest method is to measure an existing girth that already fits your horse well and match the length. Kincade's shaped anti-chafe girths aim to reduce rubbing behind the elbow.
