Equi-Sential Flash Bridle with Rubber Grip Reins
Description
Equi-Sential Bridle with Padded Flash Noseband and Rubber Grip Reins
The Equi-Sential Bridle is a great quality value bridle with a raised padded flash noseband and browband, supplied complete with rubber grip reins. It is best for riders who want a dependable everyday bridle for schooling, hacking and general yard use without paying for extras they will not use.
Because the cheeks and reins have buckle ends, the bridle comes apart and goes back together in seconds, making bit changes and cleaning far quicker than stud-billet or hook-stud alternatives.

How to Use
- Check the size against a bridle that already fits your horse before first use.
- Attach the bit to the buckle-end cheekpieces and clip the reins on.
- Bridle up, then adjust the cheekpieces so the bit sits with a light wrinkle at the corners of the mouth.
- Fasten the noseband with room for two fingers underneath, then the flash strap with room for one finger.
- Check the browband sits below the base of the ears without pinching, and that the throatlash allows a hand's width.
- Wipe the leather down after riding and condition regularly to keep it supple.

FAQ
What size bridle should I order?
Measure a bridle that currently fits your horse and compare, or measure from the corner of the mouth over the poll and back down. Sizing is the most common reason bridles are returned, so it is worth checking before you order rather than guessing between pony, cob and full.
Does this bridle come with reins?
Yes. Rubber grip reins are included, so the bridle is ready to ride in once the bit is fitted.
Can the flash strap be removed?
Yes. The flash strap slides off the noseband loop if you prefer to ride in a plain padded cavesson.
Why are buckle ends useful?
Buckle-end cheeks and reins let you attach and remove the bit in seconds, which makes bit changes, tack sharing and taking the bridle apart for cleaning much faster.
Is this bridle suitable for everyday schooling and hacking?
Yes. It is a value bridle intended for regular schooling, hacking, lessons and in-hand work.
How should I care for the leather?
Wipe off sweat and mud after each use, clean with a leather cleaner and apply conditioner periodically. Check stitching, keepers and buckle holes regularly and replace any worn part.
