LeMieux Bridle Mattress Quilted Suede Headpiece Support
Description
LeMieux Bridle Mattress - Cushioned Suede Support for Bridle Storage
The LeMieux Bridle Mattress is a quilted suede pad that fixes to a bridle hook and cushions the headpiece of your bridle while it hangs in storage. It is best for riders, grooms and livery yards who want to stop bridle headpieces creasing, warping or sticking to a narrow hook, at home or when travelling.
Keeping the headpiece supported helps the rest of the bridle hang correctly, so the leather holds its shape between rides. An embossed name holder makes kit easy to identify in a shared tack room, and the design coordinates with the LeMieux Saddle Mattress for a matching set-up.

How to Use
- Choose a securely mounted bridle hook or rack in your tack room, lorry or trailer.
- Wrap the mattress over the hook so the quilted suede face sits uppermost.
- Fasten the hook and loop straps firmly around the hook so the mattress cannot slide.
- Add your name or yard details to the embossed name holder.
- Hang the clean, conditioned bridle so the headpiece rests centrally on the padded surface.
- Brush off dust regularly and allow the mattress to dry naturally away from direct heat.
FAQ
What does a bridle mattress actually do?
It cushions the headpiece where it rests on the bridle hook. A narrow hook can crease or mark the leather over time, and a supported headpiece allows the rest of the bridle to hang correctly rather than warping or sticking.
Will it fit my bridle hook?
The mattress attaches with hook and loop straps, so it wraps around and fastens onto standard bridle hooks and racks. Check that your hook is securely fixed to the wall before hanging a bridle on it.
Can I use it in a lorry or trailer?
Yes. It is designed for travel as well as home use, so it is well suited to a lorry tack locker or trailer bridle hook on the way to shows and clinics.
Does it suit a double bridle as well as a snaffle bridle?
Yes. It supports the headpiece, so it works with snaffle, double and hunter bridles alike.
How do I clean it?
Brush off dust and dried mud regularly and allow it to dry naturally away from direct heat. Store bridles clean and conditioned so oils are not transferred onto the suede.
Does it match other LeMieux storage?
It complements the LeMieux Saddle Mattress, so bridle and saddle storage can be coordinated in the same tack room.
