Remote Bridle Fitting
We have 9 different headpieces for differing head conformations, so it is very difficult for an owner to choose the PERFECT one.
That is where we come in, to do it for you and will guarantee a perfect fit for your horse.
How we remotely fit bridles
After successfully fitting almost 100 bridles remotely, we now offer this FREE service to all customers and we GUARANTEE a perfect fit, every time.
Specific photographs must be sent which are EXACTLY like the one in the example below. We will determine the style of headpiece required and the size (and style if important for the fit) of each bridle part. We cannot do this if the photo is of a Micklem bridle though.
You don't need to size the parts. All you do is measure the parts of the bridle that is in the photo that you have sent. We then determine what size parts you need to buy.
You send the specific photos of your horse in the bridle and if any part needs to be exchanged - which is very rare - it is done free of charge.
The bridle must be fitted with the bit that you intend to use, as this could alter the style of headpiece required.
If you are unsure of the bit you need, or if you think that your current bit could be better, then please book a consultation with a bit/bridle fitter - Bit and bridle fitters as it is impossible to remotely fit bits.
Above Is The Photo I Need
If you send a photo of your horse in the current bridle, it must be EXACTLY like this one - a side-shot with the head in the ridden position, soft contact, ears forward, camera pointed at mid cheek.
The headpiece must be centrally placed on the horse, so please check this from both sides.
The photo must be with the bit that you are going to use. If you have any doubts about the bit, then please book a consultation with one of our Bit and Bridle Fitters.
I need one both with and without the browband and from both sides.
Examples of Photos That We Cannot Use For Fitting
This photo is no use to us as the focus is wrong and the horse's head is not straight. This bridle is a dreadful fit!
This photo is no use as it is not a side shot and you can't see the back of the ear for the headpiece style required.
Example of a Remote Anatomical Bridle Fitting
Lovely horse, who is now far more comfortable.
The pressure from the inward curve of the headpiece at the base of the ear - GONE.
Pressure on the temporal muscles - GONE
Impingement on the TMJ - GONE
Noseband restriction - GONE

Please attach photos exactly the same as the photo shown. Get a friend to help you. A carrot usually gets the ears forwards and the head in the correct position.
Don't forget to have a light contact on the reins and the camera pointed at mid-cheek. We will then contact you and take it from there, but there is no obligation to eventually buy the bridle.
