Cottage Craft Cavesson Bridle Brown

How to measure your horse for a bridle

We would suggest using a soft tape measure or alternatively you can use a piece of string and then measure the string if your horse is head shy.

Step one - Headpiece including cheek pieces:

Measure from one side of your horse’s mouth to the other, over the top of their poll where you would expect the bridle to sit. Take your horses regular bit and measure the bit ring diameter, times this by two and minus this measurement from the one just taken, this will give you a good idea on what setting you will be on. This will give you your headpiece and cheekpiece measurement which you can use to see which bridle size will suit your horse best. The measurements indicated on the size guide are the bridle on the smallest setting to the largest setting.

Step two – Noseband:

Measure the circumference of your horse’s nose where you would expect the noseband to sit on your horse’s head. A good way to check if you are unsure is to measure two fingers width below the cheekbone. This will give you your approximate noseband measurement which you can use to see which bridle size will suit your horse best. The measurements indicated on the size guide are the noseband on the smallest setting to the largest setting. When fitting a noseband, you should be able to at minimum fit two fingers under the noseband when fastened, this will ensure a comfortable but secure fit.

Step three – Decision time:

Using the measurements you have taken from the above two steps you will be able to review each size chart and decide on which size will be the best fit for your horse. Take note that different bit styles can have an impact on the fit of the bridle. So, if you intend to use a few different bit styles on your horse, depending on the discipline or situation, then it is best to take the above measurements with a few different bits you plan to use on your horse.
