| I am after a full sized black bridle. Must be soft, supple leather - not synthetic Noseband a must! Must be a reasonable price as it will only be a work bridle! Does not need to come with a bit (already have too many!) Would prefer brands such as: - Collegiate - Kieffer - Anky - Jeremy & Lord Thanks  |

i have a few of these.... in the past their quality was excellent but more recently (last 12 months) i've not been happy with the quality... the leather kind of fluffs and pills on the underside.
i actually have one i will sell if youre interested ATJ.... it's FSS (from that site) but with a grackle noseband, i used it when i was eventing. it has a pretty irredecent diamante v browband on it too... and rubber grip reins..... |

| no photo right now sorry but could later.... it's used but lovely leather... only thing is it's quite long, too long for ellie (she has a short fat kind of head  but i bought it for my 15hh arab, and it fit him well - i think i punched an extra hole in it for him. probably like $50? i'd have to have a good look at it! |
