Our Horseware Micklem® 2 Competition Bridle with Rubber Reins is an all-in-one solution to superior anatomical comfort, experience and performance. The Horseware Micklem® 2 Bridle eliminates discomfort caused by nerve pressure around the sensitive poll and ear area. With its intelligent arrangement, it prevents concerns over internal mouth damage and associated discomfort and pain due to unnecessary tongue pressure.It has been created with an eco vegetable tanned leather which makes it soft and supple and has a very luxurious look.
This unique bridle design continues to alleviate pressure on facial nerves to eliminate any risk of pain and numbness in the lower half of your horse's face. At the same time, the noseband ensures there is no discomfort or breathing restriction, which can be associated with low fitting dropped nosebands. The accompanying Micklem® Rubber Reins are styled in the same quality leather with a blended rubber design offering exceptional grip, even in wet weather.
A stunning bridle and reins combination that you and your horse will both love!
Material and Care
Materials
Eco-tanned Buffalo Leather.
Care
Hand Wash
Washing instructions
Before you use a new leather product for the first time, make sure you oil it thoroughly. Oiling tack makes it supple and prevents it from drying out and cracking or breaking during use. After an initial cleaning, follow regular wash instructions.
Care for your leather regularly with a damp sponge and saddle soap to retain a soft, solid leather. It is essential for leather care and must be used liberally, always before hydrating the leather with a conditioner.
Use warm water to dampen a sponge. Squeeze any excess water out of the sponge before using it. Wipe down all the pieces of the bridle to remove sweat, dirt and grease. Allow the leather to dry naturally before applying saddle soap. This will help to remove any stubborn dirt or grease left over.
Pay particular attention to cleaning areas of your bridle that are typically under pressure during riding and exposed to saliva, such as bit straps, bottom back strap, and reins where they come in contact with bit.
It is recommended that you regularly apply conditioner. Completely dismantle your bridle when applying conditioner and apply with a soft cloth or sponge. Apply the conditioner once you have cleaned your leatherwork with saddle soap.
Storage instructions
Once clean and dry, reassemble your bridle and loop reins through top back strap for storage.
A climate-controlled environment is best for tack. Dry heat will make leather brittle, while humidity can cause it to mould and mildew.
Storing your bridle in a fleece lined bridle bag will help prevent moisture.
