Create a whole new wardrobe to match your riding apparel or suit the mood for the day, by just switching out a beautiful browband to mix and match with headpieces and halter parts that you already own.Make your own Halter Bridle combination with this browband and using your own headpiece and any halter
- or just replace an existing browband
- or bling up any halter by using the interior velcro lined loops that are engineered to prevent the browband from sliding down on halters.
If you ever had trouble with holding a bit with dangling bit hangers in your hand while trying to put the bit into your horse\'s mouth of a regular halter bridle, but like the idea of being able to take the bit off and leave the halter on easily. Than this may be the solution for you.
Instructions for one way to create a halter bridle combo:
Just put any halter you have on your horse.
- Using a regular headstall(no throatlatch) that you own, run the poll piece throughthe interiorVelcrolined loops of the browband.You can choose to put the poll piece through 3 positions in the interior loop - forward, middle or back of the loop, by moving the clear keeper bands. Move the clear keeper bands close to each side of your poll piece to create a snug fit. See item description pictures near the end to view detail blow up of loop and poll piece insertion.
- Bridle your horse like you normally would a regular bridle (without throatlatch).
- Use the snap attachments to wrap around the poll piece of your halter on each side and snap to the browband.
- You now have a halter bridle combo.
- The bit is easy to remove without having to take the halter off.
- No throat latch necessary.
- It is fun to mix match your own collection of rope or web halters to create different combinations of halter bridles.
- With theVelcrolining in the interior loops and the slider keeper bands, you can remove the browband and put it on a halter to bling up rope or web halters and hackamores without having to worry about the browband sliding down the sides.
- We have also been told by some of our friends that the snap attachments make it easier for them to bridle an ear shy horse, when you get the appropriate size.
Materials:
- 3/4\" Gorgeous PURPLE - Weaver Leather brand -, quality, Soft, Heavy Duty Nylon. See last picture for Weaver Leather\'s nylon webbing color chart.
- Pretty Southwestern native embroidered trim sewn on on black beta biothane to give stability and more dimension to the trim. This is than sewn on the browband.
- StainlessSteel Center Ring with Acrylic ,Glass opaque and foil lined Czech beads, silver plated end dangles bead strands.
- Silver colored ,non rusting, heavy duty line 24 snaps.
- Interior loops are lined with velcro . These loops have clear, moveable bands that help you position the poll piece inserted towards the front, middle or back of the interior loop and keeps the loop tight to prevent sliding down on poll pieces. Room for 2 poll pieces or 1 wide poll piece up to 1.75\" wide..
- PLEASE BE aware that colors for pictures can vary depending upon the monitor setttings of your device as well as colors photograph differently in full sunlight versus indoors or in the shade. I have included the Weaver Leather Nylon color chart for comparison.
Measurements -
- 13.5\"between loops on browband not counting the loops.
- 1.75\" each interior loops on browband. These loops are positioned and used like loops on a regular browband, room for 2 poll pieces if needed.
- 2\" each exterior snap loops
- End to end with the snaps shut, stretched out, measured along the top, this is about 19.5\".
To estimate whether this will fit your horse.
- Get a regular straight non padded browband that fits your horse now.
- Measure across the front of the brow band between the 2 poll piece loops. This corresponds to the 13.5\" measurement for this browband.
- The interior loops are made to use like the loops on your browband, but are larger than average size loops withmovablekeeper bands so that you can position your poll piece towards the front, middle or back of the loop for a better fit on different size poll/crown pieces
- If you want the center ring to drape you will need about 1 to 2 inches more than the measurement for a straight browband. See the photo showing an American Paint Horse that wears average size \"off the rack\" tack wearing a center ring in different sizes.
- Please be aware that if you are wrapping the snap loop around a wide halter to create a halter bridle combo that the browband will be pulled backwards, so will need a little extra length, compared to just being used with only a bridle .
- The browband cannot drape unless you are using the interior loops to hold up the browband. If you will only be using the snap loops to wrap around the poll pieces, as in the case for an ear shy horse, you need to compare the total length of this with the total length of your browband. In this case, the browband must be worn like a straight browband .
- If you will not be using the interior loops to keep the browband up, but will only be using the snap loops, compare the total measurement of 19.5\" to make sure this browband will not be too big.
- This size is usually worn by horses where \"off the rack\" average size horse browbands are just a little bit too big when the interior loops are used to hold up the browband. If only the exterior snap loops are used to wrap around a poll piece, as in the case of an ear shy horse, this will fit a horse that wears a much larger browband, see total end to end measurement.
- My horses that wear a 14\" straight browband (measured without loops), wear a 14 or 15\" center ring and a 16\" V. My Arabians that wear a 13\" straight browband, wear a 13 or 14\" center ring and a 15\" V. (When the Interior velcro lined loops are used to hold up the browband).
- PLEASE MEASURE your horse, because I have had people that had ponys whose forehead measured out at 16\" wide and warmbloods that measured only 12\" wide!!!!!!!!!
- The pictured horse is an example of a 15H, 900lb refined Pinto Arabian that is modeling a similar style in a 14.5\" center ring with the poll piece inserted in the interior loops and the exterior loops wrapped around a rope halter.

Please LOOK at the pictures and READ ALL of the description, I try to fairly describe each item as accurately as possible BUT you must make the final decision on whether or not this will fit your horse or bridle! Even thoughI will be VERY SAD if you buy this browband and it does not fit, I cannotbe held responsible for determining what fits your horse. The best I can do is give you detail measurements and picture examples. This is FAR better than buying a saddle on that ends up notfittingyour horse and there is no return on it. I have several saddles that I have bought where that has happened to me, not to mention all of the riding clothes over flowing my closet that have the same label size with differing measurements.
This is designed to snap around your own halter to create a halter bridle combination, BUT you can use it as a regular browband. This browband just has more options on how it can be worn and used.Endurance tack shops sell this as a \"convert a bridle\" style of browband.Lots of people make them. I custom make these for Just4FunTack .
Please email me if you have questions.
Most browbands that I post on are offered at a price of \" less than the cost of materials\" after subtracting out shipping/packing/labeling costs, /Paypal fees, etc, so are a great deal IF they fit your horse.
I also make this same browband in Weaver Leather brand nylon webbing in their : Blaze Orange, Purple, Turquoise, Black,Florescent Hot Pink, Hunter Green, Navy, Blue, Red, Dark Red, Burgundy and Raspberry. See the Last picture in the picture gallery for color chart.
