Beautiful Bridle, Weird Fit
I was really excited for this bridle after reading the reviews, and if it fit my Arabian better, I think I would give this five stars. I ordered a cob size. The leather quality, as mentioned in other reviews, is INCREDIBLE for the price. It is butter soft right out of the bag. Unfortunately, the crown piece was too long for my horse, which made the brow band sit too low and hit some pressure points on his face. The throat latch was really tight even on the last hole. So in summary, if it fits, you'll love this bridle. If it doesn't, you'll be sad like me. :)

runs small but amazing leather
I bought this for my 15.3 WB who usually wears a cob size, and it was too small so I had to exchange. but from the seconds i took it out of the package, it felt even more supple than a $300 hunter bridle which seems to be the going rate for a decent quality one for the show ring. This bridle checks all the boxes for a fraction of the price!

Quality and affordable! Finally!
I've been really frustrated with bridles for the past few years. Unless you spend over $300 on a bridle, the quality is disappointing. This one feels like a $300 bridle! A friend of mine had one years ago and I was impressed then so I went ahead and bought one and am in love. If I could change one thing it would be to not have OVATION stamped on the crown piece so noticeably but that's it! Oh and I would love more color choices but the dark brown is fine. The browband is actually long enough and the leather is so supple! We get tons of compliments on it!

Quality bridle.
Right out of the package the leather was soft and supple. Great bridle for the price. Nice enough for the show ring.

Nice Bridle with Short Reins
I bought this a month or so ago and just tried it out this weekend. I ordered the full size and it fit my average head sized horse properly on the smallest holes. When I tried to ride though, the reins were to short to even use. I measured them at 54". The bridle quality is good but seems to need conditioning but with the added costs of replacement reins, you may want to look at something different, unless your horse has a very short neck.

Nice bridle for the price
This is a nicely made bridle and, although I did oil it after trying it, it was nice and supple when it arrived. The cob size fits my quarter horse well but the throat latch is a bit shorter than expected. The noseband is a bit wider than expected. I was disappointed that the brown color is so darn dark. Another reviewer said she put it next to a black bridle and it was only slightly lighter in color. I also put mine next to my black dressage bridle and had the same result.

Beautiful Bridle
Right out of the box, I was impressed with this bridle. The leather was soft and supple, with an already broken in feeling.
The color is a great espresso brown, and neutral enough to match warmer and cooler takes on the dark brown trend. The noseband is very nicely padded, and the overall style is very simple and elegant. Unfortunately, my gelding appears to be between sizes in the noseband, and I will sadly be returning the bridle.

Nice but noseband is wide
I was sorry to have to return this. The noseband is wide. Otherwise a nice bridle for the price.
