Great bridle for the price!
I bought this bridle and a comparably priced Dover bridle so I could have options. This bridle was far superior! The leather is soft and supple and it fit better than the Dover bridle. I bought the full size for my 15.3 warmblood. My only complaint is that I have trouble getting the straps through the keepers, but I think that will get better with time.

Lovely bridle for a good price
I’m not sure why the listing doesn’t say this, but this bridle does have what you could call a wide noseband. I already had an identical bridle by Ovation, only the noseband on that one is thinner. I liked it so much, I ordered this one as well. I’m using it as my show bridle. I love the raised fancy stitch reins and especially the beautifully soft leather that stays very lovely if you care for it. My horse did step on the reins of my first bridle and break them, which was sad, but it wasn’t the bridle’s fault. If this fits your horse well, you really can’t go wrong with this product. I used this bridle when having my horse photographed as well.

Beautiful, great quality bridle!
I'm pretty picky when it comes to tack and I'm very happy with the leather quality and details of this bridle! It is very pretty, with beautiful stitching, nice quality leather, and great features such as a well padded monocrown, browband, and noseband. The leather is soft, but sturdy, and I anticipate it holding up well for many years. Of all of the bridles I've seen in this price range, this one is by far my favorite, and I'd recommend to anyone looking for a quality bridle for schooling and/or showing that won't break the bank!

LOVE
I LOVE this bridle. It came already supple but I oiled it anyways before using. I was able to use it on my previous horse before losing him in an accident. It sat (well-kept) for a few months before my new horse and its as if it was being used the entire time, soft and supple. Originally bought as a schooling bridle but would use this in the show right without hesitation

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!
