High quality for a low price
I have a 17.2hh thoroughbred and ordered the horse size. I originally bought the oversize and it was way too big. The oversize in this model would only fit a giant draft! i love that the bridle was supple and easy to piece together right out of the box. I'm pleased!

O/S is HUGE
This bridle is high quality and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a simple, well made schooling bridle. However, the over size is absolutely gigantic. I have a 17.2hh thoroughbred with a very long face and this bridle just barely fits him. The browband is definitely too big (stick out a bit from his head) and the cheek pieces are on the last hole. I've always ordered oversize for him, but this one must be made for a Clydesdale or Shire or some type of massive, wide headed breed! I will probably end up exchanging it for the full/horse size, which I bet will actually size as an oversize.
Would be helpful is Smartpak listed the sizing dimensions of the bridle under the description

Nice All around bridle
Needed an inexpensive bridle to use while leasing/trial on a horse. I loved this bridle since it was easy to put together, decent leather and it was already pretty soft. Everyone at the barn was impressed with the stitching and the looks of it for the price.

Nice schooling bridle for the price
I bought a cob size for my big-headed pony as a schooling bridle and for the price, I am satisfied so far. It is attractive (despite her huge head!) and the quality seems fine for what it is. It ran true to size and looks pretty much as depicted in the photo online. I haven't had it long enough to say how it will break in and hold up, but so far so good.

great value!
I bought this bridle a couple of weeks ago just to school in. It is actually much better quality than I thought it would be and the leather is very soft. Honestly, I could probably show in it if I really needed to. Great deal!

Absolutely amazing bridle!
We had a horrible barn fire in January of 2015 and I lost everything, I was in need of new tack fast and the price of this bridle was perfect for what I needed. The bridle came in already soft and ready to use! This bridle fits my large warmblood and various other horses of different size perfectly. This is easy to clean, I totally recommend!

Gorgeous!
Bought this to fit my new horse, came soft ready to go for the show we had the next day. Beautiful dark color and I love the white stitching details. Cob fit my small quarter horse perfectly. Haven't had it long enough to review durability, but the leather is high quality

Good bridle for schooling
This is a great schooling bridle for the price. After almost a year of use, the browband has some rubs where it lost color, but other wise is in pretty good shape. It isn't butter soft, but it's very serviceable all the same.

Nice schooling bridle
I bought this bridle as a schooling bridle and its nice. I had to really oil it and use different reins though. The reins that came with it are tough and won't break in. That's OK for me cause I had a different pair that I use. Its not a show piece but it is great for schooling.

Good bridle at first glance, but then had problems
I have had this bridle for at least 6mo. At first I thought it was perfect for schooling and that it would really hold up. The color on the reins has rubbed off, so now there is a tan colored leather showing, that I can't even darken. The braids in the reins never got soft with copious oiling, the edges of the braiding are still very stiff/sharp and makes my hands sore. My main issue is that the buckle on the noseband does not have piece of leather as a guard to keep it from pinching. The buckle rubs and makes my mare's skin raw and sometimes scabs up. Having to put fleece underneath for comfort. I've had many other schooling quality bridles but never had these problems arise.

Darker than expected
Thought the quality seems nice, I'm still pretty disappointed. I bought this bridle because of the color advertised in the photo- that beautiful reddish brown color. The bridle is extremely dark brown- I'm afraid to oil it in fear of turning it black. I would like to keep it because of the quality, but honestly its a totally different color than my other tack. So disappointing!

Beautiful bridle and great price
I bought this for my daughter's new horse. He has a somewhat large head and it fits him well. It's is stitched beautifully looking like it cost much more. Great value!

Great for the price
got this as a schooling bridle for my lease horse. It's nice leather for the price - way better than anything else I've seen at this price. It was a bit stiff when I got it but it's softening up with use and leather conditioner.

Great Value!
I bought this bridle in a cob size for my arabian mare about a month ago. It fits her beautifully as well as being a great bridle overall. Was very nice and supple to begin with. I love everything about this bridle! The stitching also makes it look like a more expensive bridle, and my friends' jaws drop when I tell them what I paid for it.

Bought this as a cheap bridle for a Shire Sporthorse that I'm backing. Full size was too small but o/s was too big. By punching extra holes in the headstall I've made it work but it must be made for a huge head! Quality is pretty good for the price - will need some oiling to soften it up.

Great Bridle
I was shocked by the high quality of this bridle.... especially for the price! Very happy with this purchase. I got an engraved nameplate as well and it looked beautiful and was done on high quality brass. This is a great bridle for schooling and lower level shows. I got a cob size which ran a little small but fit the Arabian/Morgan cross I bought it for.
