The King Edward bridle is a creation developed in collaboration with Henrik von Eckermann, the world champion in Show Jumping and Olympic Medalist. This bridle is designed for all types of horses, even for the most sensitive ones that require a soft and adjustable bridle to perform at their best.
Features
NOSEBAND
For this bridle, we've developed a specially designed noseband for ultimate pressure relief. The U-shaped noseband ensures an optimal fit with soft padding throughout. Buckles on each side allow precise fitting for individual horses. Placing the noseband avoids pressure on cheekbones and sensitive nerve endings like the infraorbital nerve. This design also keeps teeth free from pressure, making it beneficial for horses with teeth-related issues. The higher strap prevents the bridle from moving forward to the horse's eyes, avoiding irritation. The padded flash buckle, allowing adjustment from both ways, ensures it stays in place without pinching.
HEADPIECE
Creating the King Edward Bridle introduced a revolutionary headpiece. The air channel over the poll and neck's highest part provides maximum freedom for sensitive nerve pathways, muscle attachments, and ligaments. Soft leather covers the air channel for easy cleaning, and two smaller pillows at the top ensure optimal placement. Padded edges, extending from the leather base, keep the neckpiece in place, avoiding pressure and rubbing. The malleable foam on the inside moulds to the horse's shape for maximum comfort. Equipped with stoppers, the headband ensures the browband stays in place.
CHEEK PIECES
This bridle features a new version of cheek pieces, tensioned independently and adjustable with multiple holes to accommodate different bits.
BROWBAND
Softly padded on the inside for comfort and avoiding rubbing, the U-shaped design prevents pressure on the horse's forehead and eye socket. Rubber on the inside ensures it stays in place under tough conditions. Note: This browband does not have our Click-It? design.
RUBBER-COVERED KEEPERS
All keepers have rubber on the inside, keeping them securely in place even during the toughest challenges.
DETAILS & CARE
Handmade in vegetable tanned leather.
Apply oil or balm before you use it for the first time. Repeated oiling is beneficial. Clean the leather using leather soap after each use.

FAQ
All your questions, answered.
The thermoneutral zone is the temperature range where the body can maintain its core temperature with little to no extra energy expenditure. For humans, this range is quite narrow at 21–28 °C, but for horses it’s much broader at 5–25 °C.
This difference means we should avoid rugging horses based on how cold we feel. Over-rugging can lead to serious health issues, including metabolic problems and thermoregulatory dysfunction.
Tips for Choosing a Winter Rug Weight
-
Clipped horses may need a heavier gram fill to stay comfortable.
-
Remember: horses warm themselves more easily than they cool down under a rug. If unsure, choose a lighter rug.
-
Check your horse regularly to make sure they are neither too hot nor too cold.
-
Consider your horse’s age and natural ability to stay warm.
-
As a general guide, rugging is usually appropriate when temperatures drop below 5–10 °C, but always adjust for your horse’s individual needs.
-
Always ensure rugs are waterproof. A wet rug is worse than no rug at all.
This is an indicative guide only. Always take into account factors such as wind chill, your horse’s age, weight, and condition.
