Key features and design principles
Design and Purpose
- A short strap of the same high-quality, vegetable-tanned leather used in other EcoRider products.
- Its specific purpose is to convert EcoRider Perfect Fit nosebands— Comfort and the Show Comfort—for use on a traditional bridle headpiece.
Attachment Method
- The strap is designed to attach to the noseband itself.
- This creates a loop of leather that goes up over the horse’s poll.
- This setup is similar to how a traditional hunting bridle or a single-crown piece bridle is constructed.
Universal Compatibility
- The beauty of this strap is its “universal” nature allowing riders to easily mix and match components.
- This is perfect for riders who want to use a specific EcoRider noseband for its anatomical benefits but don’t want to buy an entire new bridle, or who prefer a different brand’s headpiece.
Functionality
- By using this strap, the noseband is no longer part of a monocrown design.
- Instead, it becomes a separate piece of the bridle that passes over the poll, just like a traditional noseband hanger.
- This allows for more independent adjustment between the noseband and the headpiece, which can be useful for achieving a precise fit.
High-Quality Eco-Leather
- As with other EcoRider products, the headpiece is crafted from high-quality vegetable-tanned, leather.
- This material is not only durable but also becomes softer and more comfortable with use, developing a beautiful patina over time.
