FAQs

Is this headcollar suitable for turnout?

While durable, the leather construction is best suited for travel, grooming, or showing rather than long-term turnout in harsh weather.

How do I ensure the correct fit?

There should be enough space to fit two fingers between the noseband and the horse's nose, and the headpiece should not press painfully against the ears.

Can I use soap to clean the leather?

Use a dedicated leather soap or cleaner to avoid stripping the natural oils from the leather.

Does it come in different sizes?

The LeMieux Capella range is designed with adjustable points to accommodate a variety of horse head shapes and sizes.

What is the finish on the metal components?

The headcollar features high-quality brushed metal hardware for a refined, non-reflective look.

Troubleshooting

Leather becoming stiff

Clean thoroughly and apply a leather conditioner or oil to restore moisture.

Hardware feels tight or difficult to adjust

Ensure no grit or dirt is stuck in the buckle mechanisms; clean with a dry brush and apply a small amount of leather lubricant if necessary.

Headcollar sits unevenly

Adjust the double pin buckles on both sides of the headpiece equally until the crown rests centered on the poll.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality leather finish
  • Excellent pressure distribution
  • Soft padding in key contact areas
  • Stylish aesthetic with embossed branding

Cons

  • Requires regular leather cleaning and conditioning
  • Leather may stiffen if not properly maintained
  • Higher maintenance than synthetic alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the headcollar, first adjust the double pin buckles on the crown piece to ensure the cheek pieces sit comfortably just below the horse's cheekbones. Once the height is set, use the curb adjustment to ensure the noseband is positioned correctly.

Care Instructions:

  • Clean regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt and sweat.
  • Apply a high-quality leather conditioner after cleaning to keep the leather supple.
  • Avoid storing in direct sunlight or overly damp areas to prevent cracking or mold.
  • Periodically inspect all metal hardware for signs of wear or loose fastenings.
