Product Information

Full details

The HKM Sydney Style Head Collar is designed for horse owners seeking a balance of comfort and practical reliability for daily stable use or training sessions. Featuring soft padding on the noseband and browband, it minimizes pressure on sensitive areas of the horse's head, though users should ensure the fit is correctly adjusted to maintain these comfort benefits without allowing for rubbing.

FAQs

Is this collar suitable for turnout?

While it is durable enough for supervised stable use, always consider if your horse requires a breakaway safety collar for unsupervised turnout.

How do I choose the right size?

The collar is available in Shetland, Pony, Cob, and Full sizes. Measure your horse's head circumference and compare it to standard sizing guides for your specific breed.

Can the padding be removed?

No, the padding is permanently integrated into the design for optimal stability and comfort.

Is the material machine washable?

Hand washing is recommended to preserve the integrity of the buckles and padding over time.

Does it come with a lead rope?

No, the lead rope is sold separately.

Troubleshooting

Snap clip becomes difficult to open

Clear any debris or grit from the spring mechanism and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant.

Head collar is rubbing the horse's face

Verify the fit. You may need to loosen the noseband or crownpiece adjustment to ensure the padded sections are correctly positioned.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Padded contact points improve horse comfort
  • Snap clip allows for one-handed operation
  • Durable webbing material suitable for daily use
  • Ergonomic fit keeps the collar secure and stable

Cons

  • Padding requires regular cleaning to prevent grime buildup
  • Not intended for heavy-duty turnout if a breakaway collar is preferred
  • Limited to one colorway

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the head collar, adjust the crownpiece and noseband buckles so that you can fit two fingers between the noseband and the horse's nose. This prevents the collar from being too tight while ensuring it is not loose enough to catch on objects.

Care Instructions:

  1. Regularly brush off dried mud or debris to prevent it from becoming abrasive against the horse's skin.
  2. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water if the webbing becomes heavily soiled.
  3. Allow the collar to air dry completely away from direct heat sources, which can stiffen the material.
  4. Periodically check all buckles and the snap clip for signs of wear or rust to ensure continued safety.
