FAQs

Are reins included with the LeMieux Arika Flash Bridle?

No, the reins are sold separately.

Can I remove the flash noseband?

Yes, the flash noseband is designed to be removable based on your specific training needs or personal preference.

What material is the bridle made from?

The bridle is crafted from high-quality, soft, and supple oiled leather.

How do I ensure the best fit for my horse?

Adjust the anatomical headpiece to ensure no pressure is placed on the ears, and ensure the browband is not causing the headpiece to be pulled forward.

How often should I clean the bridle?

We recommend cleaning it with leather soap after every use to remove sweat and dirt, and applying conditioner weekly.

Is the leather pre-oiled?

The bridle is made from supple oiled leather, though regular maintenance with conditioner is still recommended to keep it in optimal condition.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff or dry

Apply a high-quality leather conditioner or oil to hydrate the material and restore its original suppleness.

Difficulty fastening roller buckles

Ensure the leather holes are free of debris and check that the buckle prong is properly aligned with the hole before forcing the closure.

Bridle doesn't seem to sit correctly on the horse's face

Verify that all cheek pieces are adjusted to the same length on both sides and re-check the fit of the anatomical headpiece to ensure it is not pulled too far forward.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before first use, ensure the bridle is wiped down and treated with a high-quality leather conditioner to preserve the finish. When fitting, start with the headpiece to ensure there is adequate clearance behind the ears. Adjust the browband to ensure it sits flat without pulling the headpiece forward, and set the noseband so it sits approximately two fingers below the cheekbone. To maintain the leather's integrity, clean the bridle with a mild leather soap after every use, especially after sweating, and apply a conditioner weekly to prevent the leather from drying out. Store the bridle in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to avoid cracking.
