FAQs

Is this headcollar machine washable?

No, it is recommended to hand wash the headcollar to maintain the longevity of the padding and the strength of the nylon webbing.

Can I leave this on my horse in the field?

While durable, it is generally recommended to remove headcollars when horses are turned out unless they are specifically designed as breakaway field headcollars.

What should I do if the padding gets saturated with sweat?

Rinse the padding area with clean, cool water and allow it to air dry in a well-ventilated space to prevent odor build-up and material degradation.

Are the brass fittings rust-proof?

They are designed to be weather-resistant and robust, though it is good practice to keep them clean and dry after exposure to wet conditions.

Will the nylon stretch over time?

The double and triple weave construction is designed to minimize stretching, providing a stable fit throughout its service life.

Troubleshooting

Headcollar feels too loose after consistent use

Check the buckle closures for debris. Nylon can settle, so periodic adjustments to the crown piece may be necessary to ensure a snug fit.

Brass fittings appear tarnished or dull

Use a specialized metal polishing cloth to gently buff the fittings. Avoid harsh solvents that could drip onto the fabric padding.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces risk of rubbing and sores with integrated padding
  • High-tensile nylon construction offers excellent longevity
  • Brass-colored hardware provides a polished and professional look
  • Suitable for daily handling and stable activities
  • Lightweight yet sturdy design ensures horse comfort

Cons

  • Requires manual cleaning to preserve the quality of the padding
  • Not machine washable, limiting deep cleaning convenience
  • Brass fittings may require periodic polishing to maintain shine

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper fit, begin by adjusting the headpiece buckles equally on both sides to center the noseband. The noseband should sit comfortably across the bridge of the nose without restricting the horse's ability to chew.

For maintenance, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could damage the nylon weave or the comfort padding. The manufacturer recommends hand washing using a mild detergent and cool water. After cleaning, always air dry the headcollar in a shaded area away from direct heat sources, as extreme sunlight or heat can cause the nylon to become brittle over time.
