FAQs
Is this headcollar machine washable?
While hand washing is recommended to preserve the integrity of the hardware and fleece, it can be machine washed in a laundry bag on a gentle cycle at a low temperature.
What is the length of the included leadrope?
The leadrope is 1.8 meters long, which is standard for safe leading and handling.
Can I use this headcollar for turnout?
This headcollar is intended for handling and yard use. It is recommended to use a breakaway-style headcollar if you are leaving a horse unattended in a pasture.
Is the material waterproof?
The nylon webbing is durable and water-resistant, but it is not completely waterproof and should be dried if it becomes saturated.
How do I ensure the best fit for my horse?
Utilize the double pin buckle headpiece for initial adjustment and the curb strap to fine-tune the noseband placement.
Troubleshooting
Headcollar feels too loose or tight
Adjust the buckles at the poll or the curb strap until you can fit two fingers comfortably between the headcollar and the horse's skin.
Trigger clip is sticking
Rinse the clip under clean water to remove dirt or debris and apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant if necessary.
Fleece lining looks matted
Once dry, gently brush the fleece with a soft-bristled brush to restore its loft and remove any trapped straw or dust.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Durable nylon construction for longevity

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the perfect fit, ensure the noseband sits two fingers below the cheekbone. Use the adjustment points on the headpiece and curb to balance the headcollar, ensuring it is not too tight against the jaw. For maintenance, hand wash the headcollar in warm water with mild detergent, taking special care to rinse the fleece lining thoroughly to remove any grit. Allow the nylon to air dry away from direct heat sources, which can cause the material to become brittle. Regularly inspect the hardware and trigger clips to ensure they function smoothly and are free of dirt.
