FAQs

What is the purpose of the flash strap?

The flash strap helps to prevent the horse from opening its mouth too wide, aiding in bit acceptance and encouraging a more consistent contact.

How often should I clean the noseband?

Clean the noseband after each use, or at least weekly, to remove sweat and dirt. More frequent cleaning may be required depending on the environment.

What is the best way to store the noseband?

Store the noseband in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.

How do I measure my horse for the correct size?

Use a soft measuring tape. Measure the circumference of the nose at the widest point and around the jaw where the flash strap will sit.

What kind of leather is used?

The noseband is made from supple and hardwearing, eco-friendly vegetable tanned leather.

Are replacement parts available?

Buckles are generally replaceable. Contact the manufacturer or retailer for assistance.

Can I use this noseband for all disciplines?

Yes, this noseband is suitable for a variety of disciplines, including dressage, jumping, and general riding, provided it is fitted correctly and the horse is comfortable.

Troubleshooting

Noseband is too tight, causing discomfort or restriction.

Loosen the flash strap and check the fit around the jaw and nose. Ensure the horse can breathe comfortably.

Leather is stiff or cracking.

Apply leather conditioner regularly to keep the leather soft and supple.

Buckles are difficult to fasten.

Clean and lubricate the buckles. Check for any damage that may be preventing them from closing properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  3. Buckles: Fasten the buckles securely, ensuring they are not too tight.
  4. Compatibility: This noseband can be used with various types of bits and bridles. Ensure the bridle is compatible with the noseband design.
