How do I determine the sizes of my bridle?
The easiest way is to measure the parts of your current bridle. These measurements can be compared with the Bridle2fit size charts below. For example: When your horse measures from bitring to bitring 100-103 cm, depending on where you want the buckles, can choose between a medium, full of x-full crownpiece. The main difference is the length of the straps, the middle part is not much bigger or wider.
