Arena Hunter Bridle
The Arena Hunter Bridle is a classic everyday bridle in brown European leather, with white detail stitching that looks right alongside your Arena saddle.
The padded headpiece eases pressure on the poll, and the padded cavesson noseband and narrow browband give it a smart, traditional look, whether you are schooling at home or heading into the hunter ring.
Stainless-steel buckles on both sides of the cheekpieces, noseband and throatlatch give you plenty of adjustment to get the fit just right. It comes in Small Pony, Pony, Cob, Full and Extra Full.

Size guide
The diagram shows where each part of the bridle is measured. The full sizing chart has the measurements for every size.
Finding the right size
- Compare the measurements with the bridle your horse wears now.
- Each strap has several holes. If you would be on the smallest or largest hole, look at the next size.
Checking the fit
- Done up on the middle hole, the three buckles on each side of the headpiece line up with your horse's eye.
- The browband sits just under the ears.
- The cheekpieces give one wrinkle at the corner of the lip above the bit.
- Leave about two fingers between the cheekbone and the top of the noseband, and two fingers under the noseband on the bridge of the nose.
- Leave about four fingers between the throatlatch and the cheekbone.
- You can slide one finger comfortably between the flash and the lip.

Measurements are a guide only. They are rounded to the nearest 0.5 cm and then converted to inches, and the organic shape of saddlery means small differences between pieces are normal.
