About TRUST Equestrian
TRUST Equestrian crafts anatomically shaped bits and thoughtful accessories designed to support soft, reliable communication. Handmade in the Netherlands, the range combines careful engineering with premium materials so horse and rider can build confidence in day-to-day schooling and in the ring.
Why riders choose TRUST
TRUST focuses on comfort first: smooth transitions, even pressure and mouthpieces that sit correctly between tongue and palate. The result is clearer aids and better acceptance—ideal for green, sensitive or experienced horses that benefit from consistent feel.
Materials & mouthfeel at a glance
TRUST offers three material families to suit different preferences. Inno Sense uses an FDA-approved synthetic for a warm, friendly feel; Leather softens with saliva and moulds to the mouth; Sweet Iron develops a light surface oxidation that tastes sweet and encourages salivation for many horses.
Cheek styles & control
Choose a cheek to match your goals: loose ring for mobility and feel; eggbutt or D-ring for stability at the lips; full cheek for lateral guidance. Leverage options (e.g., Pelham, gag) are available for experienced hands and appropriate classes—use the mildest set-up that achieves steady responses.
Fit & sizing basics
Measure width straight across between the inside edges of the rings/cheeks, allowing a small clearance at the lips. Match thickness and mouthpiece shape to your horse’s mouth conformation, prioritising quiet, even contact over sheer thinness or bulk.
Care & longevity
Rinse after riding and periodically deep-clean joints and moving parts. Wipe synthetic or leather mouthpieces gently (avoid abrasives); allow leather to dry naturally. Sweet Iron will change colour with use—this is expected and can help acceptance for many horses.
