CWD bridlework combines refined French leathercraft with rider-focused ergonomics. Supple leather, clean stitching, and anatomically shaped crowns help distribute pressure so your aids stay quiet and precise in training and in the show ring.
Choose a plain or raised cavesson for steady contact; add a discreet flash for a bit more stability; or go with a figure-8 (grackle) to keep the nose more open and distribute pressure higher—popular with forward jumpers. Always start with the mildest setup that keeps responses reliable.
Cut-back crowns and soft padding are designed to ease pressure around the poll and ears. Balanced cheekpiece angles and tidy keepers help the bit sit quietly for clearer communication.
Some bridles ship without reins so you can select your preferred grip/width—rubber for all-weather hold, laced leather for a classic feel, or web/biothane for a lighter contact. Add matching martingale stops and cheekpieces for a cohesive look.
Begin with Pony/Cob/Full/Oversize, then adjust so cheeks are even and the browband doesn’t pinch. Aim for two fingers under the front of the cavesson, a comfortable throatlatch, and a bit that creates quiet, even wrinkles at the lips.
Premium leathers and corrosion-resistant hardware are built for everyday use. Wipe away sweat after each ride, clean with gentle saddle soap as needed, and condition lightly. Keep tack away from heat and direct sun.
Browse our CWD bridles, crowns, and nosebands—then pair them with your choice of reins for a polished, show-ready setup.
Do CWD bridles come with reins?
Sometimes. Many models are sold without reins so you can choose the grip and width you prefer—check the product page for details.
Which noseband should I choose?
Cavesson for steady contact, flash for a little extra stability, or figure-8 (grackle) for jumpers who go best with an open nose and higher pressure distribution. Start mild and adjust as needed.
How do I pick the right size?
Select Pony/Cob/Full/Oversize as a baseline, then ensure even cheekpieces, a non-pinching browband, and two fingers under the front of the cavesson. The bit should sit evenly at the corners of the mouth.
How should I care for CWD leather?
Wipe after rides, clean with gentle saddle soap, and condition sparingly. Avoid heavy oil and heat; check stitching and keepers regularly to maintain longevity.
