Stubben Freedom English Bridle

Sustain your horse’s natural joy in moving! This bridle respects your horse’s anatomy and biomechanics, granting freedom for your horse’s 16 ear muscles to properly function without nerve pressure, as well as a full sight field to your horse, being fully preserved by Stübben’s innovative cheek piece design.

• A horse’s ears are crucial for the horse’s communication with the rider. As neither the headstall nor the brow band cross any of the horse’s 16 ear muscles (4 front muscles, 4 rear muscles for each ear), no pressure can possibly be exerted on any nerves and veins, preserving full freedom of movement of the ears.
• No pressure on neuralgic areas of the horse’s head (main facial nerve, muscles of the ears, neck and throat).
• Allows a full sight field to your horse. Often constrained by the cheek pieces of ordinary bridles, Stübben’s innovative cheek piece design prevents impeding vision.
• The special position of the headstall and the throat strap keep the horse’s sensitive areas in the neck and the throat free from pressure.
• Often overlooked, the design of the Freedom bridle can prevent triggering a horse’s flight instinct with tack interfering with their field of sight.
• This is the first bridle that was developed considering all anatomical characteristics of the horse’s head. Consequently, the stress often caused by conventional bridles, will not occur with this bridle. Your horse will feel at ease.
• Not legal for dressage competition
