Horseware Micklem Competition Bridle

For a sleek, professional look that doesn’t compromise on comfort, the Horseware Micklem® Competition Bridle is the go-to choice for riders competing at any level. Crafted from soft eco-tanned leather with stainless steel hardware, it’s designed for high performance with a precise anatomical fit that helps your horse stay relaxed, responsive, and focused both at home and in the show ring.

Engineered to avoid five key pressure points — including the poll and ears, molars and inside the mouth, infraorbital nerves and lower face, nasal bones, and tongue this bridle promotes better breathing, clearer communication, and a more relaxed horse. The contoured headpiece relieves poll pressure and allows full ear clearance, while the shaped noseband sits higher to protect the nasal bone and reduce facial nerve interference. Additional features like soft padding, highly adjustable bit straps, and optional Bit Lift Straps/Bit Clips ensure maximum comfort and flexibility across a wide range of horses and disciplines. Bonus — FEI-approved for use in competition!
