Leather is a natural product. Taking regular care of your leather products will make them last a long time.

Everyday occurrences such as ageing, sunlight, humidity, and general wear can take a toll on any leather product. Much like our skin, leather needs to be moisturised and cared for to prevent it from drying out or cracking. Proper care will prevent this from happening.

Before use, we always recommend that you oil your bridle. Use a soft, damp cloth (wring the cloth until it is merely damp). Allow your bridle to dry naturally. Using a good leather oil and conditioner helps maintain the product.

After each use, wipe away any dirt and grease with a damp sponge.

SUN 

Too much excessive sunlight can dry out leather, which will weaken it over time. To keep your bridle looking its best for longer and to prevent it from drying out, apply a good leather conditioner every couple of weeks and leave it to dry naturally, away from direct sunlight.

SCRATCHES 

Scratches are unavoidable on the daily basis of our sport. After all, constant training and hard work are the name of the game. To treat scratches, rub a bit of leather conditioner on a clean, dry cloth and leave it to dry naturally out of direct sunlight.

DAILY WEAR 

If you are using your bridle on a daily basis, you will need to clean and condition it twice a week to keep it at its best, and once a month we recommend fully dismantling the bridle to give it a thorough clean with a good leather soap and conditioner. Don't forget to clean the bits that's hard to see; those parts are also important.

To protect your bridle, store it in a bridle bag away from direct sunlight.

Be careful not to over-oil your leather products, as this will cause the leather to soften too much and become less resistant.

LEATHER REINS 

We advise against using oil to clean leather reins. Using a wet sponge and a small amount of leather soap is the most effective way to clean your reins.
