Rolled bridle

A trainer called in to the showroom today and was very impressed with our rolled bridle- the 4000 range.
On closer inspection the lady was also very impressed with the price having looked at a Passier equivalent at £700.00. You can get a Weymouth in your choice of colour for £397.00. Quite a difference!
We didn't sell one, that is for another day, I'm certain this lady will come back. But after buying two bridles and one noseband the coffers were a little empty.
So if you want a fully fledged Stubben hand crafted rolled bridle in the colour of your choice as a snaffle or a a double Weymouth complete with reins then contact us now!

New saddle

I mentioned in one of my recent blogs that a rider had oiled her saddle, a brand new Stubben MFS Siegfried, and was very unhappy with the result. The saddle had been stained by the oil and the natural panel colour had been reduced to a dark brown.

I had given her some advice on how to try and rectify the situation, but the lady came back this week a bought a brand saddle of the same specification and size! When asked what had happened to the other saddle? ....... "I have sold it, I just couldn't live with the stains and the resultant instability of the ride. So it had to go!"

An expensive exercise for this rider, so once again please use Stubben soaps and Hammanol leather care to protect and enhance your Stubben leatherwork.....please!

Saddle cover

Stubben have upgraded their saddle covers to a new velour cotton mix design as shown here.

The covers are great for the saddles as they are a natural mix of cotton that allows the equipment to breathe.

So if your saddle is wet then this cover will allow it to dry naturally, which helps the leather to recover naturally and keep is shape and texture. Don't forget to use the Hammanol leather feed to enhance and feed the leather, this product is great for bridles too.

If you want to upgrade your cover then contact your local retailer or give us a ring or e-mail and we will help you. sales@stubbenuk.co.uk.

Reins to grip with

I've worked a long time in this industry but I've never seen such a variety of reins that are now available for the rider, particularly from Stubben.

It just used to be leather or rubber- take your pick madam. But now you can have rubber, rubber one sided, velour, laced, web, five plait the list seems endless. So when you buy your Stubben bridle ask the retailer for your own choice of rein, don't just accept what is offered. The best test is to 'feel' the rein in the hand, and then make your choice

By the way Stubben also do a special hook end rein, pictured here, that's very new and just available, you just have to ask. Any problems please give us a ring 01536744554 or contact sales@stubbenuk.co.uk

Rolled Bridle

It's very rare nowadays to be able to see, let alone purchase a rolled bridle made in the traditional manner.
Well Stubben now have one and its the 4000 range. It has a name as all Stubben bridles do its called the 'Carlow'. The bridle shown on the left is a Weymouth, but its available in snaffle too.
If you check out the roll in the top pic you will see that this is a seriously well crafted and stunning addition to any horse, available with rubber reins or plain,and in various colours.

It comes with the well designed stainless steel fittings, and the usual Stubben aniline dyed vegetable tanned leathers. With the correct cleaning care and leather feed (Hammanol) it will last for years, and perform and look great at all times!

Dressage

The champion Portuguese dressage rider Luis Principie has a favourite saddle the Stubben Geneses De-Lux. Not content with the large front block Luis has spent some time re-designing the shape of the block to give him more support when competing.After some work Stubben have increased the block size to accommodate his leg and as you can see from the picture he is very happy with the outcome.

So the Geneses now has a new block. The Principie!

This goes with the other three blocks you can select in this comfortable saddle range. Stubben saddles really are bespoke to the rider and horse's requirements!
