I've had this bridle for almost 3 years now and it has held up wonderfully, and it did darken very nicely over time. The stitching has recently begun to fall apart a bit, but that's understandable as it is older now and has had alot of use. But I'd definitely recommend this bridle.

I think this bridle came with a saddle I bought in 2006, and it is sadly disappointing. I have one of Dover's Crown bridles, and that bridle is so soft. However, for the life of me, I cannot get this bridle to darken, it does not take oil well, and feels almost like plastic. If you bend the bridle, the top layer of the bridle seems to wrinkle oddly. Personally, I wouldn't buy this bridle, and if I had bought it, I would have returned it by now.
For a properly fitted bridle, a caveson noseband should sit just below the horse's cheekbones - generally no more than the width of 2 fingers from the bottom of the cheekbone to the top of the noseband (this does not apply to drop or figure 8 nosebands). Figure 8 nosebands should sit above the bottom of the cheek bone only if they have a ring that allows movement connecting the noseband to the cheek piece. The browband should never be gaping or flopping. Click Here for more information and examples.

Properly adjusted cheek pieces will cause the bit to create two gentle wrinkles at the corner of the mouth on each side. Cheek piece buckles should generally be at the level of a horse's eye, and on a bridle that fits a horse's head very well, all buckles will generally be at the same level as each other. These cheek piece guidelines are just a suggestion, as finding a perfect fit on all horses is near impossible. Multiple holes are given on cheek pieces to allow for vast adjustment. Keep in mind that the proper position of the bit is a priority over buckle placement. Click Here for more information and examples.

Some horses can be difficult to fit in a stock size bridle. For this reason, additional bridle pieces can be bought in a variety of sizes and it is never a problem to mix and match sizes of individual pieces to get the proper fit.
