This size chart is a guideline. Measurements are supplied by PS of Sweden.
- ✓ Extra-wide headpiece designed to reduce pressure from the bridle
- ✓ Rounded cutout at the top spreads the pressure evenly across the whole surface
- ✓ Shaped to allow room for the horse's ears
- ✓ Elegant lacquered details on the sides
The area behind the horse's ears is particularly sensitive, with many nerves and ligaments, and the PS of Sweden Headpiece Medium with Patent Piping is an extra-wide headpiece designed to reduce pressure from the bridle and optimise pressure distribution.
A rounded cutout at the top spreads the pressure evenly across the whole surface, and the headpiece is shaped to allow room for the horse's ears, further enhancing comfort. It also has elegant lacquered details on the sides.
It can be combined with all nosebands from the PS of Sweden classic collection (High Jump, Jump Off, Paladin, GP, Passage, Paragon and Flying Change), with the exception of Nirak, King Edward and Hackamore. It also fits other nosebands with a strap width of 1.2 cm.
