Not Worth the Price

“Not Worth the Price”

Written on: 03/11/2011

I bought this bridle two years ago along with a saddle and girth all made by Albion. The calfskin leather cracked clear through on my girth in two places. It also cracked completely on either side of the bridle's noseband padding near where the cheek straps attach. You can see the white padding underneath. The crown has alot of surface cracks that will probably go through also. I clean it after every ride with saddle soap and condition as needed with 100% pure neatsfoot oil. I've never had tack do this before.

I do like the fit, softness of leather and style. My horse seemed to like it too. We showed him in it for 2 years. However it just didn't stand up to being used 6 days a week. For the price I expected better wear.
