Bitless

Bitless Headstalls - MRE has created a selection of bitless bridles focused on those that are kind to the horse.

As we have participated in distance riding sports and love trail riding in general, we have found it especially courteous to the horse to let them go bitless whenever possible. It makes eating and drinking on the trail easier as well as gentler to the mouth for long rides.

Evolution Bridle w/ Included Reins

Three bridles in one with reins included!

The Evolution Bridle is a unique, multi-purpose product, quite different from a standard bitless bridle and the many variations available on the market.

Use it bitless with the included special rein (as a cross under bitless bridle), as a sidepull, with a bit, or as a lightweight halter.

For those who spend a great deal of time on the trail, you know that as the environment changes, your horse’s response changes and you may need more or less input to his behavior.

If an Optional Beta Overlay Color is chosen, it will be included on the Browband, Noseband, and the 1/2" portion of the reins ends will be made in the selected color.
If an Optional BioThane or Reflective BioThane Overlay is chosen, it will only be used on the Browband and Noseband. It is too stiff and "sticky" to be used on the rein ends.

Any of the Optional Overlay Colors and Materials can be used as an overlay on the Reins, please select this as an alternative if you'd prefer to have more pop of color on your setup.

The Evo Bridle has an extra long rein included so that the cross under bitless feature can be used. The bridle can be ordered without this rein; however, please be aware this means the cross under feature becomes unavailable, which limits the bridle's function to a sidepull and a bitted bridle.

Please scroll down past product options to see additional functionalities and customization information for this bridle.

No Brow Sidepull

Moss Rock's No Brow Sidepull eliminates the browband and has been uniquely designed to angle strapping and hardware away from the eyes.
It is a lightweight headstall and is perfect for the horse who knows their job and rides out needing minimal instruction.

This Sidepull is made standard with a noseband in 3/4" width Beta material when either the 5/8" or 3/4" width material is selected. If the 1/2" width size is chosen, the noseband width will decrease to 5/8" material.

It is fully adjustable at the crown, noseband, and throat latch.

Snap On Browband
Padded Noseband
Padded Poll Strap

Sidepull

Have a horse who rides out nicely in a halter, but you'd prefer a more refined looking headstall?

Have a young horse you are just starting out, and needs to learn his/her turns?

Have a horse that is fussy with a bit but minds well?

Moss Rock's Sidepull works awesome for all of the above!

The sidepull uses a jowl strap designed to keep the headstall balanced over the horse's face so that there is no twisting. 

This headstall is made standard with 1/2" width material and a 5/8" width on the brow and noseband. It can be upgraded to a 5/8" or 3/4" width for a more substantial appearance.

It is fully adjustable at the cheek pieces, noseband, and jowl strap. The browband is removable.
$95.00

Hackamore Deluxe

Moss Rock's Hackamore Deluxe Bridle is a lightweight headstall and is perfect for the rider who prefers a bridle without the halter.

The headstall can be made in either 5/8" or 3/4" inch material to fit your choice of hackamore hardware. Both the of these material widths will fit either of the two S-Hack hardware options I carry.

The size difference in material width is aesthetics on the size of the horse. 5/8" is perfect if you'd prefer a slightly lighter weight (less material bulk, smaller hardware) and a little more refined looking. 3/4" is a great choice if you have a horse with a larger noggin or just like the looks of a more substantial headstall.

Bridle placement adjustments are quick and easy with roller buckles on the cheek pieces.

This bridle is made a solid color, the example picture shown has the Crown & Throatlatch in Black as an available option. If you'd prefer to have these pieces in an alternate color, please notate that in the Comments/Requests box below.

NOTE: This is sold as the Bridle only. Hackamore hardware and noseband setup sold separately.

S Hackamore

The S Hackmore allows your horse to eat and drink comfortably while trail riding. This three piece setup includes a Padded Noseband, S-Hack Hardware, and a Curb Strap.

Both the noseband and chin strap are adjustable, which allows for a more precise fit. The slot on the hardware allows a designated place for the cheek pieces, which prevents the material from sliding around when pressure is applied to the reins.

The waffle padding is the same material used on our padded breast collars, the highest quality on the equine market.

The Ultra Lightweight Aircraft Grade Aluminum Hackamore hardware is extremely lightweight and fabulous if you plan to do extended mileage (competitive trail, endurance), and is also beneficial if you have a smaller horse and don't want the hardware to overwhelm them.

Comes Standard with a Conway Buckle Noseband, can be upgraded to a Double Buckle Padded Noseband for an additional fee.
