Leather Halters

Location and function of a leather halter

The halter is an indispensable part of your equipment in equestrian sports: be it in the field, in the stable, during care or during transport – the halter and reins stop the horse and help to guide it effectively. The offer is varied: as well as the classic leather halters, Fundis also offers the trustworthy nylon halter as well as fur halters which distribute the pressure.

Pay attention to the correct fit of the leather halter so that your horse isn't uncomfortable. Ideally the strap should sit about four fingers wide above the nostrils. Also, the leather halter should be located on the hard part of the bridge of the nose. Using buckles, the models can be adjusted precisely around the nape of the neck and the nose. When properly arranged they allow you to optimally lead the horse without compromising the animal's wellbeing. The more precisely the leather horse halter fits, the better and more focused the animal reacts to your commands. The optimal interaction between rider and animal is always based on the best possible equipment. So don't leave anything to chance and always rely on quality.

One particular advantage of a leather halter is its durability. Despite its hardness and robustness, a high-quality model gives off a certain elegance thanks to the material. In order to maximise the service life of these products, leather halters should be regularly treated with the right leather-care products. Continuous care both improves the appearance and prevents the leather halter from becoming brittle.

Leather halters have many variations

Leather halters are available in different variations, colours and designs. There is a suitable model for every preference:

• Halters made of high-quality natural products, like leather, already look very chic in simple versions; they adorn every horse's head with full functionality.
• Adjustable leather halters in the colours brown and black are ideal for equestrian sports. The manufacturing harmonises perfectly with the natural coat colour of the animals, radiating naturalness and reliability. Their practical use is complemented by their seriousness.
• Beautiful leather halters with rhinestones are real eye-catchers; they convey grace and a noble style, visually enhancing both the animal and the owner. The contrast of a certain playfulness and serious leather makes a particular impression, skilfully setting the scene for the horse and rider team.
• A padded leather halter with fur ideally distributes the pressure caused by wearing it: because the nose and neck area as well as other sensitive regions are padded with soft fur, the halter with fur is more comfortable to wear. So this type effectively prevents chafing – and possibly resulting injuries. It is fundamentally suitable for sensitive animals.
• Models with anatomical shaping and a wide support in the neck fit perfectly on the horse's body. They're particularly comfortable to wear and are excellently oriented to the anatomy, size and physique of the horses.
• We also offer you halters made of artificial leather or artificial suede: imitation leather is 100% animal-friendly, shatterproof and water- and dirt-repellent. So it also withstands adverse conditions. In comparison, artificial leather halters are more flexible than genuine leather, they don't harden, preserve their colour over the long term and are easier to care for. So these products are quite easy to handle.
• Leather halters with nameplates, engravable emblems, golden clasps, decorative seams, brass buckles, chic fittings made of stainless steel, particularly soft leather or buffalo leather. More details can be found in the detailed product descriptions.
• In our online shop, we offer comfortable products made of high-quality leather by renowned brands such as A-Equipt, BR, Dyon, Equiline, Horseware, Kentucky Horsewear, Passier, Prestige Italia, PS of Sweden and Schockemöhle Sports
