🐎 Why choose this product?

Bitless does not mean actionless. The Sopot's shanks multiply the effect of the hand: this is a bridle for experienced riders, not a mild option.

🧴 Care instructions

⚠️ The leverage effect applies pressure to the nasal bone and poll: keep your hands low and light, and never use this bridle with the reins held taut continuously. ⚠️ Adjust the noseband so that two fingers fit between it and the nasal bone, and the throatlash so that one flat hand fits beneath it. An overly tight bridle does not make a horse more stable: it prevents the horse from chewing and swallowing. Clean with glycerine soap after each use, then condition the leather once dry. ⚠️ Never dry leather near a radiator: it will harden and crack.

About TRUST Equestrian ...

TRUST Equestrian is a Dutch brand specializing in bits and leatherwork. Its bits are designed, developed, and manufactured in the Netherlands, where a team of technicians assembles them by hand. Production of Sweet Iron mouthpieces began more than fifteen years ago, followed by Leather and then Inno Sense mouthpieces. The range now includes three materials, twenty-two mouthpieces, and thirty-four types of shanks, totaling more than two thousand different bits. TRUST bits are anatomically shaped: slightly curved, they follow the shape of the horse’s mouth. The leather collection is made from European full-grain leather, and each model takes the anatomy of the modern horse into account.
