ANATOMICAL EXTRA WIDE PRESSURE RELIEF WITH CUT BACK EARS BLACK CROWNPIECE 4/8 CHEEKSTRAPS- BLACK

Maximum pressure relief — without bulk or restriction.

This anatomical extra wide crownpiece is designed to spread pressure evenly across the poll, while maintaining a clean, correct line to the bit.

Unlike many wide designs, it avoids interfering with sensitive areas — delivering comfort without compromise.

Why It Matters

The crownpiece is one of the most critical parts of the bridle.

Poor design can:

  • Concentrate pressure on the poll
  • Sit on the TMJ
  • Restrict ear movement

This crownpiece is built to eliminate those issues.

Key Benefits

Extra Wide Pressure Distribution
Reduces pressure points by spreading load across a larger surface area.

TMJ Clearance Design
Sits clear of the TMJ, avoiding one of the most sensitive areas of the horse’s head.

Straight Line to the Bit
Supports clearer, more consistent contact.

Cutaway Ear Design
Tapered shape allows full ear freedom without restriction.

Designed For

  • Horses sensitive over the poll
  • Horses reacting to standard crownpieces
  • Riders wanting improved comfort and connection
  • Everyday riding and competition

The Difference

Many extra wide crownpieces:

  • Still sit too close to the TMJ
  • Create unnecessary bulk behind the ears
  • Disrupt the line to the bit

This design:

  • Distributes pressure correctly
  • Maintains alignment
  • Prioritises comfort without excess bulk
