The Exion Figure 8 English Jumping Bridle is engineered for performance, comfort, and style — a must-have for jumpers, eventers, and competitive riders. Known also as a Mexican bridle or Grakle bridle, this bridle features a beautifully constructed square-raised Figure 8 noseband, designed to enhance airflow and reduce pressure across sensitive facial areas during intense riding.
Crafted from elite-quality vegetable-tanned leather, it offers exceptional durability and a refined finish that stands out both in the schooling ring and under show lights. The 50mm wide anatomical mono crownpiece is softly padded and cut back around the ears to provide comfort, reduce poll pressure, and allow for natural ear movement.
One of the key performance features is the ergonomically padded jaw guard that prevents pinching and enhances stability, while the soft-lined browband and noseband add to the horse’s comfort. The distinctive cross-over figure 8 noseband keeps the bit stable, discourages crossing of the jaw, and ensures maximum control — making it perfect for high-energy jumping or cross-country sessions.
Finished with lacquered brass buckles for a traditional, polished look and resistance to rust. Comes complete with rubber grip reins that offer superior control and include martingale stoppers for added security and functionality.
