Prince International Saddlery
Padded Silver Lined Heavy Crank Snaffle Bridle
English Bridles
Manufacturer: Prince International Saddlery
Model: Padded Silver Lined Heavy Crank Snaffle Bridle
Category: English Bridles
Purchase: I payed $38.50 online at Green River Tack.
Likes: Elegant appearance.
Dislikes: When the bridle arrived, it looked picture perfect. But on closer inspection, I found many flaws. The dye was blotchy with navy and havana tones in it, plus the dye stripped just using Lexol, which has never harmed any of my leather! It was also made in India, which the seller left out of the description. The leather was extremely stiff and chaffed my hands just trying to get the bit on it! The silver on it looks like it was painted on. The buckles are plated looking, and overall of poor quality.
Quality: The construction was fair, and the quality was poor. It was mass manufactured by people who know nothing about quality saddlery. The leather is most likely water buffalo, one of the cheapest leathers on the market. The stitching was extremely uneven.
Summary: I would not buy this bridle unless you are willing to re-dye it, soak it in oil(which might not even help), and spent costly minutes bandaging your hands from the blisters on them. Overall, I was extremely disapointed.
