Halters & Leads FAQ
Which type of halter is right for my horse?
Leather halters are durable and classic. Breakaway halters release under pressure. Rope halters suit groundwork, and show halters are made for the ring. Our halter guide compares them and shows how to check the fit.
What is a breakaway halter?
A breakaway halter has a part that is made to release if your horse pulls hard. It is often used for turnout and tying.
What is the difference between a halter and a bridle?
A halter is for leading and tying. A bridle has a bit or bitless design and is used for riding.
What lead rope length do I need?
Many people use a lead rope around 8 to 10 feet for everyday handling. Pick what feels right for your horse.
