Van Jans Raised Comfort Headpiece

€37,50 €50,00

The Van Jans Raised Comfort Headpiece features a raised, cushioned crest across the poll, lifting pressure away from the sensitive area directly behind the ears. Decorative cut-out stitching on either side of the crest adds a refined finishing touch without adding bulk.

Key Features

  • Raised Padded Crest — Contoured cushion sits proud of the poll, reducing direct pressure where the bridle carries the most weight
  • Decorative Cut-Out Stitching — Detailed stitched cut-outs on either side of the crest add a tailored, fancy-stitched look
  • Full-Grain Leather — Durable leather that softens with wear while holding its shape
  • Standard Buckle Ends — Fits directly onto matching cheekpiece billets

Ideal For

Horses sensitive at the poll, or riders who want a more cushioned, comfort-focused crownpiece.

Care & Conditioning

Clean leather with a soft damp cloth after use. Apply a quality leather conditioner every 4–6 weeks, or more frequently in wet or cold conditions. Do not use household soaps, detergents, or oil-based products. Store away from direct heat and sunlight. A well-maintained Van Jans bridle will last many years of regular use.
