EcoRider - Bridle and Saddle Accessories


£44.99

The foundation of absolute poll comfort. The EcoRider Perfect Fit EcoSoft Luxe Headpiece is a super-soft, anatomically engineered headpiece designed to protect the highly sensitive poll and ear areas from pinching, rubbing, and localized pressure.

Hand-crafted from our premium, vegetable-tanned EcoLeather and deeply treated with EcoRider's natural beeswax formula, this headpiece features generous, soft padding and an elegant ear cutaway. As the vital base component of our Perfect Fit Custom Separates range, it allows you to build a truly bespoke bridle tailored precisely to your horse's head measurements.

Key Performance Features:
  • Anatomical Ear Cutaway: Ergonomically shaped to curve cleanly around the base of your horse's ears, providing ample clearance and preventing the leather from pinching this highly active, sensitive area.
  • Poll Pressure Relief: The wide, contoured design distributes pressure more evenly across the poll than a traditional straight, flat headpiece, encouraging relaxation through the jaw and neck.
  • Generous Comfort Padding: Softly cushioned lining absorbs shock, cushions contact, and prevents hair loss or skin rubs under heavy training or show-ring use.
  • REACH-Compliant EcoLeather: Naturally vegetable-tanned using a gentle, multi-week process to ensure maximum durability, breathability, and immediate hand-suppleness.

Anatomical Configuration

The poll is one of the most sensitive areas on a horse's head, containing major nerve pathways (including the occipital nerves) and the attachment points of the neck muscles. Traditional flat headpieces concentrate pressure directly onto the atlanto-occipital joint. The EcoSoft Luxe Headpiece is anatomically curved and deeply cut back around the ears, clearing sensitive auricular cartilege and spreading weight over a broader, padded surface to prevent head-tossing and poll tension.


Material Integrity & Care

• Premium Vegetable-Tanned EcoLeather: Treated with our natural beeswax formula, creating a highly durable, hypoallergenic, and supple strap.
• Thick Cushion Padding: Specialized internal foam lining to damp vibrations and absorb poll pressure.
• Ergonomic Ear Cutaway: Curved edge profile to clear the base of the ears completely.
• Reinforced Strap Holes: Cleanly punched buckles lines for long-lasting, secure fittings to cheekpieces and throatlash.

Dynamic Fit Tip

Pro-Tip: When fitting the Shaped Headpiece, verify that the curved, padded section rests centered on the horse's crest. The browband should not pull the headpiece forward or compress the back of the ears.
