Liverpool Leather Trust

The leather bits are a remarkable sight in the TRUST equestrian collection. The core of the leather bit is made of reinforced nylon. The leather
that is stiched around this core, is naturally tanned without chemicals. The saliva production softens the leather bit and makes it more pleasant for the horse because it adjusts perfect to the anatomy of the horses mouth. The round contstruction and the flexibility of the leather mouthpiece are unique. The flexibility in combination with the taste of the leather, makes the bit particularly suitable for horses with a sensitive mouth. In addition, we notice that mares like the taste of the leather and therefore accept the bit well. Or horses that generally dislike bits in their mouth often accept leather and can learn to trust the hand of a gentle rider again.
Care Instructions: Apply olive oil to the leather bit regulary to keep it supple.
Attention: make sure that the stitching points to the outside, i.e. to the opening of the mouth.
Sidenote: Leather mouthpieces contrary to metal mouthpieces are significantly softer. This is what most horses love about these bits. But horses’ theeth are considerably harder than leather and can shorten the lifespan of a leather mouthpiece. If the bit is correctly placed in the dental free area, a damage done to the mouthpiece is quite unlikely, but caused by sharp edged-teeth not impossible. Such damages are not considered as a manufacturing defect.
