Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I know if this headstall will fit my horse?

This Weaver Leather headstall is sized for average horses, typically 14.2 to 16 hands. Adjust the cheekpieces so the bit creates 1–2 wrinkles at the corner of your horse's mouth, and check that you can fit two fingers comfortably under the throatlatch. The design offers plenty of adjustment room to fine-tune the fit.

Q: Will the leather tie ends hold up as well as Chicago screws?

Absolutely — many riders prefer traditional water tie ends because they can't vibrate loose or strip out like screws can. They're secure, easy to swap bits with, and give you that classic look without the hardware-failure worries. This is the connection style trusted on working ranches for generations.

Q: How should I care for the turquoise carved leather?

Use a gentle leather cleaner and conditioner formulated for dyed leathers to keep the turquoise stain vibrant. Avoid harsh chemicals and don't oversaturate the carved areas — wipe gently and let it air dry. The dark oiled finish is forgiving and will develop a beautiful patina with regular conditioning.
