Product Review: SmartPak’s Harwich Easy Change Browband Bridle

I’ve been a lifelong equestrian, but I’m a late-in-life convert to dressage. I can’t believe I’ve deprived myself of blingy browbands all this time.

Adding a bit of “bling” to your tack getup is so fun. And once you buy one sparkly browband, you can’t help but buy another, and then another, and…

Well, SmartPak in all its genius has found a way for us divas to show off our collection of browbands in a much simpler way. In SmartPak’s Harwich line of tack, the company has created a dressage bridle with an easy-change browband system. Instead of taking apart the headstall to put on a new browband, the Harwich Easy Change Browband Bridle comes with a browband that literally snaps in place.

The snap closure design makes it easy to take them on and off, even with the bridle still on the horse!

The Harwich Easy Change Browband Bridle is made with stainless steel hardware and comes with sparkling crystal detailing on the browband.

The black-leather bridle is made of vegetable-tanned leather and offers soft padding on the noseband and monocrown areas, providing extra comfort for your horse. It’s available with or without a flash. Super-grip reins are also included in the $169.95 price.

By the time I came across the easy-change bridle, I was already a SmartPak Harwich fan. The Harwich Figure-8 bridle is still a staple in my tack arsenal.

This easy-change browband bridle is a perfect gift for your equestrian friends who are maybe just starting to dabble in dressage, or like me, just starting to get their bling on.
