TRÄNS | REMONT | BRUN Nr. 09
Ett vackert rundsytt dressyrträns med remontnosgrimma av absolut högsta kvalitet, både när det gäller läder och hantverk. Nosgrimman har vår unika "knäckta" form och en mjuk kudde på insidan vid nosryggen, vilket säkerställer att tränset ligger helt stilla. Nosgrimman är vadderad hela vägen för extra komfort.
Nackstycket skyddar hästens viktiga käkled (TMJ) och ligger nära hästen med mjuk vaddering längs öronbasen. Justering av höjden på nosgrimman och sidostyckena sker i nacken, där fasta knoppar förhindrar att spännena glider åt sidan.
Tränset finns i storlekarna cob, full och x-full, och du kan skräddarsy storleken på varje del efter din hästs specifika behov. En diskret svart OCTA-pin pryder pannbandets vänstra sida samt nosgrimman centrerad längst fram. Du kan själv välja vilket pannband du vill ha till detta träns.
Are you unsure about what size to order? Check out our SIZE GUIDE
The bridles are true to size, so if your horse usually wears a full, it’s likely the same size will work for this bridle as well. It’s most common to have the same size for all parts.
If you know that your horse typically needs a bigger or smaller part, you can order the bridle according to what you think is best.
You always have the option to exchange the size of one or more parts after trying the bridle at home in the stable, and we offer free exchanges, so you don’t have to bear the return cost.
However, we do ask that you notify us in advance if you plan to exchange a part, so we can reserve it for you. If you’re unsure, it’s always a good idea to take pictures or a video and send them to us so we can help guide you to the best solution. We won’t rest until everything fits perfectly, so we really encourage you to both film/take photos and brainstorm ideas with us.

THE OCTA CONCEPT
THE BRIDLE THAT WILL CHANGE THE INDUSTRY
Bridle No.09 is a round-stitched dressage bridle with a drop noseband. Like all our bridles, it is part of our OCTA CONCEPT. The name OCTA comes from "octagon," which means eight-sided. If we look at the horse's head in cross-section at the cheek, we can see that the horse's head has an octagonal shape, with the nose bridge forming the top.
Our OCTA CONCEPT is built on the idea of creating the world’s best bridle, and for us, this involves several key factors:
THE BRIDLE MUST REMAIN COMPLETELY STILL
One of the most important conditions for peak performance is that the bridle or double bridle stays perfectly still on the horse’s head. While this may seem like a simple task, in practice, it is something rarely achieved with many bridles.
THE BUCKLES ARE CRUCIAL
The buckles on the headpiece are fixed, meaning you adjust the height of the noseband and bit by moving between the holes in the straps. The knob that fastens the strap is non-movable, which helps distribute pressure and ensures the straps never sit crookedly.
DROP NOSEBAND
HELPS TO STABILIZE THE BIT
A drop noseband is often used on young horses to help them stabilize the bit. It also helps prevent the horse from opening its mouth to avoid contact with the bit. A drop noseband should never be fastened too tightly, as the purpose is not to close the mouth but primarily to help young horses by stabilizing the bit.
We have added a cushion on the inside at the front and given the entire noseband a soft 'bend,' so it naturally fits and stays securely in place. The noseband is padded throughout and curves around the cheekbones without causing chafing, positioned far enough back to avoid being too close to the eyes.
The strap fastened below the bit is convex, allowing it to sit gently around the bit without pushing it upwards into the mouth.
A discreet black OCTA symbol is placed at the center of the noseband.

AS A HEADPIECE SHOULD BE
The headpiece of this bridle, like all our others, is softly padded along the ear. It features a small "tunnel" where the mane can comfortably fit, but most importantly, the headpiece includes a perfectly positioned cushion to protect the TMJ (temporomandibular joint), which, simply put, is the joint where the lower jaw attaches to the skull. It is considered the most sensitive joint in the horse’s body and can be compared to our temples.
COMMON PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH TMJ PAIN
- Head shaking
- Sensitive ears, head-shyness, reluctance to be bridled
- Tendency to place the tongue over the bit
- Tension in the neck
- Prefers to carry the head slightly tilted
The browband is easy to change but has a fixed position, so it cannot move up or down.
THE HISTORY OF...
BRIDLE No. 09
This bridle was designed by Karin over 7 years ago and has become one of the best-selling bridles in the world. Back then, it was called PIONEER and is one of the bridle models Karin chose to bring into THE EQUEMIST.
Now, this popular drop noseband bridle has been upgraded and improved and is part of our OCTA CONCEPT, available as both a jumping and dressage bridle. In other words, the bridle also comes in a jumping variant, but with flat details.
