I’m curious as to whether anyone here has seen/has any experience with Antarès’ less expensive Signature hunter bridle (or any of their Signature strapgoods, for that matter). How does it compare to other bridles in the same price range? I’ve heard a lot of great things here about the regular Antarès bridles that are about twice the price of these, but am not sure what these are like. Thanks!
I don’t personally own one but I have yet to ever lay hands on an Antares product that wasn’t of very soft , beautiful, high quality leather. Antares bridles have a very large following, for a reason.
I have one and I don’t love it- the dye is painted on and wont darken so weird color- also the throat latch comes out above the brow band which is odd. Wish I had not bought it. Nothing like the ‘real’ one - kinda ugly but i use it anyway
I bought one and returned it because I didn’t like the leather quality. It’s okay but not close to the quality of the regular Antares bridles.
It’s a decent made in India bridle. In my opinion the leather quality and finish didn’t match the price point.
I agree, I bought one of these bridles and was really not impressed with the leather quality or the finishing. I ended up never using it and just selling because I didn’t think it would hold up over time.
Hear it was meh. The actual Antares are worth the $$ though.
I agree 100%, Jealoushe. My other Antares bridles are the nicest bridles I’ve ever owned, and they have held up very well for years. I take good care of them but use them every day.
