Size Guides

MEASURING FOR HALTERS

To work out the correct size for your animal measure across the bridge of the nose where the halter will sit. This will give you the nose band width, which is the important part for selecting the correct size halter as this piece cannot be adjusted once made. You can also measure from where the nose band will sit around the poll (back of the head) behind the ears and back down to the other side of the nose band. This will give you the length of the head strap. The head strap is adjustable. We can custom make any components to fit but once you have the nose band length most of our standard size halters will fit your animal.
