Draft horses require much larger bridles than standard horses. Draft Horse Bridles are available in various materials such as leather, nylon, beta, biothane, etc. Leather is the most widely available but the beta and biothane are by far the most durable and the easiest to care for.
The most common measurements used to check for fit on a draft horse bridle are: bit to bit over the poll ( top of head behind the ears )
noseband, and browband. With these measurements you can easily determine if the bridle will fit. It is common to find companies that sell oversize bridles and call them draft horse size. These bridles are typically designed for warmbloods which have smaller heads than the larger draft horses. It is important to make sure that the bridle is truly designed fo draft horses and not just a slightly larger version of a standard horse bridle.
