1 Inch Browband Headstall #HS26
$134.99
Description: The 1 Inch Browband Headstall is made of heavy 1 inch wide single ply harness leather. This is the widest leather I use in a headstall. The browband is doubled and stitched. The throatlatch is made of 3/4 inch single ply leather. All buckles are beveled stainless steel with leather loop keepers. The leather beneath the buckles is hand sewn together to prevent the buckles from slipping. This stitching below the buckles helps make this headstall so nice to adjust between horses, even in very cold weather.
The leather has been hand-edged, hand-rubbed, oiled with Neatsfoot Oil and hand-rubbed again before being shipped to you. I make it at the request of those horsemen who like to ride with a little wider headstall. This is a very sturdy, durable, but flexible, headstall that will last through years of hard cowboying.
Available with slot conchos or tie string bit ends.
Shown with tie strings.

Basket Stamped Two Buckle Slide Ear Headstall #HS42
$119.99Description: The Basket Stamped Two Buckle Slide Ear Headstall is made of 5/8 inch double and stitched skirting leather. It has a precisely designed slide ear piece that will fit comfortably on any age or size horse. There are two beveled stainless steel adjustment buckles with hand braided rawhide loop keepers. The extra hand stitching just below the buckles prevent them from slipping. Doubled and stitched leather is more durable and longer lasting than single ply leather. The doubled & stitched headstalls are not thicker than single ply so still have that good feel in your hands and on the horse.
Crafting: To make a doubled and stitched stamped headstall I take 2 pieces of skirting leather and split them to the correct thicknesses. Next I glue the 2 pieces and carefully cut the desired shapes. Finally it’s stitched together and completely hand stamped.
Available with your choice of slot concho, concho, or tie string bit ends (see dropdown).
