How to measure: Measure your horse at each of the five points below (A–E) and match to the closest size. The letters match the diagram in the product gallery.

Size Nose Width (A) Chin Length (B) Cheek Piece (C) Throatlash (D) Head Piece (E)
Small Pony 17 cm 15 cm 10 cm 16 cm 63 cm
Pony 18 cm 18 cm 10 cm 18 cm 71 cm

Fit advice: If your horse is between sizes on the Nose Width (A), size up — this stops the knots pressing into the sensitive cheek nerves.
