Cheek Pieces

Horse Cheek Pieces

Cheek Pieces play a vital role in the composition of a bridle. Whether your horse has a traditional or bitless bridle, Cheek Pieces connect the headpiece with the bit or bitless alternative. Other purposes for Cheek Pieces include the prevention of friction from the bridle, which avoids causing discomfort for your horse, and they stop the bit from being pulled through your horse’s mouth, which can prevent serious injury and trauma.

The fact our horses are as unique as we are means that sometimes a bridle cannot cater to their specific size. That is why, here at Discount Equestrian, we stock the finest quality Cheek Pieces to optimise your horse’s comfort, as well as to maintain the security of their bridle.

Here are a couple of the bestselling products in our fantastic Cheek Pieces collection:

PS of Sweden® Cheek Pieces – “These incredible Cheek Pieces by PS of Sweden boast several innovative properties that are totally new in the world of cheek piece design! Selectable Cradles™ allow for improved adjustability, as they allow you to set these cheek pieces to the perfect length, whether they are hooked on or off. Boasting a stylish flat leather design with French hooks and silver buckles, these amazing Cheek Pieces have been crafted from exclusive English, vegetable-tanned leather! Vegetable-tanned leather isn’t only more environmentally friendly, it also tends to suit horses who have sensitive skin because the natural tanning process avoids contact with substances that have been reported to be potential irritants to equine skin. Sold as a pair. Available in black and brown.”

Schockemöhle® Cheek Pieces Select – “In true Schockemöhle style, these terrific Cheek Pieces Select benefit from a combination of elements from the Anatomic Line and the Select & Mix collection. While these cheek pieces are of a classical design with hook and stud fastening, they fit perfectly to any bridle in the Select & Mix collection. These highly sophisticated cheek pieces are available in a variety of proportions to suit horses who wear bridle sizes that are cob, full, or extra-full. Available in three timeless colours, including black, espresso brown, and royal oak/cream.”

It is vital that we, as riders, take proper care of our horse’s tack to ensure it remains safe and clean. We should inspect every piece of tack prior to every use, and check it after use, to make certain it fits our horse correctly and isn’t at risk of wear that could potentially impact its levels of safety. In order to fulfil all the requirements of tack care, it is important that we choose the right products. Therefore, our dedicated team work tirelessly to source only the finest quality products from market-leading equestrian brands for all the super subcategories in our amazing Horse Tack range, such as Leather Care, Training Equipment, and Bridles.
