Official description
The LeMieux Anatomic headcollar is a beautifully crafted padded leather headcollar with an anatomically shaped headpiece and noseband to provide complete comfort to the horse. The solid metal fittings, padded leather throatlash and cheekpieces add a luxury style to this classic headcollar. It is available in black or brown in sizes cob or full.

First impressions
It looked well made and I particularly liked the shape and padding of the headpiece.
Overview of performance
This headcollar fitted well and was easily adjustable — the noseband was adjustable, too. I think this headcollar was the most comfortable and the leather wore really well, becoming increasingly soft with use. It stayed looking new, too.
Tamsin’s likes and dislikes
I really liked the padded headpiece and the anatomical fit around the ears.
Verdict
*H&H Approved* – I’d recommend this as a travelling headcollar as it looked really comfortable for long journeys.
