A particularly robust halter is essential wherever daily routines involve pulling, movement, and unpredictable situations. Horses with a lot of strength, a pronounced flight instinct, or young horses in training may put significant pressure on the halter in certain moments. In these situations, one thing matters above all: reliability. A robust halter withstands sudden strain, does not lose stability when exposed to moisture or dirt, and remains shape-retentive even with daily use on pasture, in the stable, or during loading. It provides safety in handling, protects against material failure, and ensures that the halter performs exactly when you need to be able to rely on it.
 

• Anatomical fit – unrestricted movement of the head and neck: The special line design of our halter follows the horse’s natural anatomy, ensuring a comfortable fit without putting pressure on sensitive areas. This specifically prevents pressure points and friction, allowing the halter to remain comfortable even during extended wear. Thanks to its ergonomic design, the horse enjoys full freedom of movement in the head and poll area – a noticeable advantage both in daily handling and during longer use.

• Extra padding – protects against pressure and chafing: Soft elements in sensitive areas such as the noseband and crownpiece increase wearing comfort and protect the horse’s skin and coat. This additional protective layer reduces pressure and prevents chafing, even during prolonged use or on sensitive skin. This way, the halter remains comfortable to wear even with frequent use, ensuring an all-round pleasant feeling.

• Sustainable and vegan – good for the horse, good for the environment: The Biothane material used is completely free from animal components, offering a genuine alternative to leather – without compromising on quality or durability. Its exceptional resilience ensures it retains its properties for years, meaning it needs to be replaced less often, conserving resources and reducing waste. In this way, Biothane combines high functionality with a responsible contribution to animal welfare and environmental protection.

• Soft Biothane – material that feels good: Biothane is a premium high-tech material developed for outdoor use to provide a durable, weather-resistant alternative to leather. It combines high tear resistance with an embossed, skin-friendly surface and remains flexible in any weather conditions. This combination makes Biothane a material that perfectly blends comfort, durability, and easy handling.

• Extremely durable and robust – maximum strength for any load: The strong polyester core of Biothane gives the material exceptionally high tear and tensile strength, allowing it to withstand even intense use. Neither frequent use, adverse weather conditions, nor heavy loads affect its stability. This resilience ensures the material remains reliably ready for use for years – a clear advantage for anyone who values long-lasting and secure equipment.

• Low-maintenance – clean in seconds: Unlike leather products, which require special and intensive care, or fabric products, which need to be machine-washed and then take a long time to dry, Biothane can be cleaned in just seconds. Since dirt does not penetrate the material, it is enough to simply rinse off dust or mud with water and wipe it dry with a cloth – and it’s ready to use again. This not only saves time and effort but also ensures the equipment always remains hygienically clean. In addition, there are no costs for special cleaning or care products, making Biothane particularly economical in the long run.

• Antibacterial – hygienic protection for a healthy horse: Thanks to its closed, waterproof surface, Biothane offers no breeding ground for bacteria, germs, or mold. Even when wet, the material remains hygienic, as neither moisture nor dirt can become trapped in the fibers. This reduces the risk of skin irritations and ensures hygienic use – even with daily use and under a wide range of weather conditions.

• UV-resistant – permanently vibrant colors: Biothane retains its color and material quality even under intense sunlight. Its special coating protects against fading, brittleness, or damage that can occur in many other materials due to UV exposure. As a result, the equipment remains visually appealing and reliably ready for use for years – no matter how often it is used outdoors.

• Rust-free stainless steel buckles – built strong for lasting safety: The high-quality stainless steel fastenings are corrosion-resistant and retain their stability and appearance even with continuous outdoor use. Rain, snow, or damp stable conditions cannot harm them, meaning they neither rust nor lose their functional reliability. This not only ensures the halter’s long lifespan but also guarantees dependable safety with every use.

• With Biothane lead rope – perfectly matched in color and material: The halter comes with a matching lead rope with a panic snap, perfectly coordinated in both color and material, offering the same robust and weather-resistant properties as the halter itself. This combination creates a harmonious overall look while guaranteeing that both components are perfectly matched – both visually and functionally.

• Water-repellent – resistant to moisture: Biothane does not absorb water, allowing it to remain lightweight and flexible even when wet. After use, simply wiping the surface with a cloth is enough, with no need for long drying times. This makes the material especially practical for everyday use and reliably protects it from weather-related damage.

• Dirt-repellent – beads off instead of sticking: Thanks to Biothane’s smooth, closed surface, dirt cannot penetrate or stick to the material. Dust, mud, or horsehair can be easily wiped off or rinsed away with water, leaving no residue behind. This way, the equipment stays clean and ready for use at all times, even with frequent outdoor use – without the need for labor-intensive cleaning.

• Individually adjustable – perfect fit for any size: Multiple adjustment options allow the halter to be precisely fitted to the horse’s head shape. This way, it sits neither too loose nor too tight, offering optimal comfort and secure hold in every setting. This flexibility ensures the halter is suitable for different horse sizes and types and can always be adjusted for a perfect fit.

Did you know… Biothane was originally developed as a high-tech material for military and marine use to replace leather under extreme conditions? It was created to produce equipment that, even in saltwater, frost, or constant sunlight, would not lose stability or flexibility – and it’s exactly these qualities that make it unbeatable for horse halters today.
