Immediate, out-of-the-box softness with high-performance control. The EcoRider SuperLux Grackle Bridle Figure-of-Eight is engineered specifically for showjumpers, eventers, and active horses that require precise bit stability without the rigid stiffness of traditional leatherwork.
Crafted from select, pre-conditioned softy leather cuts, this bridle is the softest grackle model in the EcoRider range. It is designed to adapt instantly to your horse's face, preventing skin rubs. It features a genuine, pressure-diffusing sheepskin nasal crossover pad and an ergonomic headpiece, ensuring total comfort during intense work at an exceptional value.
Key Performance Features:
- Ergonomic, Soft Anatomic Headpiece: Anatomically shaped to mould gently over the poll, distributing pressure evenly and avoiding the sensitive nerve endings behind the ears.
- Supple Grackle Noseband with Sheepskin Pad: High-quality, natural sheepskin pad at the crossover point of the grackle noseband prevents nose rubs, cushions contact, and disperses nasal pressure.
- Refined 1/2" Cheekpieces: Slim, low-profile cheek straps allow for precise, balanced bit positioning and a clean show-ring aesthetic.
- Luxurious Raised & Padded Browband: Finished with a beautifully soft, raised, and padded browband that clears the temples and sits comfortably flat.
- REACH-Compliant EcoLeather: Naturally vegetable-tanned to ensure maximum durability, high breathability, and an exceptionally soft finish that is kind to sensitive skin.

Anatomical Configuration
Standard grackle (figure-of-eight) bridles often exert high, localized pressure directly on the sensitive facial nerves and the nasal bone. The SuperLux Grackle Bridle uses pre-conditioned, highly pliable leather cuts that instantly conform to the horse's facial bones without pinching. The central grackle disc is cushioned with natural sheepskin to protect the sensitive nasal bone and clear the airways, while the high cheek buckles are placed to prevent pressure on the teeth.
Material Integrity & Care
Dynamic Fit Tip
💡 Pro-Tip: Position the central sheepskin pad comfortably flat on the hard, upper nasal bone, high enough that the lower noseband straps sit well clear of the soft nasal cartilage and nostrils to allow for unrestricted breathing.
