Product Review: "Better Than Leather" Turnout Halter by Two Horse Tack

Earlier this year I was contacted by Two Horse Tack to try out the Better Than Leather Turnout Halter and looked forward to the opportunity to review another one of their products. I had this review drafted months ago, but it is being posted rather delayed due to my daughter deciding to arrive several weeks earlier than we had anticipated. Before everything descended into chaos, I did manage to jot down my first impressions and get out to the barn to take some photos. 

The Better Than Leather turnout halter is made with 3/4" 580 Beta Biothane in brown with stainless steel hardware and the adjustable crownpiece and adjustable chin. According to the website, this was the "horse" size. Quest has more petite Arab-sized features so being able to adjust the size in more than one way using both the crown and chin pieces is a huge plus. 

I'm very familiar with biothane/beta biothane material as I pretty much exclusively only use synthetic tack when I ride or do anything with my horse. This is my first ever experience with the "Better Than Leather" material and I am impressed. I was quite surprised by how much it actually looks like real leather. The material is thinner and more pliable than regular beta biothane but feels just as sturdy and durable. It has a matte finish to it that gives it the appearance of traditional leather while still being easy to clean and maintain. 

As usual with all THT products, the halter is customizable and is made to order. The options are endless for individual needs and wants. This turnout halter comes in black or brown beta biothane and in 3 different material widths to compliment a variety of head sizes. 

If you're looking for the traditional look of leather but the ease of care and durability of beta biothane, the Better Than Leather Turnout Halter from Two Horse Tack would be a great choice. It will certainly be my go-to halter when I'm at the barn from now on.
