Size Guideline for Guardian Masks

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ

 

Some horses have very wide eye sets and some horses have very large jaws.  If your horse falls outside of the "standard" sizing for bridles or halters, it is recommended that you please measure.

 

In addition, if you are UNSURE of the size needed, measurements can be taken and sent to Guardian where Sid or David will determine the proper fit, and we can help you with ordering.

 

  If a custom mask is needed there is an additional fee.  ALL CUSTOM ORDERS MUST BE PHONED DIRECT 512-756-0320


 

 

How to Measure your Horse for Guardian Mask Products   After measuring, email the measurements to guardianmaskrep@aol.com with your inquiry.

 

 

Measure from the very center of your horses right eye lens (pupil), across the forehead to the very center of the left eye lens (pupil).  It is recommended to use a cloth tape measure.

Measurements MUST be as close to exact as possible. Please be sure to read the 3 step process before emailing and before ordering as all sales are final.

 

 

  • A horse is measured in hands
  • One hand equals four inches
  • 40 divided by 4 equals 10
  • 40 inches equals 10 hh (hands high)
  • see Conversion Calculator: millimeters to meters:
    1 inch equals 25.4 millimeters or .02540 metres
    therefore 10hh equals 1.016 meters
  • Note: 42 inches equals 10 hands two inches
    Write as 10.2hh not metric 10.5
    10.5hh actually equals 11.1hh
