Gatsby Classic Nylon Breakaway Halter with Snap

Very large. Really wanted it. But totally won’t work

Sizing is way off in my opinion. This is halter was way too big for my horse.

Great back up to the leather one / leave it on Mae when she is roaming the fields

Fits my 16 hh TB well on the smallest hole so it runs a bit big but love the leather quality.

Great halter for the price. Nice quality. Do not like the snap that much. Thin metal, breaks fairly easily.

Sized quite large - I will return 2 oversize for Horse due to sizing.

Great halter

A+

decent quality, great colors, great price, fits according to size. I purchased cob for arab/qtr cross.

Love it

Sturdy halter with reinforced leather breakaway. I'd like to see a different snap used as this style is not as quick and easy as other clips; but it is a very good quality halter.

Good turnout halter at low price. chin strap breaks eventually

This product was out of stock so I didn't receive.

Great colors and quality!

Good halter for the price and a very nice leather break away crown. Don’t expect that crown to break with a cob sized horse. But if you prefer a leather crown with the rest nylon it is a good halter for the price.

Terrible quality. Throat snap broke almost immediately. HorseLoverz refunded the purchase.

Exactly what you would expect

Nice halter, great price

I got the red/white/blue one in cob size. The white looks kind of pink on mine, too. The leather seems very cheap and I suspect it will break easily, as intended. I have Gatsby brand all leather Halters with the 'pre-conditioned leather' that is advertised on this one, but the all leather ones feel completely different, this one is much stiffer and the finish is beginning to crack right out of the package. The nose band is as large as Gatsby's regular horse size halter, and can go a hole larger.

I"ve owned two of these halters, the mint green an the green. The mint green was great, the cob perfectly fit my hard to halter TB, and the leather was adequate, it was a pretty color. He stepped on his lead once when grazing, the leather came apart as it was supposed to, I had enough holes on either side to adjust and he continued to wear it. Unfortunately it got lost or taken somewhere in a shipping trip across a few state borders, so I bought the green when on sale. My horse wore it less than a week before he pulled back in some cross ties, and destroyed it. Unfortunately, it was not the leather that broke this time: it held overly well, and the metal on the sides of his face was what gave away. Neither of those things are safe at all. When I contacted this site I was told that since the halter "did its job and broke" and the halter was obviously not usable, and unfortunately past the 30 day purchase mark, I probably couldn't return it. Was very disappointed in this response to "Satisfaction Guarantee".

Pros: It fit my haflinger well, considering it is hard to find proper fitting halters and bridles. The leather was stiff at first, but just wiggling it around a bit softened it up. It didn't have that gross, cheap leather smell either.
Cons: The noseband could use another hole or two to make it not so loose. Also, the red bled into the white, so the hite was more of a pinkish color.
