Specialists in halter fit and horsemanship

beware of imitations

The quality of our materials remain above anything else available in horse halters. Despite the emergence of numerous imitations in the market, the original HEC design continues to stand the test of time. We pioneered its construction, obtained both the patent and trademark - on the before then unheard term - Hybrid Halter® over 12 years ago and remain at the forefront of collaboration with top horsemen and women from various disciplines worldwide. Thousands of hours of ongoing development has gone into every detail of our halter designs. You will immediately recognize the quality difference when you hold our gear in your hands. When it comes to quality and innovation, HEC remains fully committed to the welfare and learning experiences of the horses we dress. Sadly, the copycats of our original design are out to make a quick buck by haphazardly combining materials to give the impression of a Hybrid Halter® with none of the horsemanship savvy and material knowledge or specificity essential to its function and safety. We have heard many horror stories now about horse injuries resulting from these counterfeits, which absolutely breaks our hearts. If you cannot afford our original and authentic version of this unique design, our honest recommendation is that your horse will be far safer in the rope or flat leather or nylon halter you have been using than one of the counterfeits. Going for the short term cost savings of a knock off could be the most expensive choice you ever make and our goal as a company is first and foremost to always protect a horse's welfare. You will find an installment payment option here on our site if you need to spread your purchase over time.
