The shape, the material and the features of the CalmBlue tongue relief mouthpiece are all centered around creating acceptance, calmness and enhanced communication while minimising any unnecessary pressure.

The Calmblue mouthpiece shape encourages free movement of the tongue and redistributes pressure away from the center of the tongue that many bits with classic link designs create.

The cannons of the bit move independently to create a precision in communication between the rider and the horse.

The CalmBlue mouthpiece is made of sweet iron which releases a sweet taste as it gets in contact with saliva that many horses prefer.

The copper roller on the barrel allows the bit to glide up and down the tongue as reins are engaged more freely without creating additional pressure points.

Eggbutt cheekpieces are often preferred by young horses or those who require more stability in mouth than the loose ring offers.

A simple bit, it often is a good starting piece for a young horse who is beginning their training.

Mouthpiece thickness: 10mm

Please note that sweet iron bits oxidise naturally and the blue parts will over time develop a thin layer of rust and turn brown/grey. This is by design as the "rust" is what creates the taste so many horses love.

Calmblue Mouthpiece

The shape, the material and the features of the CalmBlue tongue relief mouthpiece are all centered around creating acceptance, calmness and enhanced communication while minimising any unnecessary pressure. The Calmblue mouthpiece shape encourages free movement of the tongue, minimises any pinching and redistributes pressure away from the center of the tongue that many bits with classic link designs create.

Eggbutt Cheekpiece

Eggbutt cheekpiece is a simple cheekpiece without leverage. It provides more stability than loose ring bits, which often makes it a great choice for young horses still learning, more sensitive and reactive horses and riders with less experienced hands.

Sweet Iron

Sweet iron is a blue iron alloy designed to oxidize over time, creating a sweet taste that encourages salivation. As it rusts, it develops a patina that enhances flavor, which many horses find appealing. While sweet iron promotes a moist mouth, it does wear over time and requires maintenance. To care for it, wipe the bit after use to prevent excessive rust buildup, store it in a dry place when not in use, and scrub gently with a cloth or mild abrasive if excessive rust forms.

Theo approved!

Theo seems to really really love this bit. I've given it a few months and the rust part has come through very nicely, he accepts it well, doesn't fuss with it, and willing moves forward and engages it!

We love it!

My horse is 27 years old and his previous owner showed him in a double corkscrew, which I felt was much too harsh. He used to root and pull every ride. With this calming bit he is soft and goes on the buckle in all three gaits. Wish I had know about this bit years ago!

Beautiful bit, not for my horse

I took the quiz, my horse is very sensitive to her bits so i wanted to try a simple bit, this one is great quality i love the look but my horse wont make any contact. She shys away from it and is constantly tossing her head and trying to get away from the pressure if any at all is added

She did great in a friends eggbutt snaffle but this simply wasent the next bit for her

This is a great bit! My sensitive thoroughbred goes beautifully in it. The thin bars work well with her mouth anatomy. Had the most relaxed and connected ride we’ve had since I got her 8 months ago. Love it!!
