Hand-Painted Artistry That Works as Hard as You Do The Weaver Leather Coco Feather Sliding Ear Headstall delivers custom-look details without the price tag or maintenance hassle of hand-tooled silver. Hand-painted carved feather accents on premium chestnut cowhide give you that standout style riders notice at the rail — while stainless steel hardware and supple leather construction handle daily ranch work, trail miles, and arena sessions without complaint. The sliding ear design adjusts along the crown for a clean, minimalist fit that works across most stock-type horses. Whether you're tuning barrels, checking fence, or hitting the mountain trails, this headstall stays comfortable on your horse and looks sharp doing it. Part of Weaver's Turquoise Cross collection, so it coordinates beautifully if you're building a matched set. Why Riders Choose the Coco Feather Headstall Hand-painted feather details that won't fade — Carved and painted by hand, each headstall has unique character and pairs perfectly with boho-western tack collections. Sliding ear fit for easy adjustability — 5/8" width with crown adjustment means you dial in the right fit for most Quarter Horses, Paints, and similar breeds without fighting buckles. Stainless steel hardware resists rust — Non-rust buckles and conchos hold up in humid climates, wet rides, and years of outdoor use without corroding. Premium chestnut cowhide built for longevity — Supple enough to use straight out of the box, tough enough for daily work — this leather breaks in beautifully and lasts. Low-maintenance custom style — Get the artisan aesthetic of show tack without constant polishing or conditioning — wipe down the painted areas, condition the leather, and you're good to go. Coordinates with Turquoise Cross collection — Match it with other Weaver Turquoise Cross pieces for a cohesive, pulled-together look in the arena or on the trail. Best For Trail riders, barrel racers, and ranch riders looking for a durable headstall with hand-painted artistry that stands out without the upkeep of silverwork. Frequently Asked Questions Q: What size horse does this headstall fit? The Weaver Leather Coco Feather Sliding Ear Headstall is sized for average stock-type horses — think Quarter Horses, Paints, Appaloosas, and similar builds. The sliding ear design and adjustable crown give you flexibility to fine-tune the fit across the poll and down the cheek, so it works comfortably on most horses in that range. Q: Will the hand-painted details hold up to regular use? Yes. Weaver applies the hand-painted feather design over carved leather and seals it properly, so it holds up to normal wear, sweat, and weather. For longevity, wipe down the painted areas with a damp cloth after muddy or sweaty rides, and avoid soaking the headstall or using harsh chemicals directly on the artwork. Q: Is the hardware rust-resistant? Absolutely. This headstall uses stainless steel buckles and conchos, which resist rust even in humid climates or wet conditions. It's a solid choice for riders who don't garage-keep their tack or who ride year-round in variable weather. Q: Does this headstall work with most bits? Yes. The Weaver Leather Coco Feather Headstall has standard bit loops that accept most western bits — snaffle, curb, correction, or transitional styles. If you ride with a specific bit setup, just confirm your bit's cheek or shank style works with sliding ear headstalls (most do). Show more
