Nanouk Bitless Bridle (System 4) Cotton w/ Clip Reins Natural/Black C-FF. R. A. bitless system 4: bitless bridles are not new!

F.R.A. bitless system 4: bitless bridles are not new! For centuries a bitless bridle was taken for granted, before it was ever thought of putting something in the horse's mouth, people simply put something around it. A rope as a halter was sufficient at the time and that is how the first bitless bridle was created. In combination with the supporting weight, leg and feeling aids, the rider's hand maintains contact via the reins, not with the mouth, but with the head of the horse.
Operating principle: Pressure on the nose and cheeks, chin crossed reining. System: In this system the noseband ends in a ring on either side to which the cheek pieces and both crossed straps are attached. These crossed straps are lead through a ring at the end of a short length of leather which in itself is attached to the rings of the nose band. The result is that the whole crossed part hangs a little lower than with the jaw crossed bridles (system 5). To the outer ends of the crossed straps the reins are attached. Furthermore this bridle is simple in design because of the lack of a brow band, throat latch and buckle which we normally find on a nose band. At the left hand side we find a buckle attachment in the cheek piece, it is the only buckle which is needed to measure the bridle to size. Once the bridle fits you just simply put a bridle of this system on the horse’s head and you don’t have to readjust it anymore. For the F.R.A.® cotton bridles of system 4 counts the same, of course there are no buckle attachments or other leather like descriptions in that system line.
Position: As it is with most bit less bridles it is also applicable to the system 4 bridles that the nose band must lie on the hard part of the nose, approximately there where the nose bone begins. The special design of these bridles cause a good and steady positioning on the horse’s head without having to attach or adjust anything.
Influence: The chin crossed straps will cause, when you want to go to the left or to the right, that the horse will feel the pressure on the opposite side of the nose and cheek and subsequently it will follow the rider’s hand, turns as a result of the pressure. Simultaneous halts on both reins close the nose band and give possibilities to halt and changes of pace. The above mentioned left or right turn of both reins will always have a certain dose, because of the indirect reining, it is this dose that determines the discriminating influence. This results that a desired change will always have a smooth effect. It stands to reason that the reining aids are supported by the other supporting aids. The little connecting latch that connects the rein leading ring to the nose band and the cheek piece causes a low positioning and a free running of the crossed curb bands which is very good for the release. Extra attention with this type of bridles must always be given to the maintenance of the crossed curb bands, the right maintenance will give the leather its suppleness to continuously experience the right release. The bridle may not be used for lunging with the single lunge and neither for the Pessoa lunge. For lunging with double lines you take off the reins and use the rings to attach the long lines.
Suitability: The bridle is used in combination with light rein contact and is very suitable for sensitive horses. Therefore the bridle is particularly suitable for riding young horses and fiery sensitive horses, in that category the bridle may also be used as a driving bridle. Apart from the fact that the bridle can be used as a halter it gives total freedom for the mouth which can be an advantage during country rides.

Obsessed With This Ultra Soft, Fluffy, Cozy Blanket
Color: 02 Crystal Pink, Size: Twin (60" x 80"), Color: 02 Crystal Pink, Size: Twin (60" x 80")
I absolutely love this blanket. I ordered the crystal pink color in the 60x80 size to use as a throw blanket for my new cloud couch in my office, and honestly it ended up being exactly what I was hoping for. The material is incredibly soft, fluffy, and comfortable without feeling thin or cheaply made. I’ve actually been searching for another blanket similar to one I previously owned that eventually got a hole in it, and this one gave me that same cozy feeling immediately. It’s one of those blankets you instantly want to curl up in the second you touch it. One thing I really liked is that the bubble texture actually has dimension and volume to it. A lot of blankets advertised with this kind of design end up looking flat in person, but this one genuinely has that plush “bubble” effect and makes the blanket feel extra cozy and luxurious. The size is also great. It’s large enough to comfortably use on a couch while still being big enough for a twin bed if you wanted to use it that way. For me personally, it’s the perfect oversized throw blanket size. I honestly have nothing negative to say about it. The quality feels great, the stitching looks well done, the color is beautiful, and overall it feels thoughtfully made rather than cheaply mass produced. For around $25, I absolutely think it’s worth it. This has easily become one of my favorite cozy blankets in the house.

Mediocre and lacks required fabric content label
Color: 01 Off White, Size: Twin (60" x 80"), Color: 01 Off White, Size: Twin (60" x 80")
I am a "blanket person," meaning I love to be cozy, curled up on the couch, watching movies with my family, and using many different layers and types of blankets on my bed for different seasons. I was excited to order this 3D bubble fleece blanket by Lotus Karen because I have another 3D bubble fleece throw blanket that I absolutely love. The other one has a sherpa lining, which makes it a bit too warm for warmer seasons. This one by Lotus Karen is unlined, which I expected as the listing doesn't say it is lined. However, I'm feeling let down over the softness of the fleece compared to my other one. They all look similar in list photos, but they do not feel the same. After I unfurled this one onto my bed to let it fluff up, which it did after 90-minutes, but instead of the pile feeling plush and silky (like faux rabbit) this one feels more rough. It's not as high quality fleece, even though it looks the same in photos. Undeterred, I still really wanted to like this blanket and went to put it into the laundry, hoping it would bring out the best in it. However, I noticed that there is no fabric content label at all. Not just missing care instructions, but no label of any kind. Under the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Textile Products Identification Act, it is a violation of United States federal law to sell a textile product that fails to plainly disclose its constituent fiber percentages, country of origin, and registered manufacturer identity physically attached to the product. Having the information on the online listing does not meet this requirement. Because the material is somewhat mediocre, I would have given it three stars. But because it fails to meet basic consumer protection laws, it loses all.

VERY SOFT; MY DOG’S ALREADY APPROPRIATED IT
Color: 01 Off White, Size: Twin (60" x 80")
You know a blanket’s soft when my dog immediately tries to appropriate it. This is incredibly soft, and actually pretty light; it makes for a good spring or summer blanket, or a throw in addition to something else in colder weather. (The twin is big enough that you can double it up over yourself to make it thicker in colder months.) I’m not sure while it’s called a “bubble” blanket - there is a very gentle egg crate shape to it, but it’s not rigid at all, and not dual-layer or filled with air or anything. It’s a very comfy throw (my dog can also attest to that) and for ~$20 (at the time of this review), it’s a great deal. I haven’t noticed any shedding, either, but I’m going to wash it on as gentle a cycle I can, to be safe.

I WANT MORE!!
Size: 60" X 80", Color: Sage Green
I knew I'd probably like this blanket, but I wasn't ready to immediately fall in love with it! It's fluffy, it's soft, it's warm, it's comforting (like being hugged & held), it's dark (like blackout curtain dark), the color is vibrant (I got green), and it's machine washable & dryer safe with ZERO SHEDDING! I WANT MORE!!
