Welcome to the official homepage of
William Leistner GmbH & Co. KG.
The William Leistner company is a manufacturer of brushes for equine care.
For many decades, horse brushes have been produced with the best materials in a uniquely large variety.
Wood, bristles and straps are precisely matched in terms of color and appearance.
Thanks to our 140 years of experience and craftsmanship in the manufacture of brushes, we produce high quality and durable products.
Since 2020 we have been offering in our newly developed brush series »Premium Dog Brushes«.
The quality of a product can only be as good as the materials used.
All brushes in our production are made from the natural material wood. This wood is FSC-certified and comes from local forests that is sustainable be farmed.
The wooden backs of our brushes lie comfortably in the hand, even in very cool temperatures.
We offer different sizes so that there is a suitable horse brush or dog brush for everyone. With 15 different sizes and shapes, there is something for every hand size.
For high-quality brushes, we only use 100% horsehair from the horse's tail, 100% pig bristles or 100% boar bristles. The bristles are particularly long and dense. Natural hair and bristles do not have a smooth surface. The rough keratin layer binds dust and dirt and transports them out of the fur.
This guarantees the best cleaning effects with gentle, skin-friendly care and a massage effect, as well as
high toughness and long durability of our brushes.
We use 29 leather straps in different sizes and colors, 8 exclusive straps, 28 nylon and rubber straps in different sizes and colors.
Brushes with
100% horsehair,
100% pig bristles or
100% boar bristles
have a usage life of 10-20 years.
Many customers say they last a horse's life.
This is a very good price-performance ratio!
If 100% is specified when using natural bristles (horsehair, pig bristles or wild boar bristles), no synthetic materials are added.
The quality of a product can only be as good as the materials used.
That is why we only use the highest quality materials, which are subject to strict controls.
We don't make any compromises when it comes to optics either.
Wood, bristles, belt color, embossing and printing color (logo branding) result in a harmonious unit.
As already written: A large part of our brushes consists of
natural materials. All leather straps have been tanned in an environmentally friendly manner.
Our products rightly bear the "pure nature" seal
Natural hair and fibers are gentle on the skin and coat and prevent skin irritation because they do not have any sharp edges like artificial bristles. In addition, they are antistatic and do not charge.

customer testimonials
Dear Leistner brush team,
today we tried out the brush "Shiny" and were absolutely thrilled, a whole new cleaning feeling and the fur looked great afterwards! I hope our little horse enjoyed cleaning as much! ;-)
I've never bought a brush of this quality before because, to be honest, I couldn't imagine that it would make a difference.. well, I've learned better..!
