I got this saddle in December and was rather skeptical about how good the quality would be. I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised when I pulled it out of the box. It is a wonderful saddle for the price and my TWH mare gaits very nicely in it. As for comfort, you can't beat it. The only thing I would recommend is purchasing fleece covers for the "leathers." Overall this is a fantastic saddle for both horse and rider. I highly recommend it.

This saddle is shorter, for short, fat backed Haflingers! I got the wide and it fit great!
I prefer this saddle to the HEAVY leather Aussie I have! Plus, you stick like glue in the suede seat- nice and deep and secure! I have NEVER been thrown using these saddles over the past 5 years! Before that, I would get tossed occasionally, using a synthetic western. Too loosey goosey. Not this saddle!
I switch out the english style girth for a western w/ convertors. Also, I added endurance stirrups for my old ,weak knees.
For the price, it can not be matched! I even sell my older ones for about the same price I buy them for, so I can get a new one! They do hold up well, tho;)

Got this saddle to be an everyday rider and it looks like it will fit the bill. Not to many frills but well made and looks good. Sugie likes the fit. Comes with a jam up girth. I did replace the stirrups with some aluminum ones because I wanted wider ones, but they are fine. I liked the large poleys which seemed too big at first but helps out alot if you like to ride hard. It's not a cadilac, but a jeep. Well pleased and will buy another leather fancy one later for Sunday riding.

I love the light weight and fantastic comfort of this saddle. All my tack is synthetic and I have never been disappointed. No worries about getting wet, nice look, great overall saddle. My horse also is happy with this saddle. I have used the heavy all leather ausie before and this is hands down better for me!!!
Would have liked english style irons. A+ saddle

These are much better in person than photos show.The material is very hardcore, seat is padded, nylon straps all very nice. Flaps are short like an all purpose, is mono-flapped. Very nice saddle- can't wait to get a stock model too now!
