Saddle brands?

HorseRidinCutie4224 · 10-02-2005, 04:16 PM

I was hoping for some advice one what brands to get and not to get for english saddles. I am getting a new saddle for my birthday! I got one like two years ago, but it wasnt a good brand or anything. So for my 16th Bday, my mom is getting me a new one! I cant wait. But I wasnt sure if close contact or just an all purpose, or an equitation saddle....so any suggestions would be good! Also what saddles have you found comfortable and ones that fit your horse well? Thanks!

pessoas, Bates, Crosby, HDR, Kieffer, Collegiate, Wintec are all great brands. I dont like silver fox or any of those cheap little saddles.

Kincade
Crosby
Pessoa
All nice brands

I have a Crosby close contact and LOVE it...It is so comfy!! If I had the money I would SO buy a Pessoa...Those are NICE...but expensive. But you get what you pay for with those.

HENRI DE RIVEL is my favorite for serious show, but WIntecs are just as great.

(And for real leather look, I suggest the 500 in brown.)

Happy early birthday!
