If you are in the market for a new English or dressage saddle, we encourage you to make sure you select a product that is fitted to your horse. As a custom saddle maker, we know the importance of proper fitting equipment. Many riders don't understand the difference equipment can make in the behavior and performance of their horse. What are some behaviors that can often be corrected with a handmade saddle? Things like sore backs, an irregular gait, pinning of the ears when approached with a saddle, and not tacking straight are just a few signs to look out for. You can greatly improve the performance and overall health of your horse by ensuring that saddles are the right size. Working with a custom saddle maker, like www.saddles.com, can help both you and your animal perform at your best.
How are our handmade saddles different from others that might cost less? We use only the best materials available, like genuine leather and laminate beechwood trees. We actually make our own trees. Each piece is handcrafted by artisans in the United Kingdom who have years of experience. The process does take longer, but the end results are well worth the wait. This is just one reason that some many professional riders including:
- Georgina Bloomberg
- Mary Engle
- Nadine Capellmann
- Robert Dover
- Ingrid Klimpke
They all ride in County saddles for the superior comfort, design and performance. But, you don't have to be a professional to reap the benefits of our saddles; they are built for riders of all abilities, from beginners to expert horsemen.
