Heritage leather upholds the traditional European practices of natural oil and wax tannage.

The high oil and wax content of this performance leather ensures optimum suppleness and enhanced rider grip.

The distinctive tones of colour are particularly visable when the leather is bent as the colour lightens returning over time to its original colour as the oils migrate back through into the fibres

Precision custom fit

…EASY-CHANGE Fit Solution

Together the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System and the EASY-CHANGE Riser System offer a total fitting solution for your horse’s absolute comfort and your peace of mind.

All adjustments are measurable, symmetrical and completely reversible.

This should ensure total confidence in your ability to custom fit your saddle to your horse’s changing shape for optimal comfort and performance.

Protective cushioning

…CAIR Cushion System

The revolutionary CAIR Cushion System replaces the traditional fillings in your saddle panel with air.

There are two independently sealed air Cushions within each saddle panel.

The concept of air, as the ultimate in cushioning for your horse, is simple.

As a result with air being a fluid medium will constantly adapt to the horse’s working muscles.

This means that your weight will be distributed evenly across the entire length of the cushion, virtually eliminating pressure points.

This extraordinary comfort results in freer movement, better carriage, and a happier horse.

For such a simple concept the dramatic difference the CAIR Cushion System makes to your horse’s comfort and performance is profound.
