Heritage Leather upholds traditional practices in natural oil and wax tannage, highlighting a desirable rich patina, characteristic of only the finest natural leathers.

The high oil and wax content of this performance leather enhances rider grip with optimal suppleness and a fully natural surface.

The distinctive tones of colour visible when bending the leather are highly desired as a characteristic of natural heritage leather, where the depth of colour is dependent on the infused oil content within the fibres.

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. 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.
