Notes

Age Recommendation: Designed exclusively for youth equestrians, recommended for children ages 2 to 12.
Handcrafted Genuine Leather: Because leather is a natural material, slight variations in tone and natural hide markings may occur. These are standard characteristics of authentic leather and do not affect the saddle's structural integrity, weight, or performance.

FAQ

Before you buy

What size saddle should I choose? ›

The right saddle size depends on the rider. Most adult riders are comfortable in 15", 16", or 17" seats, while youth riders typically use 12" or 14" models.
