Custom Western Saddle Services
A well-designed saddle doesn’t just sit on the horse—it works with the horse. Our custom saddle services focus on creating a dynamic, adaptable fit that supports both partners in motion. Whether you’re addressing asymmetry, improving balance, or seeking a more responsive ride, we combine precision measurement, innovative materials, and expert adjustment to ensure every saddle enhances comfort, performance, and long-term soundness. This page outlines how we evaluate horse and rider, tailor each saddle, and refine its fit over time to keep you moving in harmony.
Fitting
Horses naturally have asymmetrical bodies, with one shoulder often more developed or carried ahead of the other. This imbalance can also extend to their back and loin muscles, making saddle fitting a complex yet critical aspect of equestrian performance. A properly fitted saddle addresses these asymmetries, allowing the rider to sit in perfect balance. This not only makes it easier for the horse to carry the rider but also promotes the development of proper muscle and overall comfort for both horse and rider.
With an adjustable DK custom gullet plate and a flexible tree, our saddles can be tailored to fit any horse, no matter their shape or size. Also giving the ability to be readjusted hundreds of times as the horse's shape changes, or as you change horses.
For the ultimate in comfort and performance, both our saddles incorporate the Flair air-panel system. This innovative system allows for precise adjustments to air pressure, accommodating the horse’s lateral asymmetry and ensuring a perfect fit. Our experienced saddle fitters evaluate the fit of the saddle while observing the rider at various gaits, fine-tuning the air panels to achieve unparalleled comfort and balance.
