Nice fine lightweight very small saddle
Saddle is very child friendly, felt good for our little shetlander \ falabella pony. The pads under the saddle are not too hard and are attached with Velcro. Our son is almost 8, weighs not much and is 135 tall. It still fits in the saddle, but ... because of the raised edge at the back, I am afraid that he will soon sit on that edge with light riding. The back length of the pony does not allow for a larger saddle, so we switch to a flatter saddle without the back support at the back. Material of the saddle feels nice and chic looks nice. The stirrups and stirrup leathers are very thin and light, look and feel a bit cheaper, the girth was really too thin for my taste and seems less pleasant for the horse, I would provide a fur or replace it. For really small horses and for small children (our slim son of 5 years 122cm fits perfectly on it). I would definitely buy this saddle, and to be honest, if the children grow out of this saddle, they will probably have grown out of the horse too ;-). Value for your money!
- Fit and feeling for the horse
- Lightweight so that children can help saddle themselves
- Beautiful fine chic material
- Girth is a bit thin and sharp
