Which Amerigo Vega is right for you?

Here we will discuss the Amerigo Vega Jump saddles so you can decide whether it would be the right saddle for you and your horse.
The Saddle Bank offer 5 day UK trials on all quality used saddles and we usually have a good range in. Therefore, you are in the right place if you are thinking of an Amerigo Vega Jump being your next saddle!

 

Who are Amerigo?

Amerigo saddles have a rich history that dates back to 1998 when Peter Menet, a Swiss master saddler, founded the brand. Menet's vision was to create saddles that would optimize the horse's freedom of movement while providing maximum comfort for the rider.

The panels of Amerigo saddles are designed with the horse's comfort in mind. They are made from high-density foam that provides excellent shock absorption and even weight distribution. The panels are also flocked with wool, allowing for further customization to ensure a perfect fit for each individual horse.

 

 

Why the Vega?

The Amerigo Vega is made on a polycarbonate tree, incorporating a tempered steel head iron. The polycarbonate tree allows flexibility whilst remaining supportive. Vega saddles have a lifetime tree guarantee.
