17.5 inch Albion SLK Black Wide
Saddle ID: C3291
Saddles are permitted on a 5 day UK mainland trial. Simply add the saddle to your basket and proceed to check out. The trial starts on the
day you receive the saddle.
Full payment is taken for the saddle at the point of check out. If the saddle fits – great! No further action required.
Is your fitter not coming until next week? No problem!
Select your delivery date at check out. Please note we recommend having the saddle delivered 2 working days before your saddle fitting
appointment in case of any unexpected delays with the courier.
Sadly we are not able to offer a trial internationally at present. However, most of our international clients still find it cheaper
to import a quality saddle from UK than to source one in their own country.

1 x Leather Soap (500ml)

How to Care for Your Albion Saddle
Clean Regularly
Use a damp (not wet) sponge or cloth to remove dirt and sweat. Apply Albion Luxury Leather Soap sparingly to lift grime while conditioning the leather.
Condition as Needed
Once the leather is clean and dry, apply a small amount of Albion Leather Balm using a soft cloth or sponge. This helps restore moisture and keep the leather supple.
Store Properly
Keep your saddle at room temperature, away from direct heat or damp conditions. Always store it on a saddle rack or stand to preserve its shape.
By incorporating these steps into your regular routine, you’ll ensure your Albion saddle stays in peak condition for years to come.
