Highly recommend The Saddle Bank!

I bought a s/h AH GP saddle for my cob. It wasn't quite the right fit but fitted my other horse perfectly! I emailed Emie my s/h Black Country saddle and had a quick response with a very competitive outright price which I accepted. Fortunately I had the box which the AH saddle came in, boxed it up and courier emailed with time one hour slot for collection. Money was in my bank account within a couple of days of them receiving my old saddle. Highly recommend The Saddle Bank, excellent communication and description of saddles. Thanks Saddle Bank Team!

Great service

Recently sold my saddle to the saddle bank for the first time. Very friendly, helpful staff. Slight issue on the couriers behalf but the saddle bank were very efficient in solving this. Money transferred quickly after passing inspections. Would recommend and use again in the future.

Easy, fast and good value for money!

What’s not to love?! I’ve sold a few saddle through the saddle bank and every single time has been easy, straight forward and stress free the online form is very simple to use and I’ve always found they offer very good prices! Obviously you may be able to fetch slightly more selling privately but selling to the saddle bank takes away the stress and the hassle of scammers and time wasters. I will continue to use the saddle bank for my saddle selling needs. 10/10!

So easy

I always sell my saddles through The Saddle Bank. It’s such an easy and straightforward process. No advertising on Facebook/ebay or dealing with time wasters and scammers. Thanks again Saddle Bank for a nice and simple transaction. :)

How the trial works

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.

Clean and Care Guidelines
To maintain the exceptional quality of your Equipe saddle, the Equipe Complete Care Kit offers a comprehensive solution tailored for the brand's fine Italian leather.

Daily Maintenance: Use the Soft Care Spray for routine cleaning and conditioning. This gentle formula effectively removes dirt and sweat, keeping the leather supple and moisturized.

Deep Cleaning: Periodically, apply the Soft Clean to thoroughly cleanse the leather, eliminating embedded grime without stripping natural oils.

Conditioning: After cleaning, nourish the leather with Soft Oil, which penetrates deeply to restore moisture and flexibility. For added protection and a polished finish, apply the Soft Grease, which creates a barrier against wear, water, and sweat.

Application: Utilize the included Sheepskin Mitt to evenly distribute products and buff the leather to a lustrous shine.

Regular use of this kit will preserve the integrity and appearance of your Equipe saddle, ensuring its longevity and performance.
