17 inch Andrea Hicks (AH) Ebony VSD/WH Brown Wide

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.

This VSD/WH saddle is ideal for flatwork, WH classes and smaller jumps, hacking, TREC etc. Built on a tree similar to that in the GPJ the square cantle gives more seat room for the rider than a round cantle making it a good option for cobs, drafts and larger M&M breeds with shorter backs. It can fit a small to moderate wither as well as flatter backs. Comes as standard with front and rear gussets for maximum adjustability, an extra wide channel for wide spines and well sprung ribcages and four girth straps for custom girthing.

AH Saddles are fantastic saddles for wider/flat backed horses with panels specifically designed to fit. Overall a super working hunter/VSD saddle.
