Super smooth service

I recently ordered a saddle from the saddle bank for their 5 day trial, the saddle arrived quickly and safely. The saddle fitted the horse but I just didn’t quite love it, so ordered a similar model which again arrived quickly, I phoned the saddle bank explaining this and that my saddle fitter was due out in a few days, they happily extended the trail of the first saddle by a few days so I could show the saddle fitter both. Luckily the saddle I fell in love with fitted the horse well so I sent the other saddle back that afternoon which was a very easy process and I was kept informed of the whereabout and refunded very quickly. I can’t recommend them enough 🙂

A Good Experience

Thank you. Your website made it easy for me to find the perfect saddle for my pony. The website is easy to use and the saddle arrived speedily. The first saddle I chose was not the right one and I received the refund quickly. The second saddle I chose was a perfect fit - thank you.

Great for buying & selling

I’ve sold a few saddles through the Saddlebank now, but this is my first time purchasing and it’s been great. Used their advice service to get a view on the saddles I thought might work before I ordered, which was a great help. Saddles were totally as described & very fairly priced compared to similar on sales sites where you wouldn’t have the option to trial and return, and great to have the option to try a few. Again, the support during the trial and offer to check for is really helpful. Really impressed.

Saddler recommended saddlebank. And I would highly recommend now also. The whole process to sell was easy steps and quick and the quote offered was fair. Thanks

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.

This saddle works well on various wither and back profiles, depending on the tree it is on.

It is available on the Classic tree, which is a standard tree for standard wither and back profiles, Freedom tree, which is a lower profile and broader head and flatter throughout. This works well on Warmblood, Quarter Horse, Arab and Draught types. Dippy tree, which suits horses with a sway-backed, and Native tree, which is a wide head and shape suited to Native types with some shape to their back. Show Tree, which features a wide head with some shape to the tree, making it suitable for ponies and native types.

As the saddle is wool flocked, your fitter can make on-site adjustments to fine-tune the fit to your horse’s shape as needed.

Please check the features to see which tree this saddle is on.
