Humphries & Swain half suede saddle fitted with FLAIR is perfect for dressage or showing as it has half panels allowing total freedom of movement through the shoulders.
It measures 9" D to D and my horse was a wide fitting, I'm unsure what the saddle was made as, but due to the flair the width can be adjusted easily. The length of seat is 16.5" from cantle to pommel however the pommel is inset slightly (as you can see from the photo) so I have also measured from the button to the cantle, which measures 18". I am a size 10/12 adult and it fitted me just fine, although may have been a bit big. Photos available if required.
There are all of the usual wear marks on the flaps, knee rolls and seat but the leather work and girth straps are in great condition. The knee blocks are detachable and the girth straps are not the long dressage ones, which makes this saddle suitable for showing too. The Flair is perfect for youngsters changing shape regularly, or those prone to loosing/gaining condition, as it is easy to adjust and really comfortable for the horse, moulding to its shape and providing a soft cushion. The special Humphries & Swain tree also allows the saddle to flex with the horses movement, maximising comfort and performance.
£400 ONO.
