The Bates WIDE All Purpose Saddle features a truly high performance seat that delivers a level of comfort and contact never previously experienced in a WIDE saddle.
A deep seat and ultra narrow waist enables you to sit deeper into the saddle for a well-balanced and central position.
Maximised saddle stability is ensured with the adjustable Y-girthing system offering even distribution of pull from both the front and rear of the saddle. It is absolutely critical that you adjust this system equally on both sides of the saddle. The panel is ultra generous offering an exceptionally large footprint on your horse’s back maximising the weight bearing area of the saddle for greater comfort and performance.
Experience the power of innovation with instantaneous comfort, security and balance, ensuring the most luxurious seat for leisure riding, flatwork and some jumping.
Your horse will show a marked improvement in their freedom of movement, as world leading performance systems the EASY-CHANGE Fit Solution and CAIR Cushion System maximise your horse’s comfort and freedom of movement. Your horse will enjoy unsurpassed adaptability for an optimal fit, even weight distribution and fluid cushioning for their total comfort. The Bates WIDE All Purpose Saddle features the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System WIDE offering you the choice of four interchangeable gullet plates (1XW – 4XW).
