Seat Material:
Padded smooth leather
Grainout or Leather: This seat is easy to maintain, is smooth and
wipes clean and repels water.
Roughout or Suede: This seat has the neat suede look, is softer to
the touch and provides a more secure fit.
Padding: Most trail, show, barrel, roping, reining, endurance and
cutting saddles have padded seats, though many cutting saddles have very
little to no padding. Many ranch saddles and some cutting saddles have
no padding.
-
Cantle:
4" with silver lacing
The cantle is the upright part at the back of the seat of a western saddle.
The cantle provides support for your lower body and also comfort while
riding. Roping saddles usually have a lower cantle (3 to
3.5") making it easier to lift your leg over the saddle when
dismounting. Trail and reining saddles usually have a medium
height cantle around 4-5"" and Barrel Racing and Ranch saddles
often have higher 5" cantles.
-
Swell:
13"
The swell is the widest distance from the outside ends of the fork - it is
the part of the saddle that the horn is on top of. A
wider swell will give you more leverage and security where the narrow
swell will give you more room to maneuver your legs.
-
Horn:
Low trail horn
Different riding disciplines use horns differently. A trail saddle
usually has a horn easy to grab hold of where a roping saddle has a
reinforced horn that is thicker and with a larger cap. A show saddle
usually has a low ornate horn. Read more.
-
Rigging:
3 way - in skirt
There are two main aspects to rigging: position and hardware
Position: Can be Full, 7/8, 3/4 or Center Fire. The
3-way rigging gives the option for Full, 7/8 or 3/4. Click on the link
below for more information on rigging.
Hardware: This determines the strength (and also bulk) of the
rigging. Often Rope and Ranch saddles are double rigged directly to
the tree, where most other saddles use in-skirt rigging. Read more.
- Hardware:Stainless steel
-
Skirts:
26.5"
Round or Square: Many short backed horses require shorter
skirting. The round skirts do not extend down the same that a square
skirt does and provides relief for short backed horses.
Length: Most saddles have skirt lengths ranging from 24.5" to
28" This is a general skirt length given as a 14" seat will
have a longer skirt than the same model with a 17" seat.
Close Contact: Some saddles have butterfly type skirting that is
cut-out a bit behind the fenders. This allows the rider to have closer
contact with the horse being able to give better cues.
-
Stirrups:
Trail, leather covered
The shape of stirrups are usually bell, oxbow (round) or square (aluminum
trail/endurance). They also can be wrapped in leather or the stronger
rawhide. Some saddles come with the option of having oversized
stirrups for the larger boot.
-
Saddle Weight:
Approx 28 lbs
Most leather saddles weigh between 25 lbs. and 42 lbs. Often the tree
determines much of the saddle weight along with the rigging used. If
the saddle has a back cinch and leather tie straps and off-billets the
saddle weight will be several pounds higher.
- Features:Well cared for, gently used saddle. Great condition

Read about Chuck's experience buying used saddle on Ebay. |
Welcome to buying risk-free used saddles. Our saddle experts find only the best used saddles for sale. Once we receive a used saddle, it goes through the following reconditioning process:
- Step 1: A thorough cleaning and oiling.
- Step 2: Inspection of the saddle tree and leather parts for soundness. Saddle experts replace/repair as needed.
- Step 3: Proper measuring. We measure the trees and seats. The average rider does not know how to properly measure a saddle and many times what the saddle is advertised as on Ebay or the classifieds is completely inaccurate.
- Step 4: A professional photography session. Photos are not doctored to misrepresent the saddle. (If the saddle above has amateur photos, the saddle is most likely waiting in line for them).
- Step 5: The saddle is offered with free shipping and a two week return policy. We dare you to find such a generous used saddle guarantee. Buying a used saddle doesn't get better (or safer!) than this.
