Custom Saddles - Saddle of choice for Steffan Peters and Patrick Kittel,  

The fitting of the saddle is one of the most important stages when owning a Custom Saddle. The close contact and heightened feedback when riding is our main priority, so the correct fit is essential.

Custom have a number of models with tree's of differing shapes, a panel that clips off and is easy to change with panels offering different shapes which can be swapped out, together with an adjustable tree makes the saddle quite adaptable.

Custom Saddles take pride in having a forward thinking and flexible approach to manufacturing. This enables their experienced and dedicated saddle makers to work closely with our qualified saddle fitters and customers to ensure the best possible saddle fit is achieved for both horse and rider.

The perfect fit

The saddle tree is the inner skeleton of the saddle and forms a base onto which the leather is attached. Custom use a range of trees from traditional Spring Tree's to the new Hyperflex Tree.

For over four years they have been developing a much more humane saddle tree.  For the rider, and for the horse. The Hyperflex™ Tree provides both lateral and horizontal flex for optimal movement and heightened feedback when riding your horse. They have completely redesigned the saddle’s skeleton by rethinking the shape and materials used to produce it. These trees are extremely lightweight, and designed anatomically.

Straight off the rack, they’re drastically more comfortable for you and your horse. This is due to its soft curves, new materials and lack of sharp edges. They can also be adjusted on-site, so no more long waits between adjustments.

Why use an anatomically designed tree?

  • On-site Adjustability

  • Lightweight Materials

  • Balanced Weight Distribution

  • Enhanced Feedback

  • Increased comfort

  • A kinder way to ride

The Click System™ makes fitting your horse easier than ever. The panels are modular, and make changing, altering or replacing the panels effortless with just a click. 

The Pressure Relief System works with the Anatomically Designed Tree to disperse the pressure of the rider evenly on the horse. This also creates a high level of feedback and comfort when riding, resulting in the ultimate connection between horse and rider. 


An unlimited number of panel shapes, and a completely adjustable tree means your saddle will be able to adapt and change to your horses evolving structure, resulting in the perfect fit.

To avoid unnecessary pain, distress and expense we strongly recommend that you use a qualified saddle fitter. Saddle4You believe that a saddle isn't something you just sit on, we view it as an important piece of performance equipment designed to encourage the best possible connection between you and your horse. Harmony is the key to a good relationship; this can only be established if you choose the right saddle for you, your horse and the intended discipline.

The Pressure Relief System (PRS) works with our redesigned tree to disperse the pressure of the rider evenly on the horse and to add stability. This also creates a high level of feedback and comfort when riding.

Available with all saddle models

 

Redesigned Tree

Our tree provides a flex for a higher freedom of movement and heightened feedback when riding your horse. We have completely redesigned the saddle’s tree by rethinking the shape and materials used to make it.
