The deep seat and poley knee pads provide a secure Australian stock riding position, while the flocked gusseted panels are designed to provide even weight distribution and comfortable contact with the horse.
Correct fit should still be confirmed by a qualified saddle fitter, particularly when selecting the appropriate gullet for the individual horse.
