Product Specifications

Available Saddle Sizes

Choose the seat size that best suits the rider. Availability should be confirmed before ordering.

• 15-inch: Pony and smaller-rider applications, depending on fit
• 16-inch: Smaller to medium adult riders, depending on fit

Why Choose the Equitare Tempo Synthetic Saddle?

The Equitare Tempo is designed for riders who want a versatile saddle without the maintenance demands of traditional leather. Its synthetic surface is convenient to clean, and the adjustable knee blocks provide flexibility for different riding preferences.

With its all-purpose profile, padded knee rolls, and practical girthing arrangement, it can serve as an everyday saddle for schooling and recreational riding. Correct saddle fitting remains essential for horse comfort and rider balance.

Care and Maintenance

• Wipe away dirt, sweat, and hair after each ride.
• Clean the synthetic material with a damp cloth and a suitable mild cleaner.
• Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaning tools.
• Allow the saddle to dry naturally before storage.
• Store it on a suitable saddle rack in a dry, ventilated location.
• Inspect billets, stitching, stirrup bars, and other load-bearing components regularly.

Saddle-Fitting Advice

Have a qualified saddle fitter assess the horse’s tree width, wither and spinal clearance, panel contact, and saddle balance. The plastic tree and available seat sizes do not guarantee a correct fit for every horse.

Check both rider comfort and horse movement before regular use.

Ordering Information

Please confirm the required seat size and color before ordering. Verify stock availability, saddle condition, and included accessories with the seller. Stirrup leathers, irons, and other fittings are not included in the standard product listing.
