Available Seat Sizes

Seat-size availability and color options may vary by retailer. Confirm the exact configuration before purchase.

Understanding the Flocked Panels

Unlike models equipped with the CAIR Cushion System, the Wintec 250 Flocked uses traditional flocked panels. This allows a qualified saddle fitter to adjust the panel material to help refine contact and balance for the horse.

The saddle also includes the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System, which permits tree-width changes using compatible gullet plates. However, gullet changes and panel adjustments address different aspects of fit. A correct gullet width alone does not guarantee that the saddle fits the horse properly.

Why Choose the Wintec 250 All Purpose Saddle?

The Wintec 250 is a practical option for riders seeking an affordable, lightweight, and versatile saddle for everyday riding. Its synthetic construction is easy to maintain, while the flocked panels offer professional adjustment options.

The interchangeable gullet system adds flexibility when the horse’s shape changes, and the deep seat and Flexibloc system provide support for general schooling and recreational riding. Its all-purpose design makes it suitable for riders who want one saddle for a variety of activities.

Care and Maintenance

To maintain your saddle:

1. Wipe away dirt, dust, and sweat after riding.
2. Clean the synthetic surfaces with a suitable saddle cleaner or according to Wintec’s care instructions.
3. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaning tools.
4. Store the saddle on a properly shaped saddle rack in a dry, ventilated area.
5. Inspect the billets, stitching, stirrup bars, and tree regularly.
6. Arrange professional flocking adjustments when needed.
7. Check the gullet and saddle fit periodically, particularly when the horse’s condition changes.

Saddle-Fitting Advice

Choose a seat size that suits the rider’s build and position, then ensure the saddle fits the horse correctly. Check wither clearance, panel contact, saddle balance, and freedom of shoulder movement.

The EASY-CHANGE Gullet System allows the tree width to be changed, but the flocked panels may also need professional adjustment. Consult a qualified saddle fitter before regular use or when changing the gullet configuration.
