i have the prototype one in leather which is brilliant. the fit is the same as the t4 / t6, but the finidh is excellent, and they fit the flat backs really well. I am waiting to see pics of the cob plus before ordering a dressage saddle! yahoo!

I saw them in the flesh when Lyle went for a saddle fitting recently. They look very good quality.

Having seen this I've Emailed them to ask for a list of local stockists, I'd be interested to see how much their changeable gullets differ in size to Wintec ones (which their biggest one wouldn't fit my pony!!)

they come up wider than wintecs - the white gullet is wider than the wintec one then the silver is wider still I now agree as I have this week become the proud owner of a T4 Pony Club saddle for Doc (wanted the T6 but they don't make it short enough for ponies ), saddle fitter came & did templates 3 weeks ago and its been made to suit, its 16.5" & got the XW gullet which fits him really nicely (couldn't get the Wintec XXW to fit at all). Eventually when he's matured I'd like to have a K&M saddle, by then he'll be substancial enough to take a 17" saddle
