Barefoot cheyenne saddle

[Deleted]

A friend of mine has been looking for one of these and has decided to order one form the horse and harmony website, I,m sure someone has ordered one from them just wondered if they were good to deal with, also she is wondering whether to go for the limited edition green saddle and just wondered if anyone had seen one.

hi
i have had mine a week now and think its fab. i havnt seen the green one and katja at horse and harmony is brilliant to deal with. highly recommended. these treeless saddles can look a bit 'westernish' but soooooooooo comfy and make you feel so secure. my pony is 420kg and i got the 65 size girth, it is plenty big enough. the dressage leathers are one length and too long for me at 5'3" i had to alter mine. i got a size 1 and the standard numnah. any more questions just ask

I have one too and I am really impressed. Mine is the standard brown , but I was very tempted by the blue one LOL.
Echo everything Karen says! Horse and Harmony were very helpful.

I also have one - standard black one and I am really impressed with it. Very comfy to ride on and has really helped to get Bow to use her back - she has new muscles coming there after only a few weeks. You feel really close to their movement. i think its great and H&H were good to deal with - very prompt. Jill

H&H are great to deal with. Have bought and exchanged a number of items off of the them and can't fault their customer service. Wish I could buy all I need from them.

OH has the standard black saddle, which is actually a sort of bluey grey colour- very nice. He's so pleased with it that I got a bit carried away with the credit card last month and bought him the two tone blue one. It's lovely. Not quite the same shade as the one in the website. It's a sort of air force blue and very pale blue. Cantle is also made of very dense foam and not fibreglass like the standard saddle.
Happy as I am with my own Dartmoor I might just be tempted if they evr bring a purple one out. I collect saddles like some women collect handbags.

Does the black fade to grey quite easily?

I'm really keen on trying a treeless, the barefoot in particular and black would be my colour of choice. I'm just worried about the fading issue?

I'm trying out my instructors today, so I'll let you know If I was to buy a treeless I'd probably go for either a barefoot black or Trekker black with a physio pad (seeing as I'm a little on the large side )

Our's hasn't faded to bluey grey colour, it was like that to start with. If anything it has darkened with use. I believe somewhere on the website it was advertised as soft black. If you ring Katja at H&H for advice she is very helpful but not pushy.
Don't know what the trekkers like but I've seen black Dartmoors and Torsions and they are a very black black (if you know what I mean) but you're then moving into quite a different price range.

I know, can't afford them! Lol.
