Why is it important to get measured for a saddle?

Buying a saddle is an important decision and so it is always beneficial to get advice from experts who will listen to your needs and be able to see and measure your horse. They can give you the professional advice you need to make this important purchase. This will result in the best saddle for your horse and you.

Every horse and rider is unique. From horses high withers and curved spines to riders, with all lengths of legs we have made saddles to fit them all. We know that when it comes to a saddle there is no such thing as a universal fit.

Like many other items you buy tailor-made, when you measure you get something that fits better and a saddle is no exception. We only work with trained saddle fitters, who also know how important a proper fit is for safety, horse health, horse performance and to improve your comfort, balance and stability.

Your saddle fitter will assess the shape of your horse, take lots of important measurements and help you to choose the Frank Baines saddle that will suit your needs.
