I went to horseback the other day, after visiting my horse at school and was looking at the saddles, I wanted one with more grip incase of horse having a hissy fit, at least I'd have more grip!!
Looked at both wintec and bates and usually I'm a synthetic snob, but I think the new bates saddle leather isn't as nice looking's the old one.
And beside that there was a price difference of about £700 for the little bit of leather that does show as the rest is suede!
I tried it on the mechanical horse and my god it is so so so comfy- my arse didn't budge they really are a notch up from the old version!!
I went for the wintec pro jump, as I intend to xc in future- just hope it fits tommorow when I go and see him
