Oakland Trainer Saddle

The full roughout leather provides a tactile, non-slip surface that helps the rider maintain a secure seat. This is particularly useful during training sessions or when working with young horses where stability is essential.

Pre-turned fenders are designed to reduce the torque on your knees and ankles by setting the stirrups in a natural riding position right out of the box. This eliminates the need for a long break-in period and helps you maintain better balance in the saddle.

These additional dee rings are strategically placed to allow you to attach training aids, such as draw reins or other equipment, directly to the saddle. They provide the versatility needed to customize your setup when starting young horses or refining specific maneuvers.

Yes, the adjustable rigging allows you to change the position of the girth to better fit your horse's conformation. This helps ensure the saddle stays secure and balanced, preventing it from shifting during more intense training work.

This saddle is built on the High Horse DURAhide Equitation tree. DURAhide is a durable, synthetic coating applied to the wooden tree that adds strength and weather resistance without adding unnecessary weight.

The saddle weighs 28 pounds. While this is a standard weight for a sturdy training saddle, it is balanced enough to be manageable for daily tacking up and handling in the barn.
