Western and American saddles for horses
Our Custom Western and American saddles must first of all fit the horse’s back correctly, to protect its health and to improve the quality of your riding time or your competition result, while at the same time giving the rider the most suitable position: comfortable in the saddle and free to communicate with the horse.
In our western saddle range you will find many models conceived and crafted by master saddle makers who, as true leather artisans, create small Made in Italy masterpieces.
The lines
The best western saddles for horses
The leather used for our western saddles is of superior quality: Italian vegetable-tanned or American pit-tanned. Every saddle is built using the finest seat hides, available in a wide range of colours, trees imported from the USA with a 5-year warranty, and distinctive conchos that further enrich the saddle.
How customisable are our western saddles?
Our American saddles are fully customisable, and not only aesthetically. Beyond the unique artistic touch of our master craftsmen, every western saddle is personalised with technical attention to the individual client.
The saddle is made to measure to fit your horse’s back, protecting its health and therefore the quality of your riding time or your competition result.
At the same time the most suitable position for the rider is identified, so that in the saddle you are comfortable and free to communicate with the horse.
Two goals that have always led us to evaluate different types of tree, varying wither openings, bar angles and length, fork and cantle height.
Tooling
More than 150 tooling patterns, carved by hand
What makes every customised American saddle from our brand absolutely unique is the possibility to choose among more than 150 different types of tooling, drawn and “carved” by hand by our skilled saddle makers. Painstaking, attentive work that brings leather to life with basket weaves, flowers and arabesque. A true work of art.
We create and build American saddles for horses, but we are Italian! Every one of our products, from the most affordable to the most expensive, is customisable at 360°: Custom, meaning Made to Measure — the word that identifies our company.
