The ultimate connection with the horse is achieved with a seamless, ultra-narrow transition from the seat through the length of the leg. The new Adjustable Stirrup Bar gives the rider the option of three stirrup leather positions to suit different body types and riding preferences. In addition, the shape and support at the rear of the seat provides maximum rider comfort.  

Made of the finest leather, this saddle features grippy covered leather flaps. Support for the dressage horse comes through the anatomic shaping of the tree, a generous panel design and world-leading performance systems, including the CAIR® Cushion system. The saddle fit may be adjusted with the EASY-CHANGE™ Gullet and EASY-CHANGE™ Riser Systems.

CAIR panels use air cushion technology to distribute the rider’s weight comfortably and cushion the horse’s back. Air offers shock absorption and works with the horse’s muscles to ensure a close, even contact over a large weight-bearing area while reducing pressure points.

The EASY-CHANGE™ Gullet System lets you select—and change—the optimal tree width for your horse’s current shape and muscling.

The EASY-CHANGE™ Riser System allows you to make minor adjustments within the saddle panels for optimal balance and clearance.

All Bates® saddles feature the finest, hand selected European leather. You can be confident that the leather in a Bates® saddle is the best in the world, and if cared for, will offer many years of riding. Leather is a natural product and its life relies on maintaining a certain level of moisture. By following the steps below your saddle will perform for many years.

Prior to being ridden your new saddle should be liberally dressed with Bates® Leather Balsam. The balsam offers a surface barrier and protects against wear, water and sweat. Allow it to soak overnight for maximum absorption and protective sealing.

Regular cleaning of the saddle with glycerine saddle soap and a damp cloth or sponge will remove dirt, which can scratch the surface. Follow the cleaning with an application of Bates Leather Balsam or Bates Leather Cream to all areas of the saddle that are not suede. Apply a heavier application to high wear areas.

Keeping your Bates® saddle clean will help it achieve the traditional, rich patina of aged, worked leather and your saddle will bring you excellent years of service.

*We do not recommend the use of oil on a Bates® saddle.
