Freeform is an Italian brand of treeless saddles and accessories. They are genuinely handmade in Italy and not elsewhere in the world. This applies to all their products! The saddles consist of 2 to 3 parts: a "base" for the horse, supplemented with Velcro pads or a pad with inserts, and a "seat" customized for the rider. 100% Symmetry Fr Show more
Mono stirrup leathers made from vegan Leathertex material. With non-removable Velcro stirrup attachment. Available only in black.
The Freeform Enduro seat is a flat seat with mini sweat flaps attached. The front is equipped with thigh rolls. These mini sweat flaps ensure a smoother transition from seat to base.
The Freeform Classic seat is the first treeless saddle seat developed by Freeform. This is the leather version with thigh blocks. The thigh blocks provide the rider with extra support.
The Wave mono stirrup leathers made of leather are slightly wider than standard mono stirrup leathers. They have a loop instead of a Velcro stirrup attachment, making them suitable for all saddles with a stirrup hanger hook.
This fork can be ordered for Freeform Western saddles to replace the current fork if a different size is needed. Suitable for Freeform Allround Western and Small Butterfly. Available in the same colors as the saddles. Delivery time is approximately 8 week
Freeform is an Italian brand of treeless saddles and accessories. They are genuinely handmade in Italy and not elsewhere in the world. This applies to all their products! The saddles consist of 2 to 3 parts: a "base" for the horse, supplemented with Velcro pads or a pad with inserts, and a "seat" customized for the rider.
Freeform saddles are made with a unique technique. The foam, from which the bases and seats are made, is molded and then covered with high-quality Italian calf leather or, if desired, vegan leather. This ensures that the saddles are always 100% symmetrical in the base, despite being handmade.
The soft structure and flexibility of the foam allow horses and ponies not to be hindered in their movement, similar to other treeless saddles. The horse's back can bend, improving the vertical and lateral movement of the spine.
In a Freeform saddle, the rider sits directly behind the withers to minimize pressure after the 14th vertebra and to give the shoulder blades complete freedom of movement. The seats, customized for the rider, help place the rider's weight at the horse's center of gravity.
Unlike Barefoot treeless saddles, Freeform saddles feel more like a "normal" saddle but with the familiar close contact feel of a treeless saddle due to their flexibility. The seats do not provide a wide sitting feeling and are therefore also recommended for riders with hip problems. With the various seats available, you can choose the one that best fits your buttocks and thighs.
Freeform saddles have been tested and compared with other treeless saddles using the PLIP pad. It has been shown that Freeform has one of the best pressure/weight distributions.
As mentioned above, Freeform saddles consist of multiple parts: a base, seat, Velcro pads, and/or a pad with inserts. There is no one-size-fits-all solution for all horses and riders, so various combinations can be made. Additionally, there is a vast variety of leather and vegan leather types to choose from. First, we are happy to help you find the perfect combination with our saddle fitting service. We also bring samples of all leather types so you don’t have to rely solely on pictures. Once you've made your choice, we order your saddle, which has a delivery time of about 8 weeks.
Bases: Standard, Short, and Extra Short
Seats: 15 to 20 inches
Weight: average base + seat 3.5 kg
A 20-inch seat cannot fit on an extra short base, but a 17-inch seat can fit on an extra short base. This means there are also solutions for short horses and riders with a bit more seat.
