Freeform Virginian Western Saddle Including Seat
Please note: When you order here, you are purchasing the base of the saddle with the corresponding seat and fenders. Stirrups, Velcro cushions, and cinch must be selected and ordered separately.
Features of the Freeform Western Virginian Saddle:
The Freeform Virginian features an extra deep and narrow seat, which can help with hip issues or provide more security. The fork is narrower, offering greater freedom in your leg position and more room for your thigh if it is fuller.
Like other Freeform Western models, it stands out with its adjustable seat length, allowing for a perfect fit for the rider. This is also convenient for accommodating different riders. It comes with an interchangeable fork available in 5 different widths, distinguishing it from many other Freeform models that use aluminum flexible pommels. There are also 4 different types of Western cinching systems available, making the saddle adaptable to various horses. The saddle's underside is typically covered with synthetic wool, common for Western saddles. However, you can choose a non-slip Sympanova underside or Sympanova with Velcro for attaching Velcro cushions underneath, providing more stable positioning or additional spine clearance. The saddle is delivered standard without leather tooling, but this can be added at an extra cost.
