A Passion for Success A Passion for Success

Saddles and accessories from the hands of a master. From Passier. Passier is “The spirit of riding. Since 1867.” A high standard to live up to. And this is done every day anew. Thus the Passier products of today are the result of more than 140 years of experience. A lot has changed since the founding of G. Passier & Sohn. Especially in riding. Nonetheless, Passier saddles, bridles and accessories are still around. And that’s a good sign. Because it is proof that quality combined with tradition succeeds.

Tradition

Quality is Everything Quality is Everything

For anyone who places value on top quality, Passier products are a wise choice. Because all saddles, bridles, girths, stirrup leathers etc. by G. Passier & Sohn are handmade. From the highest quality materials from selected suppliers. Before a product leaves our company it is subjected to meticulous quality control. This has been the case ever since 1867. And it will surely remain so in the future.

One-of-a-Kinds with Personality One-of-a-Kinds with Personality

One thing is for certain: whoever buys a Passier product gets a unique piece from the hands of a master. Every saddle, for example, receives its own number from the saddle master’s hands during production in Langenhagen – a feature which makes it unmistakable. And which can be used decades later to see which dealer it was shipped to and when. So there can be no ques tion as to the age of a Passier saddle...

Professional Development Professional Development

From the beginning, successful professionals from the fields of national as well as international riding have been involved in the development of new Passier products and their further refinement. Whether jumping, dressage or eventing: Passier has always fulfilled the highest demands in professional competition – although, or perhaps because, these demands are continuously increasing.

Perfect for Horse and Rider Perfect for Horse and Rider

Every Passier saddle has a flexible saddle tree and a wide channel which makes it extremely comfortable for the horse. Furthermore, the adjustable width of the gullet plate means a Passier saddle can be adjusted perfectly to suit the shape of any horse’s back. This can even be done a number of times. The perfect fit and resulting comfort for the horse is the primary goal – while at the same time maintaining excellent seating quality for the rider which ensures a unique riding experience. That’s the Passier feeling.

Qualified Dealers Qualified Dealers

Passier products are sold by our carefully selected dealers. We place a high level of confidence in our dealers because they ensure that qualified, personal advice is provided and this is particularly important with our saddles. Our dealers can fit each Passier saddle precisely to suit the horse’s back and thus make sure that the chosen Passier saddle fits perfectly. You will find a list of the dealers authorised by Passier on the internet under www.passier.com.

Saddles, Bridles and Accessories for Life Saddles, Bridles and Accessories for Life

As a result of its precise fit, a Passier saddle can accompany a horse and rider throughout their entire life. And our accessories are also very convincing as a result of their optimum quality, elegant appearance and great horse-friendliness. This is one significant reason why Passier is such a firmly established partner of many successful professional competition riders – as well as the first choice of many keen leisure riders who always want the best for themselves and also for their horse.

A Family-Owned Company with a Future A Family-Owned Company with a Future

Passier stands for the highest level of craftsmanship. It’s a name with a long tradition, for a company which stays in the family. This ensures that some things will not change – the things which characterize a true Passier product. Since 1867.

1867

G. Passier & Sohn is founded in 1867 by Georg Christian Passier, Regimental saddler of the Royal Ulan Regiment No. 13. He quickly establishes a clear quality concept. The company becomes the court supplier of His Majesty the Kaiser and King – a very special appointment indeed.

Georg Christian Passier 1840-1914

1901

In 1901 his son Ernst Passier, a merchant, joins the company and heads it during the First World War. After the war the company is rebuilt – the good connections abroad are especially helpful in this phase. Thus the company is able to survive inflation and the economic depression.

1850

1930

In 1930 his son Georg Passier joins the company – saddler and businessman with experience in the USA. After the Second World War the destroyed production plant and sales offices of the company are rebuilt under his management. The main focus of the company is the export of quality goods made in Germany.

Georg Passier 1907-1993

1968

1994

In 1994, 80 years after the death of Georg Christian Passier, the fifth generation joins the company: at this time, Georg D. Kannemeier, is the sole manager of G. Passier & Sohn. Today the former crafts man’s shop exports to more than 40 countries on every continent. A family-owned company with a future. Since 1867.

Georg D. Kannemeier

In 1968, exactly 101 years to the day after the founding of the company, son-in-law Jochen A. Kannemeier enters the expanding, family-owned company. Exceptionally high-quality saddles, bridles and accessories – such as saddle girths, stirrup leathers, etc. – are produced in two locations.

Types of Leather – in Top Passier Quality Types of Leather – in Top Passier Quality

Leather is a raw material that comes from a natural source – which is why meticulous quality control is so important. The ideal cut is selected from each hide for Passier saddles. This means that natural imperfections such as insect bites or scars are rarely found in hides on Passier

products. As exclusively purely vegetable tanned leather without an artificial finish is used at Passier, Passier products still maintain their natural and extremely high-quality look even many years later.

Jupa Leather

Vachette Leather

The extremely soft processed and non-slip cow hide is used in the seat and knee inserts and provides especially comfortable seating.

The smooth, extremely hardwearing cow hide is used in the seat and knee inserts. Vachette leather is the traditional seat leather which, however, has become considerably softer through modern processes.

Quality

Calf Leather

Stretch Leather

The softest, most comfortable leather that is currently available on the market and suitable for saddles, it is finished specially for Passier with a wax coating. It is used in the seat, knee inserts, and panels, and is absolutely non-slip.

According to a traditional process, the surface of the very durable cow hide is shrunk. This leather is used in the seat and knee inserts. It provides a good grip and a comfortable seating feeling.

The Leather Colors â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ultralarge Passier Selection The Leather Colors â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ultralarge Passier Selection

Black, Havana, Redwood, Sun-tan, Teak and London Colour are the leather colors used by Passier for saddles, bridles and accessories. Naturally maximum color fastness and color consistency are principal priorities as far as all leather colors are concerned. Given the right care, the colors therefore

remain consistent and, if anything, become even more attractive in the course of use. The wide selection means the perfect color is available for every rider and every horse. A large selection based on tradition because each color has its own history and its currently-preferred field of use.

Black

London Colour

Black is the typical saddle color and is used on about 80% of all saddles today. Black is especially popular for dressage as it supports the elegant appearance of horse and rider.

This light, slightly yellowy, brown is the oldest known leather color. London Colour takes on a very nice patina when used. Today it is used primarily for jumping saddles.

Havana

Redwood

Teak

Sun-tan

The warm, dark brown is the ideal saddle color for chestnuts. Havana is mostly used in Europe today in the fields of all-purpose and jumping.

This reddish brown is a warm, natural color. The leather color Redwood has been a suitably noble alternative to black since the end of the nineties.

The walnut brown resembles the color of teak furniture. Teak is the most popular saddle color in the fields of jumping and all-purpose on the US market.

The light brown, slightly iridescent shade is achieved by the natural coloring that leather takes on when exposed to sunlight. The extraordinary color ensures an interesting appearance.

PS Saddle Tree – Patented Passier Quality PS Saddle Tree – Patented Passier Quality

The heart of a saddle is the saddle tree. The PS saddle tree was developed 50 years ago by Passier, and has been continuously produced since then by our own saddle masters in Langenhagen. More than 1,200 steps are necessary to produce it. The main materials are wood and leather. In order to achieve the high degree of flexibility, several bamboo strips

are worked into the saddle tree. The models with the PS saddle tree are available in up to seven different sizes from 16” to 19”. As every saddle is made-to-measure, it is possible for Passier to produce a saddle seat in one size in combination with saddle flaps in another size.

Metal Bands | The Passier metal bands stabilize the saddle tree and also provide the necessary flexibility. Sheet metal is purposely not used in Passier metal bands so as not to injure the fibers of the steel and to thus provide the greatest possible stability. Instead, spring band steel is used which, through after-treatment, takes on a shape which is optimum for the saddle. Stirrup Bar | The stirrup bar of the PS saddle tree is made of a high-quality wrought bronze alloy which is produced according to a kneading process. This stirrup bar has extremely high breakage and tear-out strengths of far more than 600 Nm. This means that it is impossible for a Passier stirrup bar to break or tear out of the saddle tree under normal circumstances. Gullet Plate | A wrought chrome-vanadium alloy is used for the Passier gullet plate. This has the considerable advantage that on the one hand, the finished gullet plate is very stable, on the other hand however, the width can easily be adjusted again afterwards – a number of times, if necessary. Another feature are the relatively short gullet plate sides which result in greater freedom for the shoulders. Riveting bolts are used instead of tubular rivets to ensure optimum strength and longevity. Stretch Joint | The stretch joint on the PS saddle tree makes it possible to adjust the materials connected to the gullet plate to a new width in case the width of the gullet plate is changed. The wood and the especially strong and fully tanned sole leather simply “wander” with the gullet plate.

Synthetic Saddle Tree – a Result of Research Synthetic Saddle Tree – a Result of Research

The Passier synthetic saddle tree is made of an elastomere which was tested under space conditions. Its development and further refinement are a core element of Passier research. A saddle tree made of this synthetic material cannot break under normal conditions and can therefore respond successfully to the highest demands. Passier saddles with the synthetic

saddle tree are available in six sizes from 15.5” to 18”, with a ten-year warranty on the saddle tree. As every saddle with a synthetic saddle tree is a unique product from a master saddler’s hand made in Germany, it is possible to combine a saddle in one size with saddle flaps in another size.

Elastic Material | There is no stretch joint on the synthetic saddle tree since the synthetic materials used are so elastic that the material can adjust without any joint. This is how the synthetic saddle tree creates the perfect conditions for an optimum seat. On any horse. Gullet Plate | A wrought chrome-vanadium alloy is used for the Passier gullet plate which makes it extremely stable and has the considerable advantage that the width can always be adjusted again subsequently by an expert. This is why Passier saddles will always fit any horse’s back perfectly – and can even be adjusted a number of times, if necessary. A further feature of the Passier gullet plate are the relatively short gullet plate sides which result in greater freedom for the shoulders and mean the horse can move better. In order to ensure optimum sturdiness and longevity, riveting bolts are also used for the synthetic saddle tree. Stirrup Bar | The stirrup bar of the Passier synthetic saddle tree is made of stainless steel. As the rider’s safety comes first, this stainless steel bar also convinces through its extreme resistance to breakage and tearing with a strength of well over 600 Nm. This means that it is impossible for a Passier stirrup bar to break or tear out of the saddle tree under normal circumstances. Metal Bands | The very stable Passier metal band made of spring band steel provides highest stability as well as flexibility of the synthetic saddle tree.

Saddle Panels with Foam Inserts – the Soft Revolution Saddle Panels with Foam Inserts – the Soft Revolution

Passier product development strives to achieve maximum horse-friendliness. This is why all saddle models are subjected to consistent model upgrading. It is therefore a logical consequence that a decision in favour of a Passier saddle is also a decision in favour of an optimum degree of comfort for your horse. The saddle panels with foam inserts developed by Passier are a particularly good

example. Because the new foam inserts ensure an extremely soft, smooth contact area with the horse’s back. Furthermore they also mean an optimum distribution of the rider’s weight. On account of the very good experience with the saddle panels, all newly made Passier saddles are now produced with the new saddle panels with foam inserts.

Gusseted Panels | All saddles with Passier saddle panels with foam inserts also have gusseted panels. Thanks to the gussets, the surface is enlarged and the fit to the horse’s back is improved. A further advantage is that it is easier to make changes later if necessary. Foam Inserts | The very beneficial inserts consist of 10 mm Molton PUR-Ester foam with cotton backing. This foam has no memory effect which means it has excellent re-set properties. A further advantage for the longevity of the saddle is that the foam cannot be damaged during re-flocking. The saddler’s tool simply glides over the cotton fabric. Smooth Surface | Use of the foam inserts ensures an extremely soft, smooth contact area with the horse’s back. Any small bulges or holes which may occur in the panel flocking due to heavy use can be compensated for in an ideal way so that the horse no longer feels them. Wide Channel | The channel is designed of even width with the Passier saddle panels with foam inserts. This is ideally suited to the requirements of most horses and ponies and is thus particularly beneficial with regard to the sensitive spine.

Freedom Panels – the Great Freedom Freedom Panels – the Great Freedom

These saddle panels with optimized wither clearance developed by Passier are excellently suited to horses with wide or particularly sensitive withers. The special way in which they are made means wither contact will be sustainably avoided. As a result of the broader contact surface the saddle fits the horse’s back perfectly. The panels are available for all new Passier saddles.

For horses with particularly sensitive backs Passier has developed divided freedom panels, i.e. panels with optimized wither clearance which are divided at the rear in order to permit even greater freedom for the spine. The special design also means that these panels are particularly suitable for horses with short backs. These panels are available for selected Passier saddles.

Freedom Panels (Art. no. 086)

Divided Freedom Panels (Art. no. 084)

Lowered Channel Seam More space is created to the right and left of the horse’s withers, thanks to the lowering of the channel seam by 2 cm (3/4”). Contact of the saddle panels to the sides of the horse’s withers is virtually impossible.

Wider Channel The front third of the channel is especially wide, thus creating more freedom of movement for the horse’s spine in this area.

Divided Panels In addition to greater wither freedom, the horse also has greater freedom of the spine due to the individual attachment of the panels in the rear part of the saddle. This makes the channel wider throughout.

The Dressage Saddle The Dressage Saddle

Passier not only relies on its over 140 years of experience making saddles, but also on professional riders. It is therefore also a natural consequence that many professional dressage riders have now been placing their confidence in Passier products for many decades. Furthermore, for example, the Dressage Team World Champion Hubertus Schmidt, the Danish Champion and Grand Prix Winner at the World Equestrian Games in Aachen, Andreas Helgstrand, the top-level French riders Remy Issartel and Julia Chevanne as well as the highly successful Italian dressage rider Anna Paprocka-Campanella put their know-how as riders into the development of Passier dressage saddles. The very latest experiences from equestrian practice at international level combined with top saddle-making craftsmanship based on tradition made in Germany: this makes each individual Passier dressage saddle a top-class product, a truly impressive result.

Dressage Saddles

Narrow Twist The particularly narrow twist means the rider has very close contact with the horse on all Passier saddles.

Adjustable Gullet Plate Thanks to the short sides of the Passier gullet plate, a large degree of shoulder freedom is permitted. The horse is not limited in its freedom of movement. As a result of the adjustable gullet plate, all Passier saddles can be fitted to any horse and can be adjusted repeatedly. The channel is at least 5 cm (2”) wide on all Passier saddles.

Supports These differ according to the saddle model. Generally, the thigh supports and knee blocks support the optimum leg position of the rider without restricting this in any way.

Deep Seat Passier dressage saddles either have a normal seat depth or, as is the case here, they are made with a cantle which is 2.5 cm (1”) higher, the so-called “deep seat”. Only especially soft, non-slip seat leather is used at Passier.

Flocking/Foam Inserts Passier saddles are filled with synthetic flocking. This means the saddles remain in optimum shape for many years. The new foam inserts ensure a particularly soft, smooth contact area with the horse’s back – which is especially important in the case of sensitive horses.

Gusseted Panels The wedge-shaped piece of leather is sewn onto the panel leather in the back-third of the panels. Thanks to the increased panel volume, the surface is enlarged and the fit to the horse’s back is improved. It is easier to make changes later if necessary.

Hubertus Schmidt Hubertus Schmidt Dressage Saddle

Designed to Meet the Highest Standards This dressage saddle is the result of a close cooperation with the successful dressage rider and Team World Champion, Hubertus Schmidt.

Jumping Saddles

The highest demands are placed on jumping saddles all over the world. The greatest possible freedom of movement and uncompromising strain-bearing capacity are the most significant factors in the development of jumping saddles. Passier relies on its own production experience here as well â&#x20AC;&#x201C; supported by the know-how of experts like German Champion and World Cup Winner Marcus Ehning, or the most successful show jumping rider from the eastern part of Germany, Holger Wulschner, who for many years now have placed their confidence in Passier jumping saddles. Every individual Passier jumping saddle has already proved itself successful in practice â&#x20AC;&#x201C; top quality made in Germany, ready to respond to any challenge.

Narrow Twist The particularly narrow twist means the rider has very close contact with the horse on all Passier saddles.

Supports These differ according to the saddle model. Generally, the thigh supports and knee blocks support the optimum leg position of the rider without restricting this in any way.

Comfortable Seat The seat shape varies from model to model and always offers special riding comfort. Passier only applies especially soft and non-slip seat leather.

Marcus Ehning Marcus Ehning Jumping Saddle

The Finest in Comfort This comfortable jumping saddle was developed by Passier in cooperation with professional jumping rider Marcus Ehning. The extra-soft seat ensures an even better riding feeling. The thicker knee inserts for enhanced knee contact with the horse are also outstanding. The Marcus Ehning Jumping Saddle offers a choice of knee rolls or knee blocks and calf blocks. Furthermore, the freedom panels with their wide channel also make the jumping saddle especially easy on the horse. The perfect saddle for discerning jumping riders.

Phoenix

Phoenix Jumping Saddle Designed to Meet the Highest Demands The elegant French design gives a superb look to the Phoenix Jumping Saddle by Passier, which is an absolute highlight on every show jumping course and first choice for top riders such as Holger Wulschner and Ingrid Klimke. The leather has been treated with high-quality jojoba oil. The natural oil makes the saddle softer, more slipproof and smooth and offers excellent comfort to the rider as well as a superbly sophisticated look.

Passier cross-country and all-purpose saddles are simply up to any situation. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why they are also used successfully at international level by professional event riders. Ingrid Klimke for example, the outstanding Eventing Team Gold Medallist at the Olympic Games in China, has relied on Passier saddles for many years now. The quality saddles made in Germany are represented successfully on cross-country courses all over the world.

Cross-Country and All-Purpose Saddles

Narrow Twist The particularly narrow twist means the rider has very close contact with the horse on all Passier saddles.

Seat The comfortable seat offers the rider both plenty of space and good riding security. Passier only uses exceptionally soft seat leather.

Velcro Blocks The practical velcro-backed blocks make it easy to adjust the thigh supports to suit individual requirements.

Eventing

Eventing Cross-Country Saddle Freedom of Movement in Top Form This cross-country saddle is the result of excellent collaboration with the German Team Olympic Winner Ingrid Klimke. The saddle convinces on account of the very narrow twist of the saddle tree, which enables particularly close contact with the horse. The rear area of the saddle tree has been made wider to ensure the greatest possible freedom of movement. Treatment of the saddle with natural jojoba oil has made the leather even softer, more slip-proof and smoother, offering maximum riding comfort combined with a superb look. The small and large saddle flaps covered with Calf leather as well as the pre-formed knee inserts with calf inserts ensure an optimum security for the rider.

Military II

Military II Cross-Country Saddle Handmade for Great Challenges The Military II is the ideal solution for professional cross-country riders. The saddle is made without saddle flaps – to allow extremely close and secure contact to the horse. The knee and calf blocks ensure a safe seat.

The Iceland Saddle and Bridle The Iceland Saddle and Bridle

In developing this range of Iceland saddles and bridles Passier has worked together with riders and trainers of Iceland horses and thus benefited from their wealth of knowledge in order to supplement the extensive Passier experience. Passier Iceland saddles and bridles are the result of close collaboration with Anne Balslev, World Champion in Tรถlt, and the well-known horse trainer, Horst Becker. Experiences gleaned from daily dealings with Iceland horses have thus been incorporated into the creation as well as the further development of the products in order to ensure optimum results for riders and horses.

Accessories

Naturally all high-quality Passier accessories are handmade by qualified craftsmen. It goes without saying that only the best materials which fulfil the highest demands are used to make Passier breastplates, saddle girths, stirrup leathers etc. Professional riders such as Holger Wulschner, Marcus Ehning, Hubertus Schmidt, Andreas Helgstrand or Ingrid Klimke lend Passier their valuable support in the development and further development of the products. Consequently Passier accessories are not only extremely high quality, they are also innovative and trend-setting for professional as well as leisure riders.

Leather Only finest quality leather is used for Passier accessories. The leather is produced according to Passierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own particular specifications.

Fittings Passier accessories are produced either with high-quality stainless steel or with noble brass fittings.

Perfect Craftsmanship The meticulously stitched breastplates reflect the extremely high standards of Passier craftsmanship.

Martingale Attachment This breastplate arrangement is available with a closed as well as with a running martingale.

Belly Strap The belly strap with a snap hook and a practical Conway buckle convinces at a glance.

Phoenix

Phoenix Breastplate Simply Twice as Good Not only does the meticulously sewn and embossed Phoenix Breastplate from Passier’s Basic Line look very good – it is always supplied with two different martingale attachments: a closed and a running martingale. The belly strap has a snap hook and a practical Conway buckle which convinces at a glance. Leather | Finest Passier bridle leather

Features | 2 removable martingale attachments (1 x closed martingale, 1 x running martingale)

Auriga

Auriga Breastplate Simply Non-Slip The Auriga Breastplate from Passier’s Basic Line will sustainably prevent the saddle slipping backwards in the take-off phase. It does not cause any pressure points, however – not even in the take-off phase. Instead it gives the horse maximum freedom of the shoulders, avoids any rubbing and thus replaces the combination of martingale and hunting breastplate.

Marcus Ehning Marcus Ehning Breastplate

Simply Practical This meticulously-sewn Marcus Ehning Breastplate from Passier’s Basic Line with a removable running martingale attachment was developed in cooperation with the professional jumping rider Marcus Ehning. The breastplate has particularly soft padding to make sure the horse hardly feels it. Thus the Marcus Ehning Breastplate combines top quality with maximum horse-friendliness.

Corvus

Corvus Breastplate Simply Elastic A particularly convincing feature of the Corvus Breastplate from Passier’s Basic Line with a removable running martingale attachment, are the elastic side pieces. Because their stretch properties mean a considerable reduction in pressure on the horse’s withers – which is particularly advantageous when jumping deep and high. This way the horse feels less pressure and at the same time can enjoy maximum freedom of movement.

Care Products Care Products

Every quality product should be cared for properly so that its high quality is maintained for as long as possible. Passier recommends treatment at least every five days after riding, cleaning and greasing the saddle all over, including the saddle panels. In order to protect the quality leather and prevent damaging it, only Passier Saddle Soap, Passier Lederbalsam and Passier Bridle Cleaner should be used to care for Passier saddles and bridles. This will ensure that all Passier pro足ducts remain in first-class condition for a very long time.

Saddle Soap Passier Saddle Soap is an effective cleaner for all types of leather because of its low solvent content. Moreover it helps to minimize color loss. Art. no. 915 Lederbalsam Passier Lederbalsam keeps leather smooth and protects against penetrating moisture. Use of Passier Lederbalsam will prolong the life span of quality leather products considerably. Art. no. 913 Bridle Cleaner Passier Bridle Cleaner cares for leather, nourishing it from the outside as well as the inside, keeping it supple and smooth and thus prolonging its life span.

Care

Passier Guarantees Highest Quality Passier Guarantees Highest Quality

All Passier products are handmade from top-quality materials – and are subject to constant quality control during the production process. That’s how Passier saddles, bridles, and accessories meet the highest Passier standards for quality. Guaranteed. Worldwide. With Passier quality leather, for example, Passier does not insist that defects be documented within the legal guarantee period of two years. Passier examines the product itself in these cases. There is a special warranty on all Passier saddle trees. Passier guarantees – for five years on all PS saddle trees and for ten years on all synthetic saddle trees, starting from the date of purchase – that there are no concealed defects. This warranty covers all defects that could not be detected at the time of transfer, and which are not the result of improper handling, care, or repair work by third parties. Most important are the treatment of products with the care products recommended by Passier, as well as correct mounting.

Guarantee

Correct Mounting Correct Mounting

In order to maintain the high quality of a Passier saddle, it is important to mount correctly. The widespread practice of reaching for the saddle cantle to pull oneself up with the right hand inevitably leads to a twisted saddle tree. Therefore, when mounting one should reach the right hand over the seat of the saddle while on the ground. Even better is the use of a mounting block so that the back of the horse and the saddle are not strained.

The Perfect Saddle-Fit The Perfect Saddle-Fit

Only a saddle with a perfect fit can ensure that a horse can move optimally and perform at its best. If the saddle does not fit correctly, then the horse is limited in its freedom of movement and may develop painful pressure points. Passier saddles therefore can be made to fit any horse. The precise measurement of the horse’s back and three informative photos are important for this. For the pictures, first saddle the horse without the saddle pad and ride it for about ten minutes before you take the photos. Then move the horse to a level surface and have it stand straight, holding its head high. 1. Please photograph the horse from the left side with the saddle.

2. Now take a picture from the front into the chamber so that the distance between withers and the chamber can be seen.

3. Now remove the saddle from the horse and photograph the horse from the left side without the saddle.

Measuring

Measuring Made Easy Measuring Made Easy

Important for the perfect saddle-fit is the precise measurement of the horse’s back and the lengthwise line of the spine. A flexible piece of wire is suitable for the measurement (recommended is baling wire, about 2 mm (1/10”) in diameter and 50 cm (20”) long). The wire must lie closely on horse’s back so no space is left between the wire and the horse’s back.

Crosswise Measurement Distance between measurements: 15 cm (6”) 1

Scapula

The Crosswise Measurement | The wire is placed across the spine of the horse at the three points marked on the sketch, at a distance of 15 cm (6”) each. The first measuring point is two to three fingers behind the scapula. After measurement, the wire is placed on the template and traced using a fine point pen. The Lengthwise Measurement | The wire is placed along the spine so that both ends extend past the three points marked for the crosswise measurement on each end. The shape of the wire is traced on the template. Afterwards please mark the places in the drawing where the lengthwise measurement intersects with the three crosswise measurements. Then deliver this form after it has been completely filled out, the photos, and the saddle to an authorized Passier dealer or send them directly to G. Passier & Sohn GmbH, Am Pferdemarkt 8+10, 30853 Langenhagen, Germany. It takes about ten working days to make the changes.
