“Simply the Best Dressage Saddles on the Market”
-Steffen Peters - Three time USEF’s Equestrian of the Year Award winner
The Custom Saddlery Wolfgang Solo Jr. is one of Custom Saddlery’s most popular models for pony riders. The Wolfgang Solo Jr. has countless customizable options— like pink or blue accent colors— so riders can create the saddle of their dreams. But it’s more than just good looking— - Wolfgang Solo Jr. is a single-flap saddle with a tree that can be used on broad ponies with flat backs, but can also be fitted to ponies with more wither. - The seat of the Solo is designed to support the rider while giving freedom in the saddle. - The saddle’s soft, supple combination of buffalo and buffalo premium full-grain leathers give an instant broken-in feeling, and the single flap design eliminates bulk, giving tremendous feel of your pony. - The outside knee rolls also increase the rider’s closeness to the pony.
