Experience the perfect combination of comfort and style with the X-Trail saddle. This unique saddle seamlessly blends an English pommel with a Western cantle and stylish fenders, offering a harmonious mix of features.
 
The rigging flap of the X-Trail protects the rigging from abrasion, although it does not provide knee roll support. Standard options for the X-Trail include the Dressage Pommel or Dressage Reduced Pommel, with the additional options to upgrade to Dressage Narrow, Dressage Reduced Narrowed, or the Dressage Reduced Pommels.
 
Additionally, the X-Trail comes standard with a 4" Western Cantle, but it can be upgraded to a 3.5" Dressage Cantle or a 4.5" Tall Western Cantle, offering flexibility and customization.
 
The X-Trail seat is meticulously designed, with a forward pommel like our English models and a wide, supportive cantle behind the rider. The standard smooth seat can be upgraded to a roughed-out full seat for enhanced grip.
 
X-Trail saddles are measured using English seat sizing, ranging from 16" to 18". The standard 2" Stirrup Leathers and X-Trail Fenders come with velcro attachments, allowing riders to adjust them for the optimal riding experience.
 
Convenient trail rings located at the rear and sides of the seats enable the attachment of cantle packs or water bottle holders, facilitating a comfortable and enjoyable riding experience. Breastplate rings are included for attaching an English or Western breastplate, and each flap features lower front and lower rear non-structural rings to secure saddle bags and minimize movement.
 
The X-Trail saddle is a perfect choice for trail riding, providing unparalleled comfort for both horse and rider with numerous customization options to create an ideal riding experience.
