Saddle Seat
How do I know how large of a seat my dressage saddle should be?
I am in the market for a dressage saddle. How do I know what saddle size I would fit in best? I am a size 4-6 if that helps at all. I'm thinking a 16.5-17" saddle-is that good? Or should I be looking at a 16-16.5"? My horse has a shorter back and needs a medium tree-so I have that squared away. Just the seat size is left! Thanks!
I'm 5'4"! Thanks so much for the help!
You really need to try the saddles. Also, the deeper the seat in saddles, the larger size you will need. Depending on how tall you are, I'd try a 17". You'll probably need a 16.5 or 17", but you really need to sit in the saddle to make sure that it's the right size for you (saddles are like clothes, you need to try them, as the sizes do vary).
Hope this helps and good luck!
