The Henri de Rivel Pro Buffalo Leather Dressage Saddle is beautifully crafted with quality buffalo hide to ensure longevity. Reinforced billet straps provide additional durability. Great for various levels of competition; the moderately deep seat gives a closer feel of the horse s back while the padded flap with a concealed knee block give additional leg support. The flocked panels allow for optimum equine comfort if you suspect your horse s back may be changing.
