Why consider this Black Country 18 inch dressage saddle?

The semi-deep seat offers a more defined riding position, while the fixed knee blocks provide a clear point of contact for the rider’s leg. The dual-flap layout is suited to the longer leg position commonly used for dressage. Its black finish gives the saddle a traditional appearance, and the medium-wide specification may be relevant for horses requiring this stated width.

The 5-inch interior gullet is included as a measurement to help with initial comparison. Saddle measurements and listed widths should not be treated as a substitute for checking the saddle on the individual horse and rider. Professional saddle fitting may be appropriate before purchase or regular use, particularly when changing saddles or assessing a used saddle.

This is a used saddle in excellent condition with the usual signs of use. Please review the photographs alongside the written details for its visible condition. As with any pre-owned saddle, a buyer may wish to arrange a professional inspection and fitting assessment. Keep the saddle clean and stored appropriately, following the advice of a qualified saddle fitter or saddler for the flocked panels and any future adjustments.
