New Compact dressage saddle from Passier
A new dressage saddle has been launched by German saddlery company Passier.
The new Compact dressage saddle has been specifically designed and developed for horses with shorter backs.
“The era of compromise has ended as the Compact combines a short contact surface for the horse with a significantly larger and more comfortable seat size for the rider,” said a spokesman for the company.
“Size really does matter and this innovative saddle perfectly meets the demands of both horse and rider.”
The saddle panels are designed to allow the horse greater freedom of movement through the shoulder and withers. The saddle is made from jupa leather.
The Compact dressage saddle costs £2,599.
