Down Under Saddle Supply Australian Saddle for Comfort and Safety

The Down Under Saddle Supply Australian Saddle, 18.5″ Standard, is built for riders who demand comfort and security in demanding conditions. Originally designed nearly 200 years ago for harsh terrain and long hours in the saddle, it remains an excellent choice for trail riding, ranch work, and endurance disciplines.

Key Comfort and Fit Features of the Down Under Saddle Supply Australian Saddle

• The saddle naturally positions the rider with feet slightly forward of the hips for better weight distribution and less knee strain.
• Suspended seat system provides more give than traditional Western saddles, enabling longer rides with improved comfort.
• Lighter and more compact than Western options, allowing a better fit across a broader range of horses.
• Serge panels conform to the horse’s back over time, offering extra padding and a more customized fit.

This saddle also features “poleys” or kneepads that enhance rider security by keeping the legs close without rubbing, ideal for sudden movements or steep terrain. The double girthing system and steel stirrup bars add safety by reducing saddle slippage and allowing stirrup leather release if the rider falls.

Measuring 18.5″ from pommel to cantle with a 5″ gullet, this lightly used saddle is in excellent condition and includes a girth to get you started on your next ride.
