Frequently Asked Questions
Is this saddle handmade?
Yes. HILASON flex tree saddles are handcrafted one at a time using traditional saddle-making methods and top-quality full grain harness leather. Each saddle is individually constructed by skilled craftspeople to ensure durability and quality.
Can this saddle be used for trail riding?
Yes, this flex tree saddle is ideal for trail riding. The 4-way flex tree design provides responsive movement and better communication with your horse. The deep cantle, anti-slip stirrups, and secure seat make it suitable for long trail rides and western pleasure use.
What size horses does this saddle fit?
The proprietary flex tree is designed to fit horses with 6 to 8-inch gullet sizes. This adapts well to most quarter horses, paints, appaloosas, and similar builds. If you're unsure about your horse's gullet measurement, consult with a saddle fitter.
What is the difference between a flex tree and a rigid tree?
A flex tree allows movement and flexibility while maintaining support, moving with the horse's back for better comfort and balance. A rigid tree is fixed and does not flex. This saddle's 4-way flex tree enhances rider communication and reduces pressure on the horse's spine during trail riding.
Does this saddle come with cinches?
No, cinches are not included. The saddle comes with matching front and rear cinch straps. You will need to purchase compatible cinches separately to complete your setup.
How do I care for the hand-tooled leather?
Clean with a soft damp cloth and mild soap. Dry completely and apply a quality leather conditioner periodically. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and moisture. Store in a cool, dry location to maintain the leather and preserve the hand-tooled finish.
