Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Hilason flex tree western saddle handmade?
Yes. Each Hilason saddle is handcrafted one at a time by skilled artisans. This individual attention to construction ensures consistent quality in stitching, leather preparation, and finishing on every saddle.
What does 4-way flex tree movement mean?
The proprietary flex tree bends in four directions - front, rear, and both sides - allowing the saddle to move with your horse's natural motion. This reduces pressure points on the horse's back and improves rider balance and communication, especially over varied terrain.
What size horses does this saddle fit?
The flex tree is designed to fit horses with 6 to 8 inch gullet sizes, which includes most quarter horses, paints, appaloosas, and standard stock horse breeds. Available in 14", 15", 16", and 17" seat sizes.
Is the leather genuine and will it last?
Yes. The Hilason flex tree western saddle is made from full grain harness leather, which is the highest quality leather used in saddle making. It is incredibly durable and develops a richer patina with age and use, lasting many years of riding.
Can I use this saddle for barrel racing or just trail riding?
The flex tree western saddle is designed primarily for trail riding, pleasure riding, endurance, and ranch work. While the flex tree does offer responsive movement, riders focused on barrel racing should consider saddles specifically engineered for that discipline.
What's included with the saddle?
The Hilason flex tree western saddle comes with matching front and rear cinch straps. You will need to purchase a cinch separately if you don't already have one, but no other major equipment is required to saddle and ride.
