Frequently Asked Questions
What does 4-way movement mean in a flex tree saddle?
The flex tree provides movement in four directions - left, right, forward, and backward - which allows the tree to conform to your horse's spine and shoulders during movement. This reduces pressure points, improves blood flow, and allows better communication between rider and horse compared to rigid fixed trees.
What size horse does this saddle fit?
The proprietary flex tree fits horses with 6 to 8 inch gullet sizes, which accommodates most quarter horses and standard western horses. Gullet size refers to the angle and width of the tree at the withers. Check your horse's existing saddle or measure the gullet opening to confirm fit.
Is this saddle handmade?
Yes. Each Hilason saddle is handcrafted one at a time by skilled artisans using traditional techniques combined with modern construction standards. This individual craftsmanship ensures quality attention to detail in leather work, stitching, and hardware installation.
What type of leather is used in this saddle?
This saddle uses full grain harness leather, which is the highest quality leather available for saddle making. Full grain leather retains the natural surface, resists cracking, and develops rich character with age and use - improving in appearance over time.
Can this be used for barrel racing?
While this saddle is designed for trail riding, ranch work, and pleasure riding, the flex tree design with 4-way movement and responsive fit makes it suitable for various western disciplines. Check with your barrel racing organization for specific equipment requirements if you compete.
What cinch straps are included?
The saddle includes matching front and rear cinch straps that attach to the d-rings. These allow you to set up the saddle with either a single cinch or double cinch system depending on your horse, riding discipline, and personal preference.
