The included bridle and cinch strap make it immediately ready for use.

How do I care for the hand-tooled leather on this saddle?

Hand-tooled harness leather requires regular cleaning with a soft brush and occasional conditioning with leather oil or saddle conditioner. Wipe away sweat and dirt after each use, store in a dry location, and apply conditioner every few months to maintain the oil-tanned finish and prevent cracking. Avoid excessive water exposure.
