Frequently Asked Questions

What is a treeless western saddle and how is it different from traditional saddles?

The tree-free design promotes natural gait, better shoulder movement, and is ideal for horses with high withers or unusual conformation that are hard to fit.

Is this Hilason treeless saddle suitable for trail riding?

Yes. This treeless western saddle is ideal for trail riding and everyday ranch work. The flexible tree-free design reduces pressure points during long rides, adapts to your horse's natural movement, and is lightweight compared to traditional saddles, making it excellent for extended trail work and endurance riding.

What horse sizes and shapes does this treeless saddle fit?

This saddle fits horses with 6 to 8 inch gullet sizes and accommodates a wide range of back shapes including high withers, broad shoulders, and unusual conformations. The tree-free design molds to your horse's unique back, making it ideal for horses that are hard to fit with traditional rigid-tree saddles.

Is this Hilason saddle handmade?

Yes. Each Hilason treeless saddle is handmade one at a time using top quality full grain harness leather. The hand-tooled basketweave design is crafted with attention to detail and built to last through seasons of hard use at an accessible price point without premium markup.

How do I measure my horse for the correct saddle fit?

Measure your horse's gullet width using a gullet gauge or saddle measuring tape placed at the withers. This saddle fits gullet sizes of 6 to 8 inches. Because of the tree-free design, it also adapts to horses with high withers or unusual back shapes. If you are unsure of your horse's measurements, consult a saddle fitter or your equine veterinarian.
