Frequently Asked Questions

What is a treeless western saddle and how does it differ from a traditional saddle?

A treeless western saddle has no rigid wooden or synthetic frame. Instead, it flexes and moves with your horse's back and motion. This 4-way flex design reduces pressure points, allows greater shoulder movement, and adapts to horses with challenging back shapes making it ideal for trail riding, pleasure use, and horses that are hard to fit with traditional tree saddles.

Is this Hilason saddle handmade?

Yes. Hilason treeless saddles are handmade one at a time by skilled craftsmen using top quality full grain harness leather. Each saddle is individually crafted with hand-tooled details, ensuring consistent quality and durability without the premium price tag of mass-produced alternatives.

What size should I choose for my horse?

This saddle fits horses with a 6 to 8-inch gullet size. The seat sizes available are 14", 15", 16", and 17". Measure your horse's gullet (the opening under the horse's withers at the base of the neck) to ensure proper fit. Treeless saddles are also more adaptable to horses with high withers or wide shoulders than traditional saddles.

What is included with this saddle?

The saddle comes complete with a matching bridle, collar, and front cinch strap. You receive the full tack set ready to use. The saddle itself features a deep 5-inch cantle, anti-slip stirrups, and a 25-inch skirt length.

Can this saddle be used for barrel racing or just trail riding?

This treeless saddle is versatile and can be used for trail riding, pleasure riding, ranch work, barrel racing, and endurance riding. The 4-way flex design and comfortable seat make it suitable for various disciplines where adaptability and freedom of movement are valued.

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

Clean the hand-tooled basketweave leather regularly with a soft brush to remove dust and dirt. Use a quality leather conditioner every few months to maintain suppleness and protect the tooling. Store in a dry location away from direct sunlight to preserve the hand-finished black color and leather integrity.
